Thought I’d have a look at your Wikipedia page Graham. Was very pleased I did because I came across your 2011 critique of the Today program which superbly hits the nail on the head. It also shows that in pre-trans-obsession days 😉 you had a commitment to decent debate, to truthfulness and transparency. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2011/jun/08/today-programme-the-ladykillers-graham-linehan
Wikipedia isn't exactly a bastion of scholarly and peer reviewed articles though is it? We get the few which are good (my DH has written a few on history and they are properly).
When I was teaching IT, I banned any use of Wikipedia as a reference for any work I set.
No, obviously not, but still, it is undeniably at least a starting point for things people generally are curious about. Millions of hits every month, it influences opinions. It would be nice if it was accurate, at a minimum.
Hi Graham, Please would you consider including this particular Voldemort's name (Challenor in case there is a divorce?) in every post about AC to make them easy to find?
I have recommended your substack as a repository of revelations several times but the lack of any labelling system in substack makes it difficult to track topics.
In the past, a Search for "Challenor" worked but more recent posts would be missed.
ps. You are very handsome! If I knew where you lived I would send you cake, booze, etc. (I've run out of grovel-ideas now!) :-D

They're showing the world who they really are. Good- let them.
So basically Wikipedia is under the groom spell too?
Troon, not groom. 😁 Interesting autocorrect though. 😎
