No page on daughter "Hannah Ingram-Moore" currently exists
[edit]If you do a web search currently for "Hannah Ingram-Moore", this page is the first result (at least on Google).
Noting the various significant, national contraversies surronding Mrs. Ingram-Moore, from how the charity she founded has been run, a building errected for the business which now has to be demolished, it seems rather odd she does not have her own page on Wikipedia with this information presented in a clear and factual way. 185.184.140.15 (talk) 11:26, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

- I'd be a bit sceptical whether she's really notable to be honest. Mentions in connection with a single EvenT (WP:BLP1E), and WP:NOTINHERITED would appear at first glance to apply here. — Amakuru (talk) 00:00, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think she's notable enough for an article, she exists in the public domain purely for her association with corrupt activities relating to this charity, but content relating to her involvement should be mentioned on this article under the charity section since she is his daughter and it's his foundation.

- I agree that her notability is primarily inherited, at least as of now, I have added details of the CTF problems to that section. Boynamedsue (talk) 20:20, 14 October 2023 (UTC)

Consensus exists for details of the investigation into the Captain Tom Foundation
[edit]In the sections above, we have consensus for inclusion of details on the problems of the CTF, and several different users have added the information. However, these additions have been reverted twice by the same user:
Please refrain from reverting against consensus. Boynamedsue (talk) 09:29, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
Captain Tom and Barbados
[edit]The notion that the UK was on lockdown during the trip is an urban legend spread by social media and should not be added to the article.[1] Skywatcher68 (talk) 17:15, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
