Talk:Mary Richardson

message: I think a photo of Mary Richardson or the cover of her book would really help this page be more interesting. Danielleb32 (talk) 16:40, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a photograph of her published in the March 11, 1914 issue of the Daily Mirror. I don't know enough about British copyright law to tell you if it could be added to Wikipedia or not. Kaldari (talk) 04:07, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

message: There are a few paragraphs towards the bottom of the article that present opinion as fact. While the author may be correct; such writing seems to violate the principle of neutrality. TRIKER1 (talk) 17:58, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Neutrality

message: The version of events given by this article describing the immediate aftermath of Richardson's attack on the Rokeby Venus give a very different impression than the account given by Richardson herself in Laugh A Defiance (chapter 35). According to Richardson, she was immediately attacked by a mob and there was a rather tumultuous melee involving herself, the mob, and the security guards prior to the "calm surrender".

thread_title:  Aftermath of Rokeby attack 

message: The entire "Slashing the Rokeby Venus" section was copied from The destruction of art: iconoclasm and vandalism since the French Revolution. I have deleted it for now. Someone should rewrite it, though, as it was Richardson's most famous act. Kaldari (talk) 22:37, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

message: The link in the quote connects to a general "here are all the people named Pankhurst" page. She was obviously talking about a specific person, and obviously one of the infamous suffragette Pankhurst family. I would guess Emmeline Pankhurst as they share a predilection for random violent terrorist acts, but someone should really find out for sure and change the link (and maybe insert a "[first name]" into the quote).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.61.204.116 (talk) 13:51, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

message: In the section on Militant actions, the first sentence reads:
:At the beginning of the 20th century, the suffragette movement, frustrated by a failure to achieve equal voting rights for women, ....
To anyone who has ever spent $10 in New Zealand ought to know, New Zealand had given all women the right to vote in parliamentary elections in 1893. Also, some women could already vote in local elections in England from 1894, so the above statement is an over-generalization, which results in systemic bias. The statement needs to be made more specific by explaining which jurisdiction the suffragists were wanting equal voting rights in and why they had become frustrated at the beginning of the 20th century and then waited 13 years before undertaking destruction of property crimes. There is about 20 years of history that is being glossed over by this vague statement. As a consequence I have downgraded the article to C class from B class because the coverage is inaccurate. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 23:57, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Systemic bias 

message: The image currently uploaded as "Mary Richardson's arrest after the attack" is NOT of Mary Richardson. It is a modified photograph of Sylvia Pankhurst's arrest in 1912, as many sources attest, for instance, The Times: 
I am not an experienced wiki user, can anyone please remove the picture?
Images of Richardson's arrest do exist, but they are copyrighted by the Museum of London: 
Thank you,
