Revision as of 21:11, 10 June 2015
The Subject of this article
This is an article about The Met, the TV series, not about the Metropolitan Police Service. I just removed a section ("Murder inquiry by the Met") which had no particular relevance to the TV series. I will add an object template help clarify the difference. Please ensure that material posted on this page is relevant to The Met, the TV series. Robin (talk) 03:48, 10 June 2015 (IST)
- Because it has been extensively referenced on Facebook, Twitter and elsewhere, I have reinserted the article heading "Murder inquiry by the Met" with a wikilink to the removed section.--Patrick Haseldine (talk) 11:30, 10 June 2015 (IST)
- Patrick, I just re-removed it. I have just clarified Wikispooks:Style_Guide#Focus for your benefit, and may I particularly refer you to Wikispooks:Style_Guide#Avoid_Repetition, since the material in question is repeated on several pages elsewhere on the site, and perhaps would be better deleted from some of those too. Like you, I would like to see a murder inquiry, but this page is not about that, it is about a television series. Robin (talk) 16:24, 10 June 2015 (IST)
- Dear Robin, I wrote formally to the Met's Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe on 28 May 2015 requesting that Scotland Yard launch a long-overdue murder inquiry into the targeting of Bernt Carlsson on Pan Am Flight 103 in December 1988. That historic letter appears just once on Wikispooks: here. I continue to be puzzled by your reference to "focus" in relation to The Met but to say I'm extremely vexed with your admonition for me to "avoid repetition" has to be an understatement. Will you undo your latest edit, or shall I?--Patrick Haseldine (talk) 22:11, 10 June 2015 (IST)
