Orwell[edit]

That George Orwell and Alaric Jacob both went to the same school properly belongs to the section about Jacob's early life, not to the one about his troubles at the BBC.Ojevindlang (talk) 06:35, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, George Orwell's motives for writing his famous list are very relevant in a discussion of its possible effect on Jacob's establishment rights att the BBC. Ojevindlang (talk) 06:48, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The main irritation is that incorrect information was added to this article and had to be removed. A separate article on Orwell's list has been created so that discussion of Orwells motives can go there instead of cluttering up other articles. Motmit (talk) 18:04, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
