Nicola Adams
Hello PatGallacher, I'd like to clarify my intention for changing the above article on Nicola Adams. She has mentioned in interviews numerous times that she is bisexual (and this was the reason for why she fought for a female partner on Strictly Come Dancing) so it was wrong for the article to mislabel her as gay. The cited reference that was already there does mention her bisexuality*, so that is why I didn't add my own cite.
- so this was in fact an incorrect cite for the misinformation I was trying to correct in the first place.
Arthur Mullard
Hello PatGallacher, I just wanted to clear up the nature of my (now-reverted) edit to Arthur Mullard's article- I in no way sought to indicate 'doubt' regarding the allegations (as there's no way I personally could have any real knowledge of it), but wondered if perhaps the emphasis on his daughter's claims was too great given the absence of any other sources than the Sunday Mirror, which, as the Sunday edition of the Daily Mirror, is presumably subject to the same consideration given to the latter at Wikipedia:Potentially unreliable sources. Since you've reverted the edit I don't intend to try again, but I do think it a shame that no other sources- even referring to the allegations second-hand- seem to exist which would lend credibility to them, and more to the point, to the very insistent manner in which details of said allegations are presented in three separate sections of the article. Just wanted to let you know where I was coming from when I made the edit, lest it be considered that simple doubt regarding the truthfulness of his daughter's claims had motivated me. Thanks!

The article Yonatan Steinberg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Pretty much a classic, if not stereotypical
WP:BLP1Einstance. No meaningful coverage of the subject before or after the one event involved, and basically only obituary coverage.

Hey, to the best of my knowledge, striking comments that are not extended-confirmed (in areas where you have to be) is pretty close to standard practice. I‘m happy to stop if it isn’t permitted, but I’m unfamiliar with the policy saying that it shouldn’t be done, and it feels like a good compromise between leaving as is (bad for the closer) and fully removing (less transparent).
I apologise if I missed something obvious :) FortunateSons (talk) 15:33, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- News to me that this is standard practice. Also, when you said EC, I assumed you mean Encyclopedic Comment. PatGallacher (talk) 15:51, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- The older move discussion on Talk:Flour massacre has a few examples of !votes by users who are not extended confirmed being struck. However, I do agree that it’s optional, so I don’t mind the removal, I was just confused. :) FortunateSons (talk) 16:05, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
