Antisemitism controversy in the template[edit]

Nobody denies that it has received coverage; however, the standard necessary to put something potentially-negative in a template, under WP:BLP, is extremely high (since a template allows no room for context). And the WP:DUE weight has to be weighed against what is already in the template. In this case, it's absurd to suggest that this scandal (which, going by the sources in that page, has largely - though not exclusively - played itself out in op-eds and tabloids) is the most notable thing about Corbyn's leadership; this doesn't reflect the weight on his page, even before accounting for the fact that the relevant section has been tagged as undue itself for several months. Making it the headline item about his leadership - and indeed the only item listed, aside from formulaic things about his campaign and cabinet - is giving it more weight than the sourcing that has been presented so far can justify. Beyond that, the page itself is not obviously and directly about Corbyn - while he figures prominently, its primary subject is Labour, not Corbyn. --Aquillion (talk) 23:01, 6 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Are you seriously trying to suggest that a Template talk title "Jeremy Corbyn" isn't actually about Jeremy Corbyn? Alssa1 (talk) 00:24, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
