Brighton bombing

I've removed the claim that Anderson was convicted in relation to this, because she wasn't. It's confusing because although all five people arrested in Glasgow were tried at the same time, only Magee was charged over the Brighton bombing but he was also charged in the conspiracy case involving the other four as well. See this Guardian article for more information. One Night In Hackney303 10:50, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Office

Is it an apprpriate use of the template to list her office as "Director of Unionist Engagement"? This is her job in Sinn Fein, not an official (ie government) post. beano 13:45, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Racism

A revert has been made without any new edit summary. What has been added is a extended quote that repeats much of the background earlier in the para. Wikipedia is not a soapbox.Traditional unionist (talk) 21:57, 20 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

LEditors cannot ignore discussion. The article is currently a soapbox for Anderson. It repeats the same piece of information twice in the same para.Traditional unionist (talk) 18:30, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

TU you added "Employment monitoring by the Equality Commission records solely religion, and not political affiliation." I have attempted to now put it into context, though as a footnote it would work equally as well. --Domer48 (talk) 19:05, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article still reads like a propaganda sheet. The extensive quote is unnecessary.Traditional unionist (talk) 11:06, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The editor who first introduced this section intended it to be negative propaganda, with the addition of text not contained in the sources. I simply placed the context of the remarks in their true light and based on the sources provided. It was not me for example who titled this tread "Racism," which was also the context that was implyed on the article itself. --Domer48 (talk) 12:12, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What that user intended is irrelevent. She said it, and it was reported. What Wikipedia should not be doing, is reproducing extended quotes. What you should not be doing is turning on POV into another.Traditional unionist (talk) 12:14, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
