I do not feel that redirecting this page to the Cathedrals was a good move. Kirk Talley is a very notable artist on his own merits. Apart from his scandal, he is a Dove award winner and Grammy nominee. That in itself makes him notable under WP guidelines. So, please do not direct this page to the Cathedrals!

I fail to understand your reasoning for reverting my Kirk Talley edits. Talley doesn't deny the homosexual extortion attempt -- he's gone on television to admit it.
If I'd revealed 'Kirk Talley is a CIA agent', that information, if true, would be harmful to him. Because it's a secret. The extortion case is public record. Beyond that, it can be found in numerous places on the internet, substantiated, as is the wiki article, by reputable press.
If Talley thought the information was as harmful as you believe, he wouldn't comment on it. My edit is not original research, nor does its inclusion change the way Talley is viewed in public. This is an encyclopedia. For someone who claims to be a historian, you should know that sins of omission are, at best, misleading, if not fraudulent.
The edits are returning, and a copy of this is going on the talk page.
The information is sourced in three places, the tone is neutral, and Talley has not kept it a secret. Not including it here is dishonest.-- 68.36.136.73 ( talk) 21:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

The Grammy's show no record of any award nominations for "He Is Here". https://www.grammy.com/grammys/awards/34th-annual-grammy-awards-1991 is the category in 1991. The supplied source also incorrectly states that the song won the Dove Award that year for best song, but the 1992 award went to " Place in This World" recorded by Michael W. Smith the before it went to "Another Time, Another Place" performed by Sandi Patti. There is no record of this song being nominated in this category, but it did win in 1991 for SOUTHERN GOSPEL RECORDED SONG OF THE YEAR https://doveawards.com/awards/past-winners/ (you have to search and go to the second page to see it.

The section that described exactly what happened has been edited to make Kirk Talley seem an innocent victim. Kirk Talley is not innocent nor repentant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.118.161.59 ( talk) 08:23, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
