If you don't like the link to the list of his published articles, fair enough; but it was one link and gave a lot of his work for anyone who wants to know more about his contributions. The personal interview link should definitely be re-instated. Also not happy about suggestion to drop this page because Dennis Elwell is very notable amongst astrologers. He gained a lot of press coverage for warning P&O ferries about an upcoming disaster on one of their ferries, recommending them to double-check their dafety procedures. Their letter to him saying they had nothing to worry about was in the post as the P&O ferry, Herald of Free Enterprise disaster occured. Lots of information and references to that on this page - http://www.skyscript.co.uk/shipelwell.html

I won't add that link in case you think I'm spamming and get paid for linking to it or something, but someone should.

And MakeSense64, can you remove that 'spam tag' from my user page. I've never had any controversy here nor any warnings or even one single comment on my edits before now. No one even bothered to welcome me when I joined up but when I have added my bits of info it has alsways been good, informative info not spam.

I want to get an answer to my comments cos I'm pretty annoyed at being labelled a spammer just for trying to help. If someone else agrees that my link to his interview was out of place then I'll definitely leave this page well alone and won't add any more links of that nature. I think I should reinstate that interview link so please speak up and let me know if you don't want me to do that ] (]) 14:52, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

I know Dennis's precise birth data, but as I'm not sure he would want it published, I'm witholding it. MayoPaul5 13:27, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Removed some spam -- Serious concerns remain for this article, even though it was tagged months ago. -- Notability concerns because references are still very weak, since it only links to a single trivial mention in a non-notable book. WP:NRVE MakeSense64 (talk) 09:00, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
