Naming convention[edit]

This article says "Bruce" a lot. Shouldn't it be "Simpson"? Also, what happened to the missile? The article doesn't say. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.143.59.118 (talk) 11:07, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

article issues[edit]

The issues mentioned in the tag are that the article may need additional references, and could use cleaning up and expansion. Beeblebrox (talk) 07:43, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Column on xtramsn website[edit]

He had a column on the XtraMSN website for a few years. The site was number one website in NZ at the time so probably rates a mention if somebody can find a ref. - 203.99.66.20 (talk) 00:19, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bruce Simpson (blogger) → Bruce Simpson (engineer) – AFAIK, Mr Simpson is better known as a radiocontrol engineer than as a blogger - especially considering his patent filings. I propose that this article be moved to Bruce Simpson (engineer) whilst leaving a redirect. BrxBrx(talk)^{(please reply with { {re|BrxBrx}})} 02:12, 14 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. There is no evidence that he is even a professional engineer - certainly the artticle doesn't talk about this, and this news story: [1] gives his occupation as "internet developer". In any case, it's for his blogging that he's famous, not his engineering. — Amakuru (talk) 13:47, 21 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
