Proposed major edits

[edit]

As a proposed ARIA Hall of Fame act the article should be at least B-class or better: consequently I will be making major edits to this article and intend to include reliable sources and provide a neutral tone. Interim edits may look disorganised or incomplete and may take about over a week or more.Dan arndt (talk) 07:49, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good effort Dan. I've carried the torch a little further along: I think its B-class now (I might be biased).shaidar cuebiyar ( talk | contribs ) 09:07, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Where does "Paul" come from?

[edit]

Given that JPY's birth name is John Inglis Young, the article needs to clarify where the "Paul" came from to distinguish him from Johnny Young. WWGB (talk) 01:27, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, this still needs to be clarified. 115.166.40.89 (talk) 03:11, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
 Done, "Paul" was his Catholic confirmation name.[1] WWGB (talk) 01:23, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

“Origin”?

[edit]

Not sure what the “Origin” in the box-out means - he’s clearly born and grew up until age 11 in Scotland, but has been in Australia the majority of his life - so Scottish-born Australian might seem to be a fair and good description - but “Origin: Sydney” doesn’t convey anything to me - what does it mean?

Per infobox template documentation, "The town, city etc., from which the singer or group originated (that is, the place where the group was founded; or where individual performers started their career, should it not match the location of their birth). So Sydney it is." WWGB (talk) 01:41, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
