Talk:Greg Page (musician)

Regarding Greg Page album:

DOB must be wrong

Born in 1972? He looks much older than that. And I can't believe he's 19 years younger than Jeff Fatt. Are we sure about these DOBs?24.21.139.41 07:21, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't know about the exact DOBs, but I've heard before that Greg is about 20 years younger than Jeff. e.g. their interview on Enough Rope http://www.abc.net.au/tv/enoughrope/transcripts/s886402.htm Rocksong 11:15, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Family?

Why have all references to his family been deleted? According to Google, the article once mentioned his wife and two children...why was this info removed? -Grammaticus Repairo 16:29, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Re-edit

As I have done with other Wiggles articles, this page has been completely overhauled. I deleted all information that I couldn't back up with sources, and added other stuff that I could, like his discography. I cleaned up the content, corrected errors, and fixed links and sources. I believe it better follows Wikipedia's policy on the bios of living persons.

I tried, but I wasn't able to find anything about Greg's cricket involvement. His name is still on Cricketcoach.com, but I didn't put that here because I suspect that site hasn't been updated in a while, since it had no mention of Greg's illness. If anyone can find that source, please add it back in, because it is very interesting.

I also deleted the names of Greg's children, as per Wikipedia's policy on privacy and on the bios of living persons. Figureskatingfan 06:12, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Correction

Greg Page met Anthony Field when he became a member of the road crew for the Cockroaches. Anthony then convinced Greg to come to his school and take up early childhood education because working as a member of the road crew was limited in dureation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.197.78 (talk) 23:29, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Oh, really? I've done extensive research on The Wiggles, and this is the first I've heard of it. From what I understand, as this article and The Wiggles state, Greg attended Macquarie University to become a preschool teacher right out of high school, and that's where he met both Anthony and Murray Cook. If you could give a source for this information, that would be great, because if it's true, it's very interesting. --Figureskatingfan (talk) 23:55, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

Associated content

This site pays anyone to write articles on any subject. The writers are paid by the numbers of visits their stories receive. Thus it qualifies as both self-published and spam, as they have clear economic reasons to create these links. This is the full reason I removed it in the first place. If there is no source to back it up, it should not be included. Stealthound (talk) 17:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Stroke

Does anybody know if Greg ever had a stroke? I ask this because in his later years with the Wiggles, the right side of his mouth doesn't move when he talks/sings. It looks like a person who had suffered from a stroke? But I've never seen anything to indicate that he had.Balloonman (talk) 03:48, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

B, I haven't seen anything about this, either. If it were true, I'm sure that The Wiggles would've disclosed it because they tend to tell the truth to their audience. I looked at the video they made with Greg announcing his retirement, and it does seem that he favors the right side of his mouth a little bit. However, I think that's more due to the fact that he's talking about a difficult thing and trying not to be upset. Of course, that's just conjecture, and I have absolutely nothing to back it up with. --Figureskatingfan (talk) 05:12, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Watch his mouth from anything from about 1998 forward and you'll notice that he favors one side of his mouth. In the earlier videos he doesn't, but it is very prominent in later ones. Again, I haven't seen anything to support this, so it is conjecture. But I was wondering if anybody had an explanation for it?Balloonman (talk) 05:15, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

I found a lot confirming that Greg Page had a stroke, just nothing confirming this Greg Page did.Balloonman (talk) 05:28, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Greg page met geoff Fatt because geoff was in a band w/ Field. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.0.49.238 (talk) 18:51, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Angelbear

It's really strange. Greg is the patron for Angelbear (based in Uk I think but sends worldwide). Ive seen the link on here but someone keeps removing it. I KNOW he is patron as its all over his official website. I'll keep putting it back on as I am sure his fans like to know the charities he supports. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Princesspea161 (talk • contribs) 09:06, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

There's nothing strange about it. The reason your addition continues to be reverted is that it violates WP policy. Please see WP:SPS, which explains why self-published sources like personal webpages do not constitute a reliable source. It looks as though you or someone else is adding this information from either multiple computers or usernames; that violates yet another policy called sock puppetry. I can tell you that if you continue, the information will continue to be reverted, and you'll be banned from editing Wikipedia (see WP:3RR). I recommend that if you want to add the information, find a reliable source, like a newspaper article. If you need any assistance, ask; I'm more than happy to add it if you tell me your source.

Coping with OI

Article about how Greg has coped with his illness: [1]. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 18:29, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

Other contributions.

I have reason to believe that he also directed a 1993 children's Bible stories VHS produced by Pro-Kids Productions by the name of Barry Bear's Very Best Bedtime Bible Stories. Made by Designer Music Inc and distributed by Brentwood Music. Still looking into it though. SubtleSquirrel (talk) 16:32, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

If you can find a reliable source, then by all means add the information, please. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 16:57, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

That's a different Greg Page HERE and HERE2 from Nashville, TN -AngusWOOF (talk) 16:58, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

Oh! Well then, guess I was wrong, thanks for the information. SubtleSquirrel (talk) 17:10, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

No prob. That he's involved in videos for children's entertainment would confuse me too! -AngusWOOF (talk) 19:53, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

HELP !!

Can you Look at the IP's of the Vandal's? it's the Same Guy. I think this needs to be Investigated thank you Jena (talk) 17:31, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

There's not much to be done here. Beyond whatever we may learn from IP addresses, I'd say the content of the edits makes it rather obvious that it's the same person. The article already is subject to pending changes protection, and the frequency of vandalism is reasonably low. Compare WP:RBI. Huon (talk) 18:44, 1 January 2018 (UTC)
