Talk:Look Mum No Computer

capitalization

Shouldn't the name be stylized as LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER? Arcade Wise (they/them) (talk) 15:53, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Also his name is not Sam Bartle - its Sam Battle

Sam does a really good job explaining how to build DIY electronic music-oriented thingamagiggy. Also a talented musician. 31.129.208.16 (talk) 20:01, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

name and age

Much like LMNC, Sam Battle is also a stage name. His real surname is Bartle. as per UK Companies House — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-13697-47 (talk) 11:12, 3 March 2026 (UTC)

Has he ever publicly acknowledged this? Wikipedia can't use Companies House research as a source per WP:BLPPRIMARY. --Belbury (talk) 11:58, 3 March 2026 (UTC)

As per above, the GOV information is correct but we're not allowed to use it. So looks like it's better to just have nothing there rather than a wrong birth date Windowshoppernan (talk) 19:57, 5 March 2026 (UTC)—  Blocked sockpuppet of ZestyLemonz, see investigation. --Belbury (talk) 09:19, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/tv/eurovision-song-contest-2026-uk-33515469 says he's 37 this month, which matches the gov.uk source, so I've cited that for a broader {{birth based on age as of date}} template. Belbury (talk) 20:06, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

German

Can someone do a german page for this? We alrady have a german page for "Eins, Zwei, Drei" attempting to link there.

Classic Minis, Austin 7s and Look Mum No Engine

This article could do with a section about his car stuff (I'm not writing it now, just a suggestion). Anamyd (talk) 00:39, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

Requested typo fix

"on organ" should read "an organ". ~2026-29659-36 (talk) 10:18, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

 Done. MIDI (talk) 10:33, 18 May 2026 (UTC)

Typo in caption for image

Fixed the spelling error in the caption which originally read "Battle" which I changed to "Bartle". However, this was then changed back to "Battle" and I am unsure why considering this is an error, unless I am being silly and missing something blatantly obvious.

I think that he should be referred to as Bartle all the way through the article, as both Battle and Look Mum No Computer are stage names, and the latter is the article name per WP:COMMON NAME. The article also needs some shuffling and copyediting per WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 21:08, 19 May 2026 (UTC)

There is a single independent source that names him as Bartle, with all of the rest using Battle. It might be a stage name but it is clearly the one he prefers to have published. Primefac (talk) 23:39, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
