According to David Davies’ office (and confirmed by him), David was born 27 June 1970, not July.

Which parliament?
um, in which parliament does Mr. Davies serve? Gentgeen 12:11, 19 May 2004 (UTC)
Both the Welsh Assembly and Westminster.
British or Welsh?
Why is David Davies referred to as a "Welsh Politician" but his fellow Conservative MP David Davis as a "British Politician". To be consistent, they should either both be referred to as British, or David Davis referred to as English. Ausseagull (talk) 07:44, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
Month of birth
According to David Davies’ office (and confirmed by him), David was born 27 June 1970, not July. We’ve used this information on his profile on YourNextMP. I believe the 1998 BBC source is incorrect. I made this edit, but it was reverted. How can this be resolved? 87.113.222.18 (talk) 19:23, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
C-SPAN got it wrong
Here's a interesting tidbit. During Charles Clarke's Commons speech about the 7 July 2005 London bombings, C-SPAN's titles identified David Davis (the Shadow Home Secretary) as David Davies, (the AM and MP for Monmouth). Take it as you will. - Hoshie.Crat 7 July 2005 12:05 (UTC)
Content from TheyWorkForYou.com
I've deleted the "voting record" section from this article as it was just content copied and pasted from the external website TheyWorkForYou.com. Content from this and other websites is useful and relevant to wikipedia articles, but copying and pasting isn't necessarily the best way to include it. The voting record section from TheyWorkForYou is subjective - it gives scores calculated using a method TheyWorkForYou have devised, based on issues that TheyWorkForYou has decided are important. Copying and pasting it here leaves out important qualifications and further information (such as links to the votes and speeches in question, and comparisons against other MPs). The "numerology" information from TheyWorkForYou is particularly meaningless without further information, and yet that was included here without further information. The other advantage to people looking up information on the website itself, rather than here, is that they can be sure it's up to date. Alboran (talk) 22:50, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
citation accuracy
The article claims the NBPA "mistakenly" invited him to speak. However, the linked BBC source says: Some officers at the conference had expected Mr Davies's namesake, the former shadow home secretary David Davis, to be speaking. But the NBPA spokesman said the Monmouth MP had been asked because of his role on the commons home affairs committee. This indicates that they did mean to invite him. Did the original author cite the wrong source or get the source wrong? 94.173.122.171 (talk) 00:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
"Barbaric views on women"?
To what does this refer? This should be clearer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.236.151.82 (talk) 18:50, 30 April 2011 (UTC) In addition, it seems strange to me why this is included in the same sentance as his sceptisicm to CACG. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.123.208.30 (talk) 22:05, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
Informative or ad Hominem Attack
This article does not read like an informative unbiased piece. It sounds more like a partisan attack add. Only listing his "wacko" statements does not give anyone a good overall view of his accomplishments or views. Most of this article is obviously intended only to make him look like an extreamist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.123.208.30 (talk) 22:12, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
