disambiguation[edit]

I've set up a John Clarke (disambiguation) page because there are at least seven I've found so far. I'd like to simplify references to complete names when we have them. Would there be objection to my relocating this page to "John Morrison Clarke" as that's how he's listed on other pages in Wikipedia (e.g. Fred Dagg)? Please respond to my talk page.

To Neil Copeland[edit]

Thanks very much for your message on my talk page about John Clarke (satirist). My proposal was in August 2004 and I never did anything about it as an Australian user, I believe User:Ambi, had written to me on this subject. I had forgotten this proposal was even still out there. Nevertheless, thanks for your kind words. PedanticallySpeaking 18:33, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This needs sources, it's not good enough just to give external links. Phrases like "an early high point" suggest POV without citations.--Grahamec 01:02, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bushwalker and bird photographer[edit]

According to Robyn Williams or the ABC, John Clarke was an avid bushwalker and bird photographer. They give a photo of a parrot supposedly taken from his Flickr account: [1]. The photo is here [2], but credited to someone else. Does anyone have a link to John Clarke's Flickr account? Horatio (talk) 22:58, 10 April 2017 (UTC) It's possible that Hone Morihana is an alias for John Clarke, but this photo link is the only evidence for it.
