Missing )

Hi
In the "Controversies" paragraph, the "(Subsequent ..." sentence seems to miss the closing paranthesis.

BLP issues

A link to Companies House was used in a way that seems inappropriate to me, even if it weren't wrong, which it apparently was. We attributed a place of residence that was not in the references given, and in any event linking to what could very well be the home address of a prominent and arguably controversial person does not fit with the values of Wikipedia. Please do not revert without engaging in a discussion.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 18:02, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Climate change "denialism"?

Nobody disputes that Mr Delingpole is a critic of what is referred to here as "the scientific consensus" on man-made climate change. However, the word (if it is a word) "denialism" is a smear intended to take a side on this issue with that so-called "consensus".

I have said many many times here on wikipedia that any encyclopedia should be strictly neutral in it's characterisations of the individuals that is features. Neutral. However, many people who edit on here engage in the smearing of people that they disagree with, citing news media articles - many of which make no pretence of neutrality - in order to promote their personal views.

Now, you will notice here that I am not telling you what my personal position is on climate change. My opinion on the matter is irrelevant. I would like the smear directed at Mr Delingpole to be removed, and his explicit opposition to the narrative on "man-made" climate change to be couched in strictly neutral language.

I am going to remove the smear. I don't think that this will in any way detract from the article. I fully expect that it will be reinstated. So I do this by way of protest. John2o2o2o (talk) 09:29, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
