Change of "depression which suggests Bi-Polar disorder" to "depression which possibly suggests Bi-Polar disorder". Depression alone does not suggest BPD without a manic component and this is not re-enforced by the article. The balance of the article 'suggests' an exciting and wild life, but without an explicit statement that this was the result of mania, a diagnosis of BPD is unsupported.

Having said that, in the spirit of de-stigmatisation, and explicit statement in an article that Godfrey lives or lived with BPD would be most welcome. L-Bit 06:58, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As a long-standing Enid fan and possessor of more disks than are actually listed in the discography (e.g. the blue vinyl "Dambusters March"), I wonder whether "Something Wicked.." really merits its own section when most of the other (mostly non-compilation albums) are only mentioned by title. OK, SWTWC was important in that it expanded Enid's appeal, but the thematics of the other albums might be regarded as relevant to the band's history. If no-one has any objections, I might change the discography to a table, including short thematic descriptions as well as adding in the stuff I've got.

I agree with Rodhullandemu; the original article lacked balance and didn't do full justice to the band. The Enid need (and deserve) a full bio, but I'm not sure if I have the time to start one off. If anyone is interested in doing so, there is some excellent archive material on the band's website at [1] and some interesting new stuff at Francis Lickerish's MySpace page. If no-one objects, I'll track this page and pitch in with odds and ends as time allows.--Wessexboy 15:45, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fine, I don't have much time myself at present. The article does need some references to back the history up, and though I didn't know Francis had a page it's not generally considered useful to link to Myspace pages. I've also started Robert John Godfrey if anyone's interested. --Rodhullandemu 17:15, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but they need to be supported by evidence external to Wikipedia, and they're not. However, I will try to speak with Robert this weekend - I need to discuss his own page anyhow. Debates like this really should be documented in the Talk pages in any event, in case there needs to be a review.

2021 update[edit]

The following message was added to the article by @Cadacman:: I've removed it and copied it here, as it's more appropriate for the article's talk page:

I, Robert John Godfrey (cadacman) will be updating this page over the coming weeks to reflect the band as it now is. I have made a start. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any reason.
