Clarify the shooting

Newton took a shot at Scott, this is conceded by all.

Whose idea was it, Newton’s or Thorpe’s?

The article does not make this clear, but perhaps it is not clear anyway. A summary of the different stories, and when they were offered, would improve the article. 2A00:23C7:E284:CF00:6CB7:7F91:945F:DC9C (talk) 10:30, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Private Life

Almost every wikipage has a section on private life, but not this one. Why not? Rustygecko (talk) 10:38, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Because the article provides detailed coverage of a private life that became all too public.--Jburlinson (talk) 15:49, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
