ITN covering the hoax

The ITN article on the death hoax is hilarious, it claims "a hacker altered his wikipedia page"... its nothing to do with hackers, anyone can edit Wikipedia, god you think they'd at least do a little research before making stupid claims like that. Just shows how little the media know about the net doesn't it? TR (talk) 13:41, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I HEAR PEOPLE VANDALIZE WIKIPEDIA IS IT TRUE???? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.134.29.205 (talk) 17:35, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

yeah, it can be fun —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.163.252.120 (talk) 05:59, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is he related to Peter Kay?

Just a thought, seeing as they're both called Kay and come from Bolton --80.194.5.154 10:51, 6 June 2006 (UTC) HOW CAN I EDIT THIS PAGE???? Not as far as anyone is aware. --Robdurbar 11:34, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No. Coincidentally they are both Catholics and of very similar age, but did not attend school together since they lived in different parts of Bolton. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.38.221 (talk • contribs)

Given that this user 81.99.38.221 has been inserting the name "Pradeep" in various articles, I wouldn't trust anything written by him - I don't believe they both came from Bolton, either. Stephenb (Talk) 08:53, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why wouldn't you believe they both come from Bolton? They do!

Horwich

Does anyone know what part of Horwich he lives in, or where abouts he got married there?

He grew up on Whitehorse Close, at the top of the Pennine Road estate, until he was a teenager, when his family moved to the estate behind the Beehive. He was married at St Mary's RC Church, Chorley New Road, Horwich, and had the reception at Rivington Barn.

I am one year younger than him and grew up on the estate behind the Beehive pub. I have no recollection of him. Does anyone have an exact address or street name so i can try and tie it down? e.g. Purbeck Drive

Mr Blobby

I'd like to see a source for the claim he played Mr Blobby on noels house party 82.46.233.8 18:27, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where did they get married??

On Vernon´s page in Wikipedia it says that he married Tess Daly in Horwich near Bolton, but on Tess´s page it says that they got married in Skelmersdale near Wigan! Not that it matters greatly though! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.96.73.243 (talk) 21:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He is not gay!

It says VK is gay but he isn't. I would revert it but someone has protected it, even though it is in a vandalised state! 86.144.203.127 (talk) 14:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The offending material has been removed. --Jza84 | Talk 14:33, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Then maybe the incident should be noted in the article then (oh the irony) Looneyman (talk) 18:01, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Has the offending account (Or ip) been blocked (Oh and i wish Kay was dead, he’s so ANNOYING!) :D? Celtic Muffin&Co. (talk) 12:31, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What are you, twelve years old or something? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.134.198.65 (talk) 06:36, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And also, they got it wrong, this article was not hacked it was vandalized! And have you noticed just how a much a big deal MSN and Yahoo are making of this??? Like it's more important than the lehman brothers story... Celtic Muffin&Co. (talk) 12:45, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Then maybe the incident should be noted in the article then! Mark J (talk) 13:34, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It has Celtic Muffin&Co. (talk) 14:06, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It has been in the news, but it doesn't need to be in the article. This is not what he's notable for (TV is), and it's not an important part of his life. Further, in edge cases WP:DENY requires we exclude such content. Superm401 - Talk 09:45, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
