Who edited Jon’s photo and clipped Bob out? Why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:B603:E601:528:796F:DEA7:E282 (talk) 20:42, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article continues to say that Jon denied the relationship with George. This is not true. During the Culture Club reunion in the 1990's, he acknowledged that he had a sexual relationship with George and that he loved George deeply, although he is now married with several children. Also Jon never denied having a relationship with George, he merely declined to speak about it publicly claiming that it was a private matter and really no one else's business. --Glindathegood 17:07, 7 July 2006 (UTC) Glindathegood[reply]

Why is the singer Sheila, referred to as Mr. Moss' flirt at the time? What does that even mean? It sounds lacking in neutrality and can't be documented. I removed that and just left her name as Sheila. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.252.1.145 (talk) 15:47, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be some confusion about whether Mr. Moss is divorced from his wife. Boy George said so in this interview. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_yqQEmRNZo&feature=channel_page at 3:31. I'm not sure where this can be confirmed.

Someone stated that Mr. Moss is not divorced. I'm not sure if their information is correct or not, as they spelled his first name incorrectly and gave no source for their information. Someone quoted an interview with Boy George saying they were but I'm not sure if George knows the truth either. Can this be verified through some type of court records. I'm not sure how to do that.

that first paragraph should include his being in adam and the ants...

...he plays on some of the 'dirk wears white sox' tracks, etc —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.171.177.100 (talk) 03:41, 2 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article states that Mr. Moss was separated from his wife Babs in 2010, but there are pictures of them together at Boy George's 50th birthday party in June of 2011 where they appear to be a couple http://shapersofthe80s.files.wordpress.com/2011/06/geobdayjonbabsmoss-getty.jpg Also this article states that he was expecting or has a fourth child. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/showbiz/celebrity-interviews/2010/05/15/it-was-great-experience-portraying-one-half-of-volatile-culture-club-story-says-mathew-horne-86908-22260167/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.88.63.151 (talk) 13:23, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also, there is no source for the statement that the Culture Club tour and new album may not be released until 2013. Boy George has said in several press interviews that would be done in 2012, since that is the 30th anniversary of the release of Culture Club's first single. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.252.23.98 (talk) 21:52, 20 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Moss in interviews has always denied having affairs with women during his relationship with Boy George. I wish people would stop inserting this is a fact when it is in dispute. This article is supposed to be objective in relation to subjects not perjorative. I wish Boy George fans would stop inserting these perjorative derogatory comments about Mr. Moss, while on the Boy George page complaining that the focus is too much on George's arrests and drug use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.252.5.214 (talk) 15:40, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Photo

I have misgivings for any artist sharing prominently the limelight with the artist concerned. I have the same feeling for Bob Weston appearing with Jon Moss on some coincidental "blues night jamming session" as in the infobox File:JonMoss2011.jpg. Does that make him appropriate for appearing in a Jon Moss infobox. Can't we have another photo where only Jon Moss appears? werldwayd (talk) 04:23, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life

The article's personal life section was a mess. Many of the sources are not reliable (such as, say, Wikipedia itself, or personal fan pages that aren't subject to editorial oversight), many others were primary sources such as the birth records cited for his children's ages, yet others such as the Queerty article didn't mention Jon Moss at all (I hope that wasn't an attempt to cite the comments!), and some were photos of gossip articles that didn't provide enough context to identify the original publication. Those are not the sources to be used in the biography of a living person, especially not when they involve minors. The divorce was entirely unsourced, and I couldn't find a source via Google News. Thus I have removed the entire section except for a single sentence that's actually backed up by a reliable third-party source. Huon (talk) 00:28, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
