Beo fada, Stuart Adamson.(Long live, Stuart Adamson).

Father's travelling

[quote] Adamson's father was in the fishing industry and travelled the world.[unquote] What was he fishing ? What kind of fishing requires a man to "travel the world" ?? Surely this sentence is an exaggeration, not by the Wiki original editor - because I have seen this quote bandied around for donkey's years. It just seems like romantic b.s. What's the furthest a fisherman would travel ? North Atlantic ? Newfoundland Coast ? for Cod. That's not "the world". The story is also told that his father was an engineer for the oil industry. So seems there's no core verifiable facts about Mr Adamson Snr. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.88.11.140 (talk) 14:05, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Which leads us back to Wikipedia:Verifiability. There should be a reliable, third party source included for all claims of this kind (for that matter, in every Wiki article). Unfortunately, this rarely happens; and hear'say, fancruft, urban myths and complete bollocks creep in everywhere. It is possible that his father was a fisherman, and separately travelled the world for pleasure - but either way, it needs a source.
