Quote from article: "Overall in his role in Guns N' Roses, Clarke was never featured on any of the bands official studio material, but was featured during half of all 192 shows played during the Use Your Illusion world tour and most of their music videos."

- This makes no sense. He appeared on the Spaghetti Incident, did he not? The article says so just a few sentences earlier. This entire entry reads like it was written by a 12 year old. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.100.189.26 (talk) 20:41, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Corrected, indeed it seem pretty silly considering that 3 of his releases with Guns N' Roses are listed in his discography. Cleaned up some of the page, will work on the rest, especially the solo years, later. HrZ (talk) 21:17, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good deal. I appreciate you looking into it. As an aside, I came to this page over the weekend because Gilby appeared live on a Cleveland, Ohio radio station, WTAM 1100, this weekend. He was interviewed on former democrat congressman Jim Trafficant's radio show Saturday. Is it true he was recently involved in a serious motorcycle accident? Should that be mentioned here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.100.184.112 (talk) 02:14, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think he did, will need to look up more sources but im pretty sure he posted it on his twitter? Although im not sure how serious it was, not sure if it should be added or not though HrZ (talk) 07:18, 9 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What do we all think of Gilby Clarke, was he any kind of replacement for Izzy when he joined G n R.

Not sure if what we think of him makes any difference. I am only here because we were born on the same day, SqueakBox 16:01, 3 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Do we censor starfxxxers?

No, only f-words, SqueakBox 05:28, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Gilby Clarke[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Gilby Clarke's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "symph":

From Chinese Democracy: "Four Bust-ups and a Single!". RAW magazine. November 1994. Retrieved April 24, 2015.
From Guns N' Roses: "Four Bust-ups And A Single!". RAW magazine. November 1994. Retrieved April 24, 2015.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 11:35, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
