Journalist doubt

[edit]

The article states "Following the court case, a number of journalists have cast doubt on the original verdict". It is not clear why we would call out a specific example only of that happening. Suggest removing that callout. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:04, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The source that you question is not being used to cite that line. It is being used to cite that DM challenged it in 2004. There is nothing wrong with it being used in this context. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 14:06, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Not my point. What I am saying is, we already say that journalists cast doubt on the verdict - why is it then necessary to specifically state that DM challenged it in 2004. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:08, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Because they were one of the first to do so, especially given that nearly every media outlet at the time was saying "guilty, clearly plotted and cheated". The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 14:10, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have a reliable source to support that bit of interpretation? If no, it's OR. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:12, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Arms or cash

[edit]

This is a discussion as to if the infobox should display the Royal Arms used by the court or foreign currency. Template:Infobox_court_case Clearly states the image section is for a picture of the court or the court's coat of arms. Template:Infobox court case/images also indicates the majority of English courts use the royal arms. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 13:50, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is no clarity as to what currency from such a distance and with such a blend shown and I have already stated British currency is subject to restrictions and indeed any form of icon helps navigating within the 98-strong category Category:English criminal case law. A constructive compromise might be to approach this from a new direction rather than sailing straight on ahead in an overly rigid manner. Just choose a navigation icon within which field of law, theft, to which this relates. Cheque fraud symbol if you will.- Adam37 Talk 15:38, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Only if you are in the UK but you have to remember that Wikipedia is based in the US so that doesn't apply on here. I'm happy to go with any appropriate image as long as it is related to this (in other terms, no foreign currency). The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 15:40, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Whilst in full fettle, you could assist me by looking through in logged out mode any images conceivably objectionable for any cases. One is dealing with US lawyers as you say at times who will be ever so hot on WP:COPYVIO more so than the Commons which is like the House of Commons, much less orderly on that, and some fananticals may have penned odd first lines which are not encyclopedic in tone, skimming the judgement, or copying a tabloid exposé.- Adam37 Talk 16:24, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
