Do we need to ref. stuff in this article? I removed "mentions company name" from the Bloomberg link - beasue this could get very messy "mentions time of abduction" etc... However if some brave soul wants to go to the <ref> format, then I don't see a problem. Rich Farmbrough. 23:16, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
I am not generally in favour of all that, as long as you are easily able to find the source you got the info from if challenged. But as this issue unravels over the next few days I'm sure someone will end up taking care of it - 'cos this is going to be big.
This article is a very slightly paraphrased version of the BBC article cited at the bottom. Unless I'm very mistaken, this is plagiarism and illegal, not to mention against Wikipedia policy.-- Eitan1989 01:20, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
I've put all times in 12 hour format (X:XX xm) at the moment because three out of four entries were already so. Personally I'd prefer to use 24 hour format. Is there any documented consensus within the community about either style and where to use them? ◄ ИΞШSΜΛЯΞ ► 02:29, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
sorry the A249 doesn't go anywhere near Tonbridge, it goes from sheppy to maidstone. A26, A227, A21 etc maybee but that - 160.5.247.213 02:37, 23 February 2006 (UTC) (Pickle_UK not logged in)
Have these bank robbers seen the new Harrison Ford movie, Firewall? Their methods were very similar (kidnap bank manager's family, etc.) JackO'Lantern 03:12, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
Edited to change Stockport (a town in the NW) to Stockbury (a village in Kent)
Could we just have the value in £, and provide a link to £ for people to convert the values? Think it would look neater, but maybe that's not a priority. Just a thought. 57.66.51.165 11:39, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
It has been confirmed that the amount stolen was actually in the area of £50 million, I have not altered this information as I do not know how to translate £'s into foreign currencies exactly. Can someone please see to this, and alter the front page also? BritBoy 19:01, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
Don't worry I have done it myself (Dollar and Euro figures are rounded to 1 decimal place). I have altered the page accordingly, deleting all out of date links. BritBoy 19:23, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
If estimated ammount stolen has a range of £25 million then the accuracy of any conversions should by quite innacurate. You cant make information more accurate by changing the currency. -- 82.38.56.218 08:12, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

This is scheduled to run on the main page in 13 hours' time but there are concerns raised at Wikipedia:Main Page/Errors. Could page watchers please have a look and resolve the issues raised? Schwede 66 08:55, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
These two recent edits by 2a00:23c6:3081:4501:bca7:302b:1aa:97a5 may well be true but they need better sourcing. Firstly, Murray's lawyer says in the "Cage-fighter Jailed Over £53m Kent Securitas Raid" BBC source that they will appeal the sentence; secondly you can't give a garbled reference for a TV show without a time stamp since this is a featured article and referencing standards are higher than normal. Happy to discuss further if you want to 2a00:23c6:3081:4501:bca7:302b:1aa:97a5. Mujinga ( talk) 19:37, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
