Rod learned his piping in his early teens, under the Pipe Master Jock Campbell in Scarborough Ontario, Canada. He was in a boy’s pipe band that progressed to be one of the best bands in the Highland Games in Ontario, Quebec and the northern states of America. He was a lovely friend of the Drum Major, George White, his wife Mae and family He was also welcome at our house, my brother Rob was also in the band with Rod. They practiced at the Scarborough Rec Centre at Warden and Ellesmere. We travelled with them to competitions, Fergus, Kingston, Kincardin,Maxwell,Alma NY,any weekend Games for the support of the band and the boys. Jock was a Master Piper from Scotland and my father was a locally taught piper from Toronto who believed in the boys, so he gave his help in teaching Rod was very accomplished, with many awards in competitions, as we’re all band members with their piers who were their elders Rod was always polite and curtious to all. The persona that he displayed , I believe is what he wanted to put out as hi act, not who he truly was God Bless You Rod, love Nance ] (]) 11:25, 12 September 2024 (UTC) |

There is a challenge to wether Piper was the youngest wrestler ever. Rey Mysterio started in wrestling when he was 15. If you look at Mysterio's birthdate and when he joined, you will see he join when he was 15. So that part about Piper being the youngest needs to be changed. ] (]) 18:47, 30 September 2008 (UTC) |

Piper did not start at 15. He was 19 and his first match was against Tony Condello. He has been lying about this for years. I invite anyone to look this up. <small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 06:43, 18 June 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

==Piper "was named as the top villain in wrestling history by WWE"?== |
|
|
I'm here to challenge the inclusion of this. WWE is not an independent source, and I feel their opinion on what Piper did has little value. If Slam Sports says he's the best villain ever, that's fine, but WWE hyping one of their employees is different. ] (]) 14:12, 24 October 2015 (UTC) |
|
|
:The two sources that I added are independent sources, but you deleted them both. This establishes notability for the claim. ] (]) 15:24, 24 October 2015 (UTC) |
|
|
::They're not independent ''opinions'', though. ] (]) 19:51, 24 October 2015 (UTC) |
|
|
:::That's my point exactly. The fact that multiple independent reliable sources give the same information demonstrates that the information is notable. I get that you don't like WWE's opinions or think that they should be taken as fact; Misplaced Pages is a place where statements that are verifiable in independent reliable sources are believed to be sufficiently notable for inclusion, however. ] (]) 21:14, 24 October 2015 (UTC) |
|
|
::::So if a record label says "the new album by our contracted artist, x, is the best ever recorded!" and the statement is published by ''Rolling Stone'', that makes the non-independent label hyperbole notable for the artist's lede? I think not. ] (]) 13:42, 25 October 2015 (UTC) |
|
|
:::::I don't think such a quote needs secondary sourcing for inclusion, though we need to make sure we're noting the source, which we do. Being the best ever is a big deal. If it's repeated by secondary sources then that should be indisputable. This is a notable opinion which has received sufficient coverage and it belongs in the lede.] (]) 16:02, 25 October 2015 (UTC) |

::::::For the record, the secondary sourced that DYSDY deleted are and , but the claim is also reported in several other reliable sources, including this Entertainment Weekly article: . ] (]) 16:10, 25 October 2015 (UTC) |

I'm not sure that he actually lost his legends contact. Is the source really reliable? <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 03:18, 6 December 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
