New Statesman[edit]
You were correct to delete the questionable material at New Statesman, but you ought to have used the Edit summary at the bottom of the edit box to say why you had done so. I've given at Talk:New Statesman some reasons why you might have done so. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 17:34, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

Please do not enter unreliable citations. A citation which links to a twitter copy page and begins with the word 'apparently' is not suitable. Please learn to use this site properly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yipeeiohyh (talk • contribs) 16:04, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
