Copyvio

[edit]

I have removed the "Music career" section as it is a straight ripoff of the text found here, and therefore a copyright violation. I might also add that the language was hardly NPOV, and there were some serious writing blunders in the section, too. If somebody would like to write a nice, neutral, factual section about Roy Acuff's career, that would be wonderful. I'd do it myself, but since I am neither specifically a Roy Acuff fan nor generally a country music fan, I fear I would not do it justice. Kelisi (talk) 10:39, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have now reinstated the text that had been there before an anonymous user plastered the article with the copyvio junk. Perhaps this will do. Kelisi (talk) 10:47, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've re-written most of the article, with the exception of a few stray sentences. The trivia section also appeared to be a copy-paste, and most of the info in it was either incorrect or unnecessary, so I deleted it. Bms4880 (talk) 21:00, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List of Songs + Info

[edit]

Could you create a list of all songs by him(you can get it off of allmusic.com) and create a page for each one? Describe where he got the tune from and where he got the words from, unless he created it by himself...not sure how many he created by himself but I'd say there are a good few... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.50.171.227 (talk) 15:08, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
