I did have one eye on improving this to good article status at some point this year, but a moving target is hard to hit and she keeps getting the news so the article isn't really stable enough. What do you think? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:13, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
Reuters attributed the wording - which appears to be from Clause IV - but I am unsure that "greater" is supported either, if one reads the cites accurately. Cheers. Collect ( talk) 18:22, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
[1] seems on its face to be a Reuters dispatch by Andrew Osborn dated August 9, 2015. What part of that attribution is "false"? Cheers. Collect ( talk) 19:10, 9 August 2015 (UTC) .
Every day I have checked now there is a new Page 3 girl. It seems odd to leave something in the article so oviously wrong and so easily checked. I don't understand, is this something that is only in the online addition? Capitalismojo ( talk) 03:36, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
You're right, thank you, neutrality is preferable. 212.121.210.45 ( talk) 17:32, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
Hi. Looking at the edit history, it was established a self published blog written by a subject was OK - so surely a post from a verified Twitter account is too? I have also placed info regarding her father, which also in effect confirms her surname.

Hello, Philip Cross. Marjorie Reeves, an article you either created or significantly contributed to, has been nominated to appear on Wikipedia's Main Page as part of Did you know . You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. APersonBot ( talk!) 00:21, 4 October 2015 (UTC) |
I see you reverted my edit there based on your view that the journalist was biased. Can you give me some evidence that would prove he is "a notorious Milosevic sympathizer"? VS6507 ( talk) 16:33, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Catherine Masters is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Catherine Masters (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. EEng ( talk) 04:45, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
Can you explain this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.248.83 ( talk) 14:12, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
This quote appears on her page "Creasy is coming under the threat of deselection from activists in her Walthamstow constituency, such as members of the Jeremy Corbyn-supporting Momentum group, who would prefer a candidate at the next general election with opinions closer to those of the Labour leader. A possibility that the seat might be redrawn after boundary changes means potential candidates are jockeying for position in the constituency party.[28]"
The article referenced http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/staggers/2015/12/stella-creasy-targeted-deselection mentions Monentum's denial. In the interests of balance this denial should be mentioned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.24.105.139 ( talk) 15:44, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
The MOS says that references for information in brackets are included inside the brackets and not outside. This is an exception to the usual rule. Anglicanus ( talk) 00:23, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
Why are you censoring the talk page over on the Independent:
'The Independent has taken to disabling commenting for a certain subset of registered users. If you log in, all the comments and the commenting box totally disappears. For an alleged independent online newspaper, this is disingenuous and dishonest at its worst. Would anyone here care to contacts the editors and ask for an explanation.'

A "clash"? Really? Have you been reading tabloids or something? Seriously, I would appreciate the withdrawal of your ad hominem comments regarding my supposedly disliking a person I have never heard of before today. I fear it will not look good for others reviewing your case. I would hate to see you getting a topic ban unnecessarily. Please at least think about it. -- John ( talk) 20:51, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for your edits on Militant in Liverpool which means that I can resume my obsession with century old by-elections. JASpencer ( talk) 14:02, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello Philip Cross, On 11 October 2015, you made a change to the article on the Protection of Children Act 1978. It looks as though it may be a mistake: an apparently random change to a number, some content deleted, and a reference added. The intention isn't altogether clear from the edit summary. Could you check and rectify it, please? Frans Fowler ( talk) 02:45, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi, if this talk is in the wrong place please forgive as it seems difficult to work out how to contribute to another editor for a first time. In relation to the above I wondered why you deleted my edit? As the sub heading was titled mimicry and if you listen to the album, which I have, it is clearly Peter Lorre and about the Maltese falcon, it is also in the article about the album. Thanks Morayman ( talk) 09:52, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi. I have mentioned you at AN/I regarding your involvement in the Stephen Sizer article.

I disagree that the Beatles reference has no notability; there are probably millions of Beatles fans who know Hawtrey's name only from "Two of Us". I'm not suggesting (as some do!) that every little thing any Beatle ever said is significant, but I think this is worth noting. (Heck, they even have T-shirts! http://www.oldskoolhooligans.com/images/hawtrey.jpg) DetroitWheels74 ( talk) 13:06, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
Hi Philip Cross. I'm an editor of the Italian Wikipedia. I'm trying to participate to an IEG with the project "Women are everywhere". You will find the draft at this link https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Women_are_everywhere It would be great if you could have a look at it. I need any kind of suggestion or advice to improve it. Support or endorsement would be fantastic. Many thanks,-- Kenzia ( talk) 19:20, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Please don't misrepresent the source of material in articles. My source was the paper version of The Times. I don't know that the web version is identical though I accept it probably is. Also, they don't say born. WP:SAYWHEREYOUGOTIT "Don't cite a source unless you've seen it for yourself." Philafrenzy ( talk) 10:00, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
