Criticism

edit

A link highlighting one of his inflammatory Guardian articles was provided. It also details a small portion of comment from the section of Northern Irish society he habitually insults. The Guardian even thought it necessary to moderate their own reporters comments on his own blog. This is all simple unequivocal fact.

You're talking about the removal of this information? An online forum is far from meeting Wikipedia's standards as a reliable source. tedder (talk) 15:18, 12 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Possible Partial Protection for Glendenning?

edit

Glendenning is something of a love/hate figure on the Football Weekly podcast. Likewise, he is the most likely to respond to comments, and has been to respond to trolls and a do some troll-baiting himself. Thus, his page is vandalized surprisingly frequently. I would suggest some sort of protection of this page (such as it being partially protected) in order to discourage vandalism.Eriol11 (talk) 04:15, 10 January 2011 (UTC)eriol11Reply

I don't see why a journalist, however provocative he may be regarded as being, deserves any better "protection" than that offered to any other public figure? If no evidence is provided of accustions, obviously they can be removed; otherwise if "controversy" is his stock in trade then that should be reflected in his entry.--Oneill1921 (talk) 16:05, 8 September 2011 (UTC)Oneill1921Reply

It looks like partial protection would be appropriate here. If there's are accusations or 'controversies' then people can still add them - partial protection would mean they would have to be a named editor to do that, which reels in some of the trolling and vandalism, and makes it more likely that changes would be appropriate. The IP address of the person who made about 60%+ of the article about a passing comment on a podcast suggests they've made one other contribution to wiki from that address - to change hyperlinks to the words 'Master' and 'Baiter'...Marty jar (talk) 19:23, 21 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Blowing his own trumpet

How can he hear the sound of his voice if he's blowing a trumpet? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.15.70.11 (talk) 13:32, 10 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
