David Goffin

Gibberish like this is an embarassment to Wikipedia. Over 1000 Google hits for the name, but none seems to be both verifiable and notable. One hit co-lists the name along with Carole King as the #18 greatest songwriter of all time - but then there's no allmusic.com page for this name, which raises my suspicion meter. Also, the name comes up as a producer for some of Mark Burnett's reality shows, but I'm not sure that cuts it anyway. Delete, unless one of these two is verifiably notable. -- BDAbramson thimk 02:30, 2005 May 10 (UTC)

  • Delete. Gerry Goffin is the notable songwriter who was married to Carole King and wrote some of the classic songs of the sixties with her. The article claim that David Goffin is the songwriter who wrote "Chains" later recorded by the Beatles but our Gerry Goffin article states that the famous Goffin cowrote the song with King and Allmusic.com credits the song to Gerry Goffin/King.
