List of Achievements[edit]

Can't verify that "Government Task Force" comment. Any takers? Dugo 20:00, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. --88.115.127.151 13:25, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Structure[edit]

Added some structure to page. He also played on an Eastwind album in the 90'ties if I recall correctly, but guess that is not a major thing to mention. Should Ronan Hardimans copycatting of Whelan's Riverdance be mentioned or would that be evil?

Name[edit]

Should his full name be listed somewhere? According to repetoire.BMI.com, his name is William Michael Joseph Whelan. (see entry for Timedance, for example). 86.45.25.201 (talk) 17:20, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
