Strictly rip off article edit
I have removed this information as I think it has been presented in a biased way- the article cited indicates there was some reason behind what happened and this is not mentioned. In addition, it doesn't seem to have gone anywhere- the article mentioned Bury Trading Standards were investigated, so what happened here? I suspect nothing happened, which suggests it isn't really noteworthy enough to be included in an article detailing the main events of Simone's career.
In addition, the User Talk page of one of the people contributing appears to me to be set up by the owner of the website(User:Ros1066), which suggests to me the contribution is an attempt to raise its profile (WP:CONFLICT?) rather than to 'report an unbiased account of historical events'.Gingernut1015 (talk) 20:06, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- Agree - I've removed the latest version. It's possible that a wider-based section, referring to some of the problems that Vincent & Flavia's professional partnership suffered because of their personal problems, and using this as an example, might be appropriate, but even then it'd be borderline I think. And as it stands, it's completely inappropriate. David James Bailey (talk) 11:06, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Americanisms edit
This article had some US-Americanisms in it so I've removed them and replaced them with UK norms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.30.203.1 (talk) 16:31, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
