I've been working on this for a while, adding bits and pieces, tidying up, I have also tried to set up a discography and enter details for all Roys albums etc...
It's a bit of a Herculean task at the moment, as is the job I'm doing! but if there are any Wiki' editors here, or anyone who can think of any corrections, names, links or other information that should be entered then feel free to do so. Alternatively, post the details here and I'll try and update the page as soon as I can. I am good at data sifting and structure, but when it comes to reviewing songs or albums from a purely musical / technical aspect I wouldn't know where to start! Obviously I know what I like and why I like it, but I'm simply not a musician.
What I'd really like, is to get the discography completed, but this involves setting up new pages, formatting them correctly, research (photos, links, reviews etc...) and also battling the 'Wikipedants' who seem to want to remove a lot of information! So, any help with the discography section would be wonderful (I can then work on the text later).
Remember, it is supposed to be an encylopedia so there's an element of factual 'coldness' or neutrality to the articles, but I really think Roy's worthy of a decent article. There are many links from him to other articles and individuals, and vice versa, and hopefully (at least in this little piece of cyberspace) Harpers influence and importance can be established and elucidated.
Thanks.
