Hi SwayShunt. Again, welcome to Wikipedia - I see you recently started editing here. I have just reverted a change you made to the Susan Murray article. Firstly, LinkedIn is not a particularly reliable source (see WP:LINKEDIN); secondly, the reference was to a different person with a similar name, not Susan Murray.

Hello again, SwayShunt. I have just reverted another edit you made. The opening sections of many Wikipedia articles are written as 'leads' - see the Manual of Style (MOS:LEAD). While you felt it repeated content given elsewhere in the article, it was actually fulfilling one purpose of the lead: to "summarize the body of the article". Happy editing!

I note that you have just reverted my change saying "Cut down lead section, so similiar to other MPs. All information is already in the rest of the article". Numerous UK MP articles - Boris Johnson, Keir Starmer, Rachel Reeves, to name but three - begin with significant summarising lead sections. You are going against consensus in such edits to biographies of living people (see MOS:BIO). Paul W (talk) 14:28, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
