I have removed most of the text on this as it is unsourced and negative. Feel free to readd anything that can be properly sourced. Stifle (talk) 18:03, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
For a BLP article on a subject with political overtones, this one is curious, with many listed sources but almost entirely unsourced text. Basically it needs a rewrite; the text isn't defensible as it stands. Indeed deleting nearly all of it would not be unjustified, but it needs better.

The only Sixsmith born, between March 1953 and December 1955, recorded in FreeBMD, is "Martin N; Mother = Martin; Bolton; 10b648a": [1]. So both the existing date and place of birth seem to be wrong. Even BFI have him born in 1954? Martinevans123 (talk) 16:20, 22 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
FreeBMD has a George M Sixsmith (mother = Sutton) registered in the December quarter of 1954 in Warrington. Goodreads gives his full name as George Martin Sixsmith, so this is undoubtedly his birth registration. Nick Cooper (talk) 11:16, 21 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
