Talk:Deidre Willmott

Reinstated the word "controversial"

I have reinstated the word contorversial in "she was a controversial Chief of Staff", as this is supported by the references. If you disagree please discuss here before taking further action. --Design (talk) 12:48, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Hmm. perhaps I was wrong. I think the word "controversial" could use some clarification. --Design (talk)

Cameron Morse

In April 2011 Crikey published an article "FMG edits history while video of Twiggy’s “superb” native title meeting taken down" by Tom Cowie [1] which includes reference to edits by Cameron Morse of Wikipedia articel about FMG, Andrew Forrest, and Deidre Willmott. --Design (talk) 13:20, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Notability

Discussion of notability has been moved to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deidre Willmott. Twigfan (talk) 00:57, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

References

Noting that I've proposed the article for deletion, can somebody go through the references and alter the references to { { cite web | url = | title = | date = } }. I'm not doing this because I'm subsuming the article will be deleted as non-notable. Twigfan (talk) 23:07, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

"Withdrawing" her candidacy

The article says the Willmott "withdrew" her candidacy for state election. However this article suggests that "the rug was pulled from beneath her when the political resurrection of Colin Barnett forced her to stand aside". That sounds like a forced resignation... Twigfan (talk) 10:00, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

The source does not say she was forced to resign. You're interpreting the text and adding your own meaning to it. Until you have a WP:RS that says she was forced to resign, it should not be in the text. --LauraHale (talk) 10:49, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, but what was she forced to do then? Quoting the article again:

the rug was pulled from beneath her when the political resurrection of Colin Barnett forced her to stand aside.

It says, [Deidre Willmott] was... forced... to stand aside

Okay, right. She wasn't forced to resign. She was forced to stand aside. What I want to know, is what's the difference? Twigfan (talk) 12:50, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
