Rough Trade has already been made here and if that doesnt make someone noteworthy... Wiki's greatest worth is its depth and scope. Clearly we dont want bogus information but when something or someone is clearly varifiable, the inclusion is of benefit to all. The NME site has a great clip of GK with 80's popstar, Hazell Dean. Thumbs up!

This is aside from the fact that
Knowledge cannot source itself (even if it had been written by someone different). Accurate or not, a link to a quote that someone called George Kimpton worked for Pinnacle Records, and a single book on Amazon don't really answer the questions of notability, or that

I have just used the George
Kimpton article and was linked to this discussion page. Firstly I would like to commend Wiki for this forensic policy. I note that most of the points I intended to offer in support of GK's page have broadly been made in this discussion. Evidence of his directorship of

Thank you for your replies. As the mention of George
Kimpton was added into the Pete Waterman Entertainment article by the same editor who has almost single-handedly edited the George Kimpton article, I don't see that this adds anything to your argument for notability.

the article seems to have been written self-promotionally and needs a lot of things backed up with verifiable references. Your first-hand experience is not relevant as we have no way of knowing you are who you claim.

I have worked in this area of the U.K. music business for many years and I find the content of this article to be largely accurate from first hand experience and I can add further evidence to support it.

Mr
Kimpton sounds like an interesting chap, and he could be notable if all his, sorry, the article's claims could be supported by RS. But they aren't.
