The contemporary artists are from the UK and Ireland, and one was born in South Africa. Inaccurate to describe them as "British Isles" poets, and unreferenced to boot. The NPG refers to these portraits in this way: "led to a one-man show of contemporary poets at the Gallery in 1990". I'll list the artists and their nationality instead. --HighKing (talk) 00:45, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Concur, no reference to say that the poets were selected as belonging to the British Isles, it just says contemporary. Inserting BI is original research without a reference and there is no excuse for edit warring. --Snowded TALK 16:57, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Interpretation. This is just an OR claim being used to justify POV. Please list those who are edit warring. LemonMonday Talk 17:00, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I am not interested in your speculation as to the motives of other editors. This is a content issue. There is nothing in the exhibition literature that says the poets were selected as "British Isles", it is thus clearly OR to insert that. Please respond to the content issue with a reference or an argument --Snowded TALK 17:11, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Agree no ref to say selection based on belonging to the British Isles. Mo ainm~Talk 17:27, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You're not bothered about references, at least you aren't at Neil Robertson (snooker player), so what gives? Don't answer that, I already know. You and the rest of them are just POV pushing anything to do with British Isles to try and remove the term wherever you can. LemonMonday Talk 18:31, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
That is another article. Please address the content issues raised here and stop speculating on motives --Snowded TALK 18:42, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It's indirectly relevant here. It highlights these POV antics. If HighKing hadn't tried to remove BI from this article do you think anyone would be that concerned about it? Not a bit of it. The use of BI here is completely minor and verging on the incidental. The mention OR in the context of its use here is banal. LemonMonday Talk 18:48, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
