Can anyone get permission from Iain Lee to use a photograph on this page? --DaveGorman 12:28, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Most Vanadlized idiot Pages

Due to the constant bad jokes etc I've added this to Misplaced Pages:Most vandalized pages. Joe D (t) 18:01, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

To All of Iain's Correspondents

If you are a one of Iain's correspondents and have a website, Please add it into the external links. --RaptorX

I will have to delete some correspondent's websites (Even mine), if they are not a correspondent anymore. --RaptorX 10:09, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Iain or Ian?

IANLEELOVE has been moving the page from Iain Lee to Mr Ian Lee & Replace Iain with Ian & In some cases the person has replaced it with Lee --RaptorX 17:25, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

I have moved the article back again from Mr Ian Lee to Iain Lee. The "Mr" prefix is contrary to Misplaced Pages style. Whether the guy's name is "Iain" or "Ian" I do neither know nor care. Lupo 10:26, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

It's "Iain". If you see it changed to "Ian" then just do an RV.

To IANLEELOVE (talk · contribs): this page stays here (or just maybe goes to Ian Lee, I have no clue about that). It is protected against moves now, thanks to your repeated unilaterally moving it to titles that are against Misplaced Pages style. Lupo 13:29, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

• It is Iain according to Stephenb (Talk) 16:24, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

• I'll believe you when he changes his official Iain Lee website... Stephenb (Talk) 17:07, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

IainLeeLove, surely you realise by now that you cannot win against the all encompassing collective mind of the Wiki? Resistance is futile and merry Christmas.

Wisdom Jones Paragraph

I think lots of Wikipedians (Including me) miss out the paragraph about Wisdom Jones. --RaptorX 10:50, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

This Discussion Page look a bit of a mess!

I think this talk page should be split into sections. Do you agree? --RaptorX 10:50, 24 December 2005 (UTC) :)

Agree Let's do it.--Westminsterboy 13:00, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Where the source?

Would the boy working for a certain stock market broker in Bishopsgate and who has been libelling various people on the Misplaced Pages for some time please stop - now. You know how corporates are getting touchy about the misuse of their Internet connections, especially when things like libel or porn are concerned and server logs are readily available.

Legal threats are a little drastic, don't you think? Anyway Misplaced Pages has a Misplaced Pages:No legal threats policy. Further threats of lawsuits will result in you being blocked from editing.

If contributors to this page continue to leave unsigned messages they may find those conributions edited out.--Westminsterboy 21:50, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Artice Stubing

I think the article should stubed because it only tells about the his LBC show & it doesn't tell enough about rest of his shows. (e.g. Celebrity Soup, RI:SE & more) --RaptorX 10:32, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Most Vandalized Pages

The amount of tiresome vandalism is increasing.

I therefore propose to edit protect this site for a while to allow the vandals to turn their attention elsewhere.--Westminsterboy 00:32, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

So how will this edit protect work --RaptorX 10:58, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Temporarily block anonymous edits.--Westminsterboy 07:52, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Ok --RaptorX 15:56, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Administrator says 'intensity of vandalism not high enough for action'--Westminsterboy 21:22, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Raptor, your link doesnt work from my School or Home PC, it simply comes up with a blank page, thus I will again delete it. --JamieHughes

It's working for me, it will work for most people so please don't delete it --RaptorX 18:32, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

http://groups.msn.com/SWRPCoruscant/misc.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=197 - There is a screenshot of how a PC (have tried on 3 different sources) views your website. Please fix this soon or I will remove it again. --JamieHughes 08:00, 17th February 2006

Okay. I was wrong. Many apologies. --JamieHughes

You're always wrong!

Coming out on Monday's Program!

WHAT RIGHT do people have to remove the FACT that he said he was gay on air? You must go through the discussion page first before you remove material entries. 160.83.73.14

I agree this should have gone through discussion before ANYONE deleted the gay entry. . JamieHughes

EXCUSE ME people who listen to the program made genuine comments. It is wrong to just delete them. 84.13.249.206

I was amazed to hear that Iain come out on his program that he is gay! Please keep this in the article as I definatly heard him say it. 160.83.73.14

I always thought it was the case, he just blurted it out on Monday! Brucethebiggaybear

It was the funnyest thing on radio, I was surprised he had a boyfriend! Rolandaslondon

I heard it too - could we put a section in referring to it? ZoeCroydon

It went to air on Monday. Please do not remove. LBC 97.3 Radio Show

hi dont cuss iaian its just plain rude

Iain Lee's Sexuality

I agree 7 people have backed up the gay remark. This deserves to be in the article. It was on the air on Monday. It is even in the Podcast ZoeCroydon

He admitted he was Gay on air Monday. I heard it too. Jimboiain

I've put it back in, though I don't know if it needs to be in the lead sentence where I put it. A lot of you have accounts so in a few days they'll have aged enough to edit the article as you see fit. (To clarify, once your account is four days old you can edit semi-protected articles.)

Why on earth is this article vandalised so much that it took this long to get the information in? --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 15:13, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

===the reference to Iain's sexuality has been discussed here and should not be deleted === I don't care if it appears further down but it should appear. I am gay and feel it is very offensive and HOMOPHOBIC if the reference is constantly deleted. 160.83.32.14

I agree, why are people so homophobic here? Jimboiain

Assume good faith please, Jimboiain (and everyone else). I find accusations of homophobia offensive (even non-specific ones) and will not bother to work to include his sexuality in the article if involving myself with it is going to leave me open to speculation about whether I am a homophobe or not. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 15:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks and sorry, it's just that it is so hard to come out and not fair for people to delete without referring to this page! By the way, his sexuality should be a bit higher in the article - it is an important part of his persona. Jimboiain

Having initially put it back in, I'm now inclined to agree with Arniep that this is actually a hoax. A Google search made me think that this was true. However, I didn't look closely enough - there doesn't seem to be any confirmation that Lee is gay apart from the comments here.

Given the extensive vandalism to this page, I'm not putting the gay thing back in - and will take it out if someone else does - until I see a reliable source, such as an official press release or transcript. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 15:43, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

10 people have gone on the discussion page to verify this, I heard it on the radio too. You can look up his podcast. Jimboiain

10 editors are not verification - see WP:NOR. The podcast, however, would be. Do you have a link to it? I'll have a listen when I get home from work. If you could tell me at which point he comes out so I can fast forward through the traffic news etc. that would also be appreciated. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 15:48, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

The link is on the page, not sure what time but it was Monday. He came out and said he was Gay and made a comparison between him and Clive Bull as far as I recall. 160.83.32.14

Where on which page? Now that Westminsterboy below has claimed that he has said on air that he is not gay, I'm even less inclined to believe this. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 18:42, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

If Iain Lee were gay it would be homophobic to delete references to such a fact. Since he has made it clear on air (Thursday 9th March passim) that he is not any such reference will continue to be deleted.--Westminsterboy 17:41, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

I have downloaded all of Iain Lee's podcasts from the last 2 weeks. There are no reference to his being a homosexual. Note: none of the editors who claim he is gay has a user page and all use similar puntuation and grammar. I am led to think of sockpuppetting. Minglex 14:18, 11 March 2006 (UTC)Minglex

Just to clear this up, I actually listened to Monday and think he is gay .--JamieHughes

I just heard the podcast on Monday and he definatly came out as gay. There are a couple of (personal attack removed) on this site that are ganging up on the majority of users who say he is gay. 160.83.73.14 11:52, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't matter that the 'majority of users' say he is gay, everything in Misplaced Pages must be sourced, and so far my request for this mysteeeerious podcast that everyone claims to have heard has gone begging. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 12:04, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

He said he was gay by accident. The fact is I and a lot of people thought it was real. 84.13.94.159

may I suggest this

A large number of people reported that Iain made a comment saying he was Gay on Monday 6th March, 2006. At present this is unverified.

160.83.73.14 13:31, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Nope. Misplaced Pages cannot be a source for itself. OTOH, show me an official press release or similar where Iain Lee says "I deny the widespread rumours that I am gay", or a gossip column in a half-decent tabloid (not a blog), and that would be a reliable source that these rumours aren't confined to this talk page. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 19:52, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Why are people so against the fact that Iain is gay? He admitted it today on the radio and Clive Bull just confirmed it. I will email him and put the email here, is that good enough for you HOMOPHOBES!!!! 84.13.75.0 23:19, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Assume good faith please, editors are trying to create an article based upon factual sources and if verifiable evidence can actually be produced (it looks unlikely) then it will be included. I note that not including the 'information' (highly questionable) that a straight man is homosexual is not homophobia.Minglex 23:36, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

One sock-puppeting contributor is not evidence.--Westminsterboy 08:03, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

There a a number of people ( the majority) that know Iain said he was gay. That was a very HOMOPHOBIC comment. I am gay and I do not like to be told I put socks on my penis. THAT IS TOO FAR!!!! 160.83.73.14 10:19, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

This place is a little homophobic to be honest . JamieHughes 10:22, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

So where did you say that podcast was, Jimmy? --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 10:46, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

If you go to the lbc website you should find the link. Monday 7th. . JamieHughes 10:59, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Ah, so it's subscriber-only. Convenient. I'm taking Westminsterboy's word for what Iain Lee says in his programmes until I have reason to disbelieve him. --Sam Blanning (formerly Malthusian) (talk) 14:13, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I heard him say it too on yesterday's podcast, include the reference please. Sorry guys . Westminsterboy 15:07, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

SO YOU SHOULD BE YOU HOMOPHOBE! Why did you disregard the rest of the wiki community???? I am gay and hate this type of behavior. 160.83.73.14

I heard him say he was gay yesterday too. What is wrong with being gay? I agree this is becoming a homophobia issue. ZoeCroydon 13:50, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
