There is nothing dubious about the assertion that Frank Maloney addressed the Swinton Circle in March 2010, as confirmation appears on the Swinton Circle website. Furthermore, as I, Alan Harvey, am currently Chairman of the Swinton Circle it stands to reason that I would be involved in the organising of this meeting!

I have added dubious template to the claim that Maloney addressed the Swinton Circle in 2010 as while it is not disputed he addressed a meeting organised by Alan Harvey the claim that it was the Swinton Circle is currently disupted [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Utinomen (talkcontribs) 20:39, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He/she?

When referring to historical actions/comments when she was a man surely she should be referred to as he? Very confusing. VenomousConcept (talk) 17:13, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is covered at MOS:IDENTITY. --j⚛e deckertalk 17:22, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
" unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise.", evidently the subject did always refer to himself as a male during his notable time in boxing, but there is no information on how Maloney would like to be referred to in retrospect. Not that there is anything I feel the need to add to the article, I honestly wouldn't know how to refer to Maloney. --The Old Boy In Town (talk) 18:06, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Allegations of racism and homophobia

Because of recent events I referred to this article. I followed the links in this section, and some of them are dead, while others link to pages that don't have any connection to Frank Maloney. What there is ingores his comments in the Independent in 2010: [[2]], where he repudiates the claims he is racist, and while he continues to express a level of homophobia, he does state quite clearly that he was wrong about what he is cited as saying in here. A significant part of the section is making claims about UKIP, and from that seeking to add weight that he is racist. This is WP:SYNTH. I am not keen to edit this article myself, but would request that those involved in editing page give a more balanced reflection, using reliable sources, and remove what cannot verified from links which do not seem to be real. - MishMich - Talk - 12:48, 11 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
