For quite some time the page has included the claim regarding K8 kiosks:
The text code includes the note:
"This is ambiguous. Does it mean that there are only 12 K8 phone boxes left in working circulation, or 12 K8 Mk2 phone boxes? According to http://www.the-telephone-box.co.uk/kiosks/k8/ - there are currently 54 out of 11,000 left in circulation."
The claim of 12 clearly cannot apply to K8s as a whole. This BBC page seems to have cribbed the number from here, but states that there are four in Swindon alone. A quarter of the total in one small city? Unlikely.
Then again, even the 54 claimed at the above linked page is suspect. Does it mean just BT boxes, because there are a fair amount preserved in Hull, as well as at least eight as non-public telephones at London Underground stations? This page lists 51 locations, and that's clearly just stratching the surface. Nick Cooper ( talk) 16:31, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

This has just been marked as {{dubious}}, but there's a picture of it here. Whether, as a temporary job just for a couple of days far a movie, it merits inclusion in the article is another issue.-- AntientNestor ( talk) 08:30, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
