Picture of Carla Lockhart?

[edit]

Could somebody upload a picture of Carla Lockhart for the infobox of the MP's article? Thanks. 73.168.5.183 (talk) 04:40, 4 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Unsourced material.

[edit]

@Asarlaí I reverted part of your edit which you have readded. My message explained my reasoning which you have ignored. You added; "The counter-protesters waved Israeli flags and reportedly shouted sectarian, racist, misogynistic and other abuse at the walkers" None of the sources linked say this. Some politicians are quoted as saying there was sectarian and racist abuse which if we include needs to be quoted. I don't know where misogynistic is coming from as that's not present in any of the three sources linked. I also don't understand why you want to remove the fact the Parades Commission approved both demonstrations. Please lets discuss here. Salmon Of Ignorance (talk) 07:15, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Salmon Of Ignorance: None of the sources linked say this - My sources did say that...
  • "Hundreds of protesters with Israel flags, as well as Union flags, turned out to oppose the march" [1]
  • "Footage circulating on social media also appears to show masked counterprotesters hurling misogynistic abuse and other profanities at those taking part in the march" [2]
  • "Hundreds of people took part in the Scarva Concerned Residents demonstration against the march, which saw a crowd, many masked, shouting abuse at the marchers" [3]
You could have simply changed that to a quote if you preferred. Why did you delete it altogether?
Also, why did you delete the part where she called the protest dignified? And the part where she said she prevented a bloodbath?
Please see WP:REVONLY.
The bit about the Parades Commission is fine. – Asarlaí (talk) 09:05, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
It was the "sectarian, racist, misogynistic and other abuse" I took issue with which I specified in the second part of my comment, I assumed this was obvious considering it's clearly the more contentious part of the sentence.
On misogynistic abuse, I missed this one as you can see in the article they've misspelled it as "mysoginistic" so it didn't show up when I searched - although that does make me question the validity of the source.
On racist and sectarian abuse - these are unsourced and are clearly contentious as I stated which is why I removed them. It's not simply my preference to add quotations - it's my preference to not add unsourced material on a contentious topic.
As for the additional quotes you added from her this was an oversight, similar to you removing the parades commission I imagine. Salmon Of Ignorance (talk) 09:40, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
I've re-added the content but changed the wording so that the accusation of "shouting abuse" is attributed to "the IPSC, local politicians and the media". I hope this resolves the issue. – Asarlaí (talk) 10:16, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
I think that's a better way to word it. I hope you'll understand why I'm apprehensive to include something that isn't crystal clear on such a contentious issue. I doubt there will be new sources providing more clarity given the unfortunate recent developments in the region. Salmon Of Ignorance (talk) 10:49, 10 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
