Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Centre for Science and Policy, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chief Scientific Adviser. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Daily Mail is unreliable.

edit

Hello, @LauristonGdns! I hope you're having a wonderful day.

A heads-up, the Daily Mail is considered an unreliable source by the community, as shown in WP:DAILYMAIL specifically.

Because of that, I reverted one of your recent edits, but now as you know why I did it, please don't take it personally.

Clarification

edit

Edit: This is regarding the Low Traffic Neighbourhood Page Hi @LauristonGdns, I noticed you removed my edit regarding a by-election saying it was to the section was to do with major focus on Ltns which is understandable. However the article I used as a source stated that there was suggestion that the loss was due to the LTN scheme. Also please see this secondary source https://www.onlondon.co.uk/lewis-baston-tower-hamlets-politics-are-different-but-labours-weavers-ward-by-election-loss-will-worry-the-party-across-london/amp/


I do not want or intend to edit in a pro/anti LTN way so just wanted clarification on this specific point as I thought it was relevant to that article. Encyloedit (talk) 23:29, 15 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
