• curprev 15:0115:01, 8 January 2024‎ Sirfurboy talk contribs‎ 15,680 bytes −1,373‎ →‎Advocacy: Raised on Gill's personal talk page. I have reworked and pared back the paragraph. Gill was only involved in the appeal to the CCRC so made that clearer and better summary per the sources. None of the Geen detail is relevant to a page about Gill. We wikilink the Geen case so we don't need those extra details. The notable information here is Gill et al. wrote to the CCRC but the CCRC appeal was not successful. undo

6 January 2024

• curprev 23:3223:32, 6 January 2024‎ Sirfurboy talk contribs‎ 17,053 bytes −987‎ →‎Advocacy: I question the significance and relevance of these sentences. They are linked to a primary source, and whatever the intent of the visit described, they did not prevent Gill from returning to the UK, so the information reported here is either old and irrelevant or else it has not been accurately reported. It would also be good to find a secondary source to verify that other quote - but as it is a quote from Gill, a primary source is okay there. undo
