::Yeah I thought I'd come on and add that in case everyone else that just heard him challenge the Wikipedia community to do so was busy, but you beat me to it ;) Sean 11:09, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hehe, aren't we all checking out Michael Portillo too? ;) Great programme, but i was suprised that Clive let that pretensious anti-Wiki naysayer make his outrageous claims without any retort.  Unusually quiet of Clive.  Lurkio 18:24, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well I'm glad the actually had some fair criticism of Wikipedia by comparison to Britannica's experts-only style and so on, but there were a couple of claims that require a "citation needed" tag :) Sean 00:18, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think Clive is a reliable source, if we stretch the definition. Tim Vickers 03:43, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

text: "Now, I wonder if my Wikipedia entry will record the fact that I've made a program about Wikipedia?" Very nice. Λυδαcιτγ 04:52, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Second Tim on the reliability of Clive (and the BBC; although it was more light entertainment than thorough journalism).  He's a national treasure!  ;-)  I did particularly like the section in the programme where he turned the spotlight onto the entry for "cat" in the early editions of some of our esteemed "paper and ink" rivals.  And some say WP has too much POV ...  --Plumbago 08:47, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I have a pic (about twenty pics, one is bound to be usable) of Clive Anderson I took for this page. They're currently on my work laptop, but I should have that home and be able to upload the pic early next week - David Gerard 20:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

message: While the article does not indicate any prominent cases Anderson was involved with, it seems desirable that his former occupation is given in the resume, if only as an indication of the approach he uses in his work. "Criminal law" did seem an unnecessary elaboration though, so I have cut it from the introduction. The use of "barrister turned comedy writer" in the caption on the relevant page of Radio Times for the "Story" programme was surely meant as a compliment to this site, another reason to keep it. Philip Cross 21:08, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no question he is known as a former barrister, I'd rather put the comedy writer first but couldnt reword it in a way I liked so I have left it and I do agree that the barrister is notable enough for the opening, SqueakBox 21:14, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

message: What's the evidence that he edited as that IP? Videmus Omnia  Talk  21:16, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Huh? As what IP? Your comment is incomprehensible so please clarify, SqueakBox 00:35, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Please look slightly up the page, at the templates there. This should improve your comprehension somewhat. Videmus Omnia  Talk  01:01, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep, we need a good source for that (I'll relisten to the wikipedia story prog tomorrow and see if we can source it from there or not) and I've deleted it, SqueakBox 01:05, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: He stated on the programme that he made this edit. Paul B 09:03, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Quite, I've restored it. User:David_Gerard supervised the change. I think people are forgeting that things like WP:Cite are guidelines, not rules and should be implemented in conjunction with WP:Use common sense. John 20:30, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I can also confirm that he did make that edit, as featured on the radio programme. I originally added it to the article. The template for a "Notable Wikipedian" appears to require a user name rather than an IP address, so I will remove the template. Snowman (talk) 09:03, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
