She was also a regular columnist on the east London local paper The Docklands for some years, up to 2009 I think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.30.161.92 ( talk) 10:45, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
Are you sure she's muslim now? 69.155.132.24 ( talk) 07:54, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Under References, links 4 and 5 say nothing about the subject. Link 6 appears to be a dead link, unless someone can correct me. Isabelle 67 ( talk) 18:10, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
Why is any reference to the offensive twitter comments this woman made on 1st July 2011 in response to the deaths of 3 gap year students instantly removed? They are clear as day on her twitter account. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.178.42.8 ( talk) 11:44, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
Why does this page even exist, seems to me anyone can have a wiki page these days. shameful! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rapidlaser ( talk • contribs) 21:59, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
I have removed the 'Quotes' section of this article, as it doesn't really belong here: lists of personal quotes belong on Wikiquote, not Wikipedia. They're only worth mentioning here if they're particularly significant. In this case, the only quote of hers that's received comment from third parties is the 'gap year' one; but as that's already mentioned above in the article, I removed it as well.

I think it would make sense to create a new section that covers the twitter incident as I don't believe it actually falls as part of her career. Do you not think it is appropriate to add a new section specifically for it? Livebythe ( talk) 00:58, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi. I don't want to start a big fight but why, if the bit about "her Dad's death made a big impression" is not worth including, is the bit about "she is jolly clever but didn't think Mensa much cop" worth having in? They seem much of a muchness to me - they are both vague backgroundy stuff, could both claim some relevance to her writing or her life an ting, both look a bit like we haven't got quite enough for the article, etc. As I say I am not about to start World War III over the elfin literary superstar but I just wondered where we are going with this, or could be or should be.

Creating this in response to June 2023 edits, particularly the use of the word "mocks". This seems like a bad-faith to me, but am hoping that more experienced admins will weigh in. BritBengalis ( talk) 08:00, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I'm afraid I'm in danger of getting into an edit war with @90.242.60.107. Their edit repeats claims by a right-wing newspaper here as fact. I've appealed to them to discuss it with me in this Talk page or theirs but they have continue to revert my edits without engaging in the discussion. I've raised a Talk topic above but haven't had any input from other users yet. Any advice on next steps would be appreciated. -- BritBengalis ( talk) 11:17, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
