As there has been an ongoing edit-war, with no non-edit-war related edits, for the last 45 days (indeed, these are the only edits since January 1), with no sign of discussion taking place otherwise, I have reverted the article to the pre-EW state and full protected it for 10 days. Discussion should take place below on the disputed content until WP:CONSENSUS is reached for its inclusion or removal. - The Bushranger One ping only 19:01, 13 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yes, but see above. DoktorB is right to the very limited extent that iff there is a general rule that the abandoned proposals in the Sixth Periodic Review ought not to be mentioned in individual constituency articles, then there is no good reason why this article should be an exception to the general rule. But I detect no consensus so far that there is any such general rule, and discussions on that ought to be in a central point where they are more likely to attract the attention of editors generally interested in constituency articles. So I think debate ought really to take place on the link given above. Sam Blacketer (talk) 19:10, 13 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Two penn'orth: there ought to be some sort of rule that the Sixth Review proposals should be mentioned on the Sixth Review page and not on the individual constituency articles, and particularly should not be mentioned if they were only part of the draft and not the final proposals. The East Ham page, for example, does not mention the proposed East Ham seat in the (final recommendations in the) Initial Report - one could of course mention a ton of other examples. And as most of the additions to the constituency pages about the proposals in the Sixth Review were only added by Doktorb himself in a flurry of activity...
