message: This page needs a vast amount more work! I've added some history but it still needs a lot more: on the 1940s, on the role of Hugh Cudlipp, on King's demise in 1968, on the paper in the 1970s, on the Maxwell debacle Paulanderson 21:37, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. I have tried to do some general copy editing and tidying of this article but it remains weak. Improvement of the History section, and in particular the addition of quality ciations to the section, would be a big step forward.Rangoon11 (talk) 13:27, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Needs work

message: I think the Mirror's politics should be described as Labour rather than left-wing. These two things are not exactly the same - like most tabloids the Mirror can slip into right-wing populism all too easily, but it has always supported Labour even so.  MFlet1 06:49, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Political allegiance 

message: There is too much in this piece which is essentially opinion or comment which I would probably agree with, but nonetheless is unsourced. I have added a few points which are verifiable as taken from the newspaper directly.Chemical Engineer 22:53, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Scorer is described as innovative.  I always thought it was a rip-off of The Sun's Striker.   Have I got that the wrong way 'round?  Striker seems the more intuitive title, convincing me more it was first.

well worth watching. It traces how the content changed over time and paints a fairly grim picture about the future of the media under Murdoch's monopoly  —Preceding unsigned comment added by JamesPat (talk • contribs) 01:37, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: First tabloid?

message: Is the "Notable people" section appropriate? It seems out of place. I don't think every CEO or leader of an organization is typically listed on other articles. I am inclined to remove the list of editors, and possibly the list of contributors, too. Anybody else care to weigh in? *Seen a Mike* 16:21, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd consider the list of editors useful encyclopedic material. The list of contributors is by its nature going to be more selective but since they all seem to have Wikipedia articles I can't argue with any of the individual entries. Barnabypage (talk) 16:25, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

text: I'd be perfectly happy with a separate Editors list - it's probably a better solution, indeed. Barnabypage (talk) 08:45, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

message: The Daily Mirror say that a: "Shadow Minister" brands Jeremy Corbyn a 'f****** disgrace' after fiery meeting in wake of Paris attacks" Daily Mirror, 16 Nov 2015. Without giving a shred of evidence, or naming the Minister said to be involved, is not the Mirror story a 'f****** disgrace'? That said, might not this 'news story' be reported as Crude Dis-information?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.41.56.85 (talk) 19:10, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
