Oh, what is it that's been prohibited here? Something he's said, perhaps? Martinevans123 (talk) 15:58, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am confused, we mentioned it, so what is the real issue here? Slatersteven (talk) 13:47, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
"How wikipedia continues to silence free speech and truth"... erm, no. Free speech means it doesn't have to be reported on, and wikipedia policy is that when reported on it should be reported on accurately. Thus if it were to be more extensively covered, the facts seem in disagreement with your choice of words. Given we have court evidence the claims are defamatory, with the media referenced here being in contempt of court, there is no major need to draw attention to it bar simple acknowledgement. If Stephen had wanted to change the record on that, he had every opportunity to follow the legal process - for reasons only known to him, he decided not to do so. Thus the facts state the "documentary" is not truth, and thus is not suitable to really be covered. Garfie489 (talk) 07:30, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Far right just because one journalist said he is

[edit]

Wikipedia continues to use far right whenever a handful of journalist are quoted in using the term. This is wrong and not charitable in the slightest. 195.252.198.209 (talk) 12:26, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The content is sourced, and it is a description very widely used - we don't need to cite every such instance it has been applied. Wikipedia doesn't base content on what random contributors say is 'wrong', and we aren't here to give preferential treatment to convicted criminals.

To add to this, if we did cite every time the description was used in a reliably reported way - the page would become mostly references and entirely unusable. Garfie489 (talk) 21:02, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There's literally a metric fucktonne of reliable sources which call them far-right. TarnishedPathtalk 13:17, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So is it one, or a handful? Slatersteven (talk) 14:25, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia just quotes what has been reliably reported. It's not a Tommy Robinson charity. Martinevans123 (talk) 15:32, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
