Talk:Wham!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
RE: this: "In November, they released I'm Your Man which went straight to #1 in the UK charts.". It didn't - it had a week at No.2 before it went to No.1 if I remember rightly. Please change this if you like. Jim Mason.
Young Guns was the first hit single and Wham Rap the second single. I will change the text. You can do it now. If you don't do it, I will do it sooner or later. Crimson 19:29, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Capitalization
Throughout the article, the name is shown capitalied, as WHAM!, but the article is at Wham!. Should it be moved? (I'll move it myself if no one objects). Dylan 15:49, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- Is the band's name even capitalized in such a fashion? I've always known it to be "Wham!". --Matharvest 07:45, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
- A similar discussion made with the German group Neu!, while it was often written in capitals as NEU!, it's use was a symbol. But it was really Neu! I agree that it should be changed back. Chadwholovedme 13:25, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Referring to artists
The artists should be referred to as "Ridgeley" and "Michael" not as "Andrew" and "George." Lmr5069 18:32, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Question
Is Wham! gay?
[edit] Sources/References
There seems to be a lot of unsourced material and speculation in lines like:
- "George's father had just fired his son from the family's restaurant believing he overloaded the dinner plates" or "the contribution of Ridgeley as the group's image specialist and spokesman was crucial to the band's initial success"
Whoever added some of this more anecdotal info needs to source it, or it shouldn't be here. - AKeen 16:03, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know how to add sources (and that wasn't me who wrote it either) but I know that the second comment can be sourced to the George Michael documentary that came out in England two years ago. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.183.100.99 (talk • contribs).
[edit] Please Write From a Historical Perspective
These pages are not intended to be the George Michael announcements service, and the tone of the last two sentences is approaching user confrontion, which I'm all for if placed on THIS page and not in the article itself. Please try to keep in mind that you're writing for the ages here (or hopefully you are intending to...). As such, notices with short-term intent do not serve the article itself and are perhaps mistreating the usage of the Wiki as intended by its creators. Thank you to all who respect others contributions and especially to those who constantly clean up after me, I appreciate it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.183.100.99 (talk) 06:34, 5 December 2006 (UTC).
