"As a young boy he had an accident with a slingshot from which resulted in him needing a glass eye." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.244.199.238 ( talk) 13:29, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
I removed this section for review and rewrite as it mentioned disputes, but lacked information as to their subject.
The wording has been changed to:
"The GSD which he now leads, is robustly against any transfer of sovereignty to Spain, but remains in favour of safe dialogue"
Instead of "uncompromised dialogue". The wording in the reference beside the sentence is "Reasonable dialogue".
Wouldn't if be better to use "Reasonable dialogue" than "safe dialogue"?

I'm wondering about sources that were and are being used for this article. Vox, Panorama, and Gibnet.
I don't want to offend anyone by asking this, but is there any possibility that these are "biased" sources? Representing particular interests?
Understand, I'm not saying they are; I'm just asking the question.

The reference now given after the words "much to the annoyance of Peter Hain" is about pension arrangements, not about bi-lateral talks.
Thus it is not a good reference IMO.
I understand that a connection I am missing might be obvious to someone more versed in Gibraltar-UK-Spain relationships.
However, since this is meant to be a general encyclopedia, references that require this much reading between the lines are not helpful. Are there some sources that are more directly relevant? Wanderer57 ( talk) 01:11, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
'Gibraltarian Roman Catholics' is indeed a subcategory of 'Gibraltarian people'. As I understand it, in the Wikipedia category system, a person who is in both a category and a subcategory is supposed to be tagged by the subcategory. Because the subcategory is more defining, it conveys more information. Wanderer57 ( talk) 19:06, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm removing the following:
In the 1960s, Triay was one of the palomos or "doves", who aroused controversy by advocating an agreement with Spain.
Not only is it wholly immaterial, but may well breach BLP: "When in doubt, biographies should be pared back to a version that is completely sourced, neutral, and on-topic". Biographies of living persons must also be "written conservatively, with regard for the subject's privacy".
Also note that "the burden of proof is on those who wish to retain, restore, or undelete disputed material".
This article was recently subject to an attempted lawsuit, so it is especially important that the article remains policy-compliant. - RedCoat10 • talk 11:31, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
