Unlock please
I can't edit this one. I'm a huge Michael Jackson fan. Just saw Robbie Fulks do his tribute to Michael called "Happy" and I got drawn back into my fascination for the the Jackson family. Please unlock. I'd like to add some material. Nate 00:54, 25 March 2011 (EDT)
Unlock please?
I want to work on this one while working on my ongoing musician project. I would greatly appreciate it if someone would unlock it. Thanks!!!--JamesWilson 20:29, 17 August 2011 (EDT)
Muslim?
I did a little research, and found plenty of controversy as to whether he converted to Islam or not. A number of sources say he did: [2] [3].
Most sources said he did, but I found one which disagreed [4]
Here's an wiki article on it by "wikiislam.net" [5]
Does anyone know if this is true? --David B (TALK) 18:59, 25 July 2017 (EDT)
- Since Jackson's lawyer denied the claim, I think you should drop it. In addition, you just have news tabloids as news sources.
- And Jackson died about 10 years ago and interest in him has waned - especially since there is so much news happening right now that people are really focused on (Trump, etc.).
- So I don't think it is worth opening this can of worms.
- But maybe you were not asking in terms of the article, but were just personally interested. Either way, I think it is best to move on. There doesn't appear to be anything in terms of solid evidence. Conservative (talk) 19:41, 25 July 2017 (EDT)
