Surely the Wellcome Trust CEO? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.65.255.161 ( talk) 12:17, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
Mr Hall favours impartiality in broadcasting about IS. He continues to defy the PM and many MPs (including Muslims one) because ....... he knows best! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.101.201.5 ( talk • contribs) 23:45, 2 July 2015
The above should be in article. I have added it in. Here's a link re proof http://www.theguardian.com/media/2015/jul/02/bbc-rejects-mps-calls-to-refer-to-islamic-state-as-daesh. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.189.228.174 ( talk) 17:30, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
Hi Ghmyrtle - I read that Hall was ex-member of the Labour Party. Nevertheless without evidence, I have amended edit from previous two users. However numerous news stories support ISIS/ISIL controversy. This I deem with the other 2 users to be important to mention. If you disagree perhaps you should get others to add their contributions. It appears unfair that you persist that your view takes precedent over 3 other editors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.103.82.184 ( talk) 05:22, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Definitely should be mentioned - highly controversial in light of 38 people massacred in Tunisia. Helenaknowitall — Preceding undated comment added 18:11, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page. In my opinion, this is a contentious statement being added, and it is clearly unsourced as well as skirting undue weight. Also, the spate of new accounts created today who immediately find this article compels me to point out that Wikipedia frowns on misusing multiple accounts to create the appearance of consensus as well as canvassing people you know offsite to come here and support your position. Lastly, while edit warring will get you blocked, removal of contentious unsourced material from a Biography is specifically excused from that. Crow Caw 19:03, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
Dear Ghmyrtle - please explain why you have just deleted my changes to previous editors' versions. You cite that Daily Mail cannot be trusted yet I also cited the Independent. If you are claiming that newspapers cannot be relied upon as trusted sources then how come the Daily Telegraph is used as in connection with "Death Threats" topic. If anything ISIS issue in my opinion is much bigger and serious than the odd Top Gear fan getting worked up and making insubstantial threats. Certainly if the threats came from an organisation or group who had a history and reputation then yes it would be newsworthy. However as I do not suffer from megalomania, I do not delete whole topics by virtue of my decision alone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dollyreid ( talk • contribs) 23:09, 5 July 2015 (UTC)
