Your edit to article on J. Sumption
Hello,
I am sure your cutting of this article's explanation of how the Supreme Court replaced the Appellate Committee was well-intended -- you noted that this was not relevant as JS was not joining the Appellate Committee but the Supreme Court. However, if you continue in the article, you will see that later on there is a comparative discussion of the tiny handful of lawyers who went directly from the Bar to the Appellate Committee (as JS has to the committee's successor). For lay readers (like Yours truly), the relevance of a discussion of direct elevation to the Appellate Committee will not be obvious unless they are told that the Supreme Court is its successor.
Best wishes with your future edits. Nandt1 (talk) 22:35, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

No sense
Do you know what a Single Member Electorate is? Do you know what FPP is? Ever heard of Adolf Hitler? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.61.61.161 (talk) 11:52, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- Do you know what "democratic" means? It doesn't mean liberal and fuzzy. A person elected by first past the post in a single member constituency is democratically elected because he or she was elected by the people. I presume you support proportional representation. Supporters of PR argue it is more democratic, but even if that is so, it doesn't mean FPTP isn't democratic. Your edit were inappropriate and poorly informed, so I reverted them. -Rrius (talk) 22:05, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
