George Harrison

Shouldn't he be mentioned in this? I mean if Douglas Adams is so should he.

Douglas Adams

I noticed the removal of his name from the template, and not being familiar with any contributions, went looking. I found a brief mention in our article at Monty Python's Flying Circus#The landing of The Flying Circus, and more complete explanation at http://montypython.wikia.com/wiki/Douglas_Adams

I'm not sure if that warrants his inclusions, so will just leave these notes here for consideration. -- Quiddity (talk) 17:58, 21 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

IIRC, he was one of their writers. - Denimadept (talk) 19:59, 21 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm more concerned about the inclusion of Neil Innes, who wasn't ever considered a "full member" until quite recently. If he merits inclusion in the template, certainly Connie Booth and Charles McKeown also merit inclusion. And Douglas Adams would warrant the same consideration. 12.233.146.130 (talk) 21:08, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Related Articles

How do we establish how related an article is to Monty Python? Bert Fegg's book is rather obscure, even though it was written by Michael Palin and Terry Jones. Should related articles be limited only to sketch shows the group has done? 2.97.166.22 (talk) 22:20, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Actually, as the article on the Berg Fegg book clearly indicates that it was a Monty Python release (I have a copy of the book and can verify it's labelled "A Monty Python Educational Product") it belongs in the book section, so I will move it there now. 68.146.72.113 (talk) 16:03, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
