Addition by 89.168.46.4 on 23 nov 06 (Hitler/Saddam)

I've deleted this. In my opinion it's an example of recentism and it's not encyclopedic enough to warrant a whole paragraph in this short article. El Ingles 22:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

I disagree on the basis that the woman is clearly a cunt.--80.43.18.169 23:57, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

I agree, I think she's a cunt too. What are you going to do about that? Have a fight? Come on then fuckwits, come on, Im waiting.

It's wiki, not a popularity show. RedHillian 03:51, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

RedHillier, Isn't there a wikipedia policy on personal attacks? Or doesn't that apply to a talk page. Elizabeth First (talk) 18:17, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

1) It's RedHillian. 2)There's WP:BLP, which is relates to content (not specifically talk pages), and WP:CIVIL which relates to being civil to each other. What User:80.43.18.169 put in back in 2006 wasn't civil or appropriate, but it didn't get a hearing on the main page for that reason. The comments are kept as they are on talk pages as a record of what was said, and by whom. --RedHillian (talk) 21:57, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

The abusive language does not in itself signify that there is a dispute as to the accuracy of the Wikipedia entry, only that there are some people who disagree with the views of Esther Rantzen. Does Wikipedia encourage the use of such language? If so, why? Marjorie morningstar (talk) 10:48, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Content / NPOV

A large part of the article seems to be saying that Rancid/Child Line is wonderful and beyond all criticism. Seeing that the chief source is the woman's autobiography, I think that what we have here is hagiography of the worst kind. 80.1.88.39 (talk) 10:20, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

If you can find some content that's more neutral, and verifiable and complies with the policy on biographies of living people, then be bold and add it in - I won't be objecting if it's all legitimate. --RedHillian (talk) 13:14, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
Neither will I, as another editor of thispage. --El Ingles (talk) 19:17, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
