that from a neutral editor. I note that no one has substantially altered the text of the paragraph since, so it appears no one else objects to the new wording. While the edit removed the reference, I suspect that this would be due to unfamiliarity with the
Knowledge (XXG) interface rather than bad faith.-
464:
Could I suggest that we take another shot at re-writing the paragraphs to state more clearly that all allegations were unproven? To have several paragraphs outlining the nature of allegations and then one line at the end where it states that no allegation is arguably libellous and would demonstrate a
1147:
I am the subject of this article. There are two issues: 1. The balance of the article relating to allegations against me which are wrong, unfair and damaging. They were withdrawn by the complainant after a high level and extended police investigation and a decision by the police to take no action.
446:
It seems unfair that unproven allegations are reported in significant depth but that the allegations were withdrawn or not proven. If the allegations are not to be removed because they were widely reported, there should be sufficient commentary on how the allegations were withdrawn and or unproven.
405:
Upon reading this article it was clear that a number of allegations that were initially made relating to Worth's resignation have since either been withdrawn or were unproven. While it is clear that Worth lost the confidence of the Prime
Minister, it would probably be unfair to have the full history
652:
I don't think banning is warranted. One edit was adding useful information to the article. The other was something I would have preferred he make a request on this talk page about, since it involved a paragraph critical of him. I don't think the rewording was objectionable and I would have accepted
1167:
Accuracy: I consider that almost every fact in this article is accurate - that is, it is backed up by independent, reliable sources. There are four sentences for which I did not find sources: these are now marked as "citation needed". One sentence is marked as "better source needed" as the current
430:
These allegations were widely reported in the news media, and are clearly highly relevant. We need to be careful to report them in the same terms as the media used. The article appears to be relatively restrained in which allegations are reported. I see you added that Worth denied the allegations.
1178:
Coverage after
Parliament: I searched a number of media sources but could not much coverage of activity after Parliament. As such there is little I can add to this section. However, if you are aware of any secondary coverage (ie information not put out by the subject or those associated with the

Dr Worth fiddled his own
Knowledge (XXG) entry—this is interesting—was caught, and was told off by Knowledge (XXG). That was done instead of doing proper housework, like going to the Brookers website for the nation’s law directory and correcting his own entry, which even today says Dr Worth is a

I suggest you add a sentence or two giving Worth's explanation, but you must not make claims he did not himself make (that were reported in a reliable source). You cannot therefore say as you have done above that Worth denied the allegations, according to the Herald article of 3 July he 'denied

I think the incident is too minor to be added to the article. TV3 news last night gave a list of his previous misdeeds which included the camel riding incident in Egypt when he should have been attending a war memorial service, and the visit he made to a victim in hospital, neither of which we

Worth denied committing any crime, but the article does not suggest he committed a crime, only that the police were investigating an allegation. For the police to investigate does suggest to me that some crime was alleged, but I am not sure what crime this might be. The subject of the police

I'd like to propose adding this new section to the article. I've used
Hansard rather than theyworkforyou links, because Hansard is more authoritative (I believe). I've not made the addition myself, since as the discoverer of the COI, I could be seen to have a COI myself.
1171:
Fairness: It is my personal opinion that the article as it stands fairly represents the events of 2009, at least as they are known to the public. I have reworded the
Resignation section substantially and the last paragraph makes it clear how all allegations

Since Worth has left
Parliament and no longer is a MP, it would also seem that the event is no longer current, so it would be important to remove any "events in play" that have since subsequently become old news and/or unproven.
