Following this claim up. --Ngb^?!? 14:47, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone can format and clean up the article, Bamacher. You don't need an administrator. Heck, you don't even need to be registered. -- Ci e lomobile ^{talk / contribs} 04:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clean-up wikification done. Couldn't find any evidence of a copyright infringement and there was no argument for lack of neutrality so those tags have been removed. Madmedea 18:02, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What form of "roots" music did he play?[edit]

I have a question that I came upon while copyediting this article for the League of Copyeditors. In the Style section, one of Downing's musical styles is listed as "roots." There are currently four kinds of "roots" music listed on the Root (disambiguation) page: revival roots, American roots, roots/world music, and reggae roots. Which one did he play? Please clarify and link to the appropriate type. Galena11 21:52, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
