Needs a rewrite[edit]

I've updated this article to note that Cruddas has just successfully sued the Sunday Times for libel over this story. In light of that fact, it probably needs a broader rewrite, if not merging into Peter Cruddas or outright deletion. At the moment, it's basically implying allegations which the courts have found to be false. Robofish (talk) 21:03, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a [[tl|rewrite}} template, but there are articles stretching back years which need attention. If you want to take it to afd I'll back you on it. Paul MacDermott (talk) 22:07, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think it would be a bit hasty to do so just now (and I don't have the time), but I'll keep this article in mind. If I don't get round to rewriting it and no one else does either, taking it to AFD might be a good idea. Robofish (talk) 22:16, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, I think I'll redirect it to Cruddas' page for now, until it can be rewritten. There's also Sarah Southern which has some info about this as she had some involvement in the story. Paul MacDermott (talk) 22:44, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
