Recurring themes

Thoughts on a section/sentence outlining recurring use of names such as Tom Logan, Donnelly-McPartlin, Madeley Finnegan etc.? --82.35.199.221 (talk) 22:43, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

GA

Good to see that this made GA status so quickly. Makes a change from stupid admins deleting the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.222.167.122 (talk) 12:04, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ad Copy

Reads like a pitch to potential advertisers: too many references to who its readers are - City workers and university graduates all earning loads of money, apparently. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.168.225.46 (talk) 11:59, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One reference, taken from coverage by a reliable source. bridies (talk) 15:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One completely irrelevant reference taken from one source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.40.217.18 (talk) 09:17, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Right, how can an article focussing on the subject be "irrelevant"? Claims don't require multiple sources. bridies (talk) 12:28, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Paywall

Don't know whether this needs a new section, or how best to reference it, but the website now charges you to read more than 7 articles in a 30-day period... NJHartley (talk) 13:35, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have just added archive links to one external link on The Daily Mash. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/20090703075338/http://www.thefreesociety.org:80/Columnists/Neil-Rafferty/new-labour-and-the-bully-state to http://www.thefreesociety.org/Columnists/Neil-Rafferty/new-labour-and-the-bully-state

"left wing"

Describing The Daily Mash as 'left wing' is inaccurate. 51.9.205.54 (talk) 10:29, 24 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
