Can you change "anti-transgender activist" to "women's rights activist"?
No. Wikipedia is primarily based on reliable secondary sources, and these describe Graham Linehan as an anti-transgender activist. Per discussions on the talk page, there is consensus among editors to use this wording. Please see the talk page archives to review these discussions.
The mention of The Day Today states that he was credited in 8 episodes - this cannot be possible, as there were only 6. Can this be changed or removed as appropriate? 2A00:23C4:E31:6801:A9C3:4633:B81D:CF65 (talk) 23:31, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I have checked and he's credited in episodes 1 & 3, but not the other 4, two of which have no "additional material". He's credited as part of his writing partnership with Matthews. Rankersbo (talk) 17:23, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the edit - having just checked, there's a similar issue with Brass Eye, as there were only 7 episodes of that, so he couldn't be credited in 8 of them. 2A00:23C4:E31:6801:A9C3:4633:B81D:CF65 (talk) 22:43, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Credited on screen for all 6 of the series (Matthews and Baynham only other cowriters on every ep). Not credited on the 2001 special. Rankersbo (talk) 13:59, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
