What is it? It says 1925, i can't find a good reference about it. Blakut ( talk) 15:42, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
This appears to be the only online citation for the existence of a "Clockwork Oranges" gang. The article currently makes it look as though that statement is sourced to the book "Given in Evidence" by J. Capstick -- but, in fact, the sentence about the "Clockwork Oranges" gang was appended between that footnote and the preceding sentence. The only way I can see that sort of edit being legitimate would be if the user who added that sentence ( User:Pointe Drive) had read the Capstick book, and was merely contributing an additional fact from that book. (The best way to be sure would be to peruse a copy of the book.) Perhaps relevantly, some of the questions on User:Pointe Drive's Talk page suggest that some of his or her other edits have also been problematic and/or puzzling. 38.127.157.106 ( talk) 18:11, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

All of these numerous very significant claims come from a book that's unclear on details about, a Brian McDonald book, and an article about a previous Brian McDonald book on the subject. Have any other primary sources or other academics looked into this, since it all seems to rest on one person's ( possibly diligently sources and annotated ) work? 138.255.254.22 ( talk) 04:11, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
