thread_title: I think the last sentence doesn't belong to the rest of the article.

message: "It is believed that they discussed the possibility of violently overthrowing the troubled government of James Callaghan and replacing it with a dictatorship." -- This is a horrible weasel for such a libellous accusation. Let's pin this down plainly (who accused whom of what when) or remove it. -- 201.78.236.99 15:51, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Has anyone seen that his book The Trap actually matches perfectly the developments in the world? http://www.sirjamesgoldsmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/The-Trap-Sir-James-Goldsmith.pdf  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.181.160.138 (talk) 22:51, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

message: Interesting. Born in Paris, descended from German Jews, married/had affairs with Europeans and South Americans and died in Spain. What a strange lot British Eurosceptics are. I thought it was just the aristocracy that were mad.

message: This article is mentioned in the current edition of Private Eye (1305). The Daily Mail apologised for a story about Goldsmith which quoted him as saying that Jewish people who died in the Holocaust "lacked the initiative to get out." He said no such thing, but it had appeared in his Wikipedia article between 22 January 2010 and 16 February 2010 (it was both added and removed by an IP editor). Somewhat bizarrely, it still appears in a version of the article at dictionary.sensagent.com. It is also a mystery how an obscure and way out of date mirror of a Wikipedia article came to be considered as a reliable source by the Mail.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 09:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

message: This doesn't make sense: "His father was Jewish and his mother Catholic; Goldsmith was Jewish and his brother was baptized in Catholicism: that was considered afterwards as a formality."
So does that mean that one brother was baptized as Catholic and the other wasn't?
And how could James Goldsmith be Jewish? Under Jewish law, one is only a Jew if one's mother is a Jew. Did the mother convert to Judaism?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.224.1.113 (talk) 02:40, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

message: There is no need to mention whether or not he was the father of Princess Diana. This is gossip and the one source is unrelaible. (Coachtripfan (talk) 17:07, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Goldsmith died of pancreatic cancer.  Statistically, approximately 25% of pancreatic cancers can be traced to smoking as the cause.  Did Goldsmith smoke?Betathetapi545 (talk) 12:36, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't relevant unless it is covered by reliable sources. It is well known that lung cancer is often caused by smoking, and the article says that 85% of cases are caused by smoking.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 14:25, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
