Roger Hallam → Roger Hallam (activist) – No indication that this is the primary topic over Roger Hallam (Australian politician), a fairly senior state government minister. Page views are not an acceptable rationale, and WP:RECENTISM to boot. Frickeg ( talk) 21:22, 30 June 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. — Newslinger talk 22:36, 8 July 2019 (UTC) --Relisting.

I can not find any information on such a PhD programme on the web site of the King's College. Could someone verify this and possibly correct? -- Sascha.leib ( talk) 09:48, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
I've slightly changed that wording in line with your discussion above. Check that you're both happy with it please. Liamcalling ( talk) 11:08, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
Currently the situation on these comments seems to be this. Hallam himself has apologised for them. His organisation Extinction Rebellion have disowned them and asked him to step back from his position with them (it's not clear whether they mean temporarily or permanently). His publisher has dropped him in protest. In general, there has been widespread criticism of the comments from many different quarters, including the Foreign Minister of Germany.
However, someone has edited this page with a lengthy defence of the comments (which - I feel the need to emphasise once again - Hallam himself has apologised for) and without any mention of the controversy around them. This is a ludicrous flouting of POV rules and makes a mockery of the article. I hadn't even heard of Roger Hallam till half an hour ago, so don't particularly want to make a major change. However (if nobody else does it first) I will remove that defence later today unless someone here wants to attempt to justify it. Liamcalling ( talk) 11:32, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
