Talk:Winnie Ewing

message: I noticed that edits were made to Winnie Ewing's article to add her to the 'LGBT rights opposition' category and added text stating "joined her son Fergus Ewing in opposing repeal [of section 2A]". I was suprised to hear this and I checked the details of the vote [1] and found that both Ewings (not including Margaret) abstained rather than opposed. I see that the wording simply means "did not vote for repeal" but I this gives the notion that the Ewings voted against as opposed to not voting at all. I have changed the article to note this and have removed the 'LGBT rights opposition' category as many MSPs effectively abstained by not being present for the vote (such as Donald Dewar) and it is unfair to lump them in with the Tories or Souter.
Points taken.  I udnertand that nthey delibertaley choose not to support repeal - a message in itself at a time when Parliament was polarised on the issue. Thanks.--Sjharte 17:21, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: In editing in references from a new source article https://www.thenational.scot/news/18422743.winnie-ewing-woman-helped-put-snp-scotland-map/ I have made some adjustments and then made the fatal mistake of leaving the page without saving. Attempted to retrieve the position, and apologise for any editorial errors remaining. Tried to fix a deadlink to BBC re-broadcast of BBC Alba 'Madame Ecosse' film but could not find original for that.
Please be kind if you are hacing to update the page as a result of my interventions, apologies for any issues.
