Tone[edit]

Not sure whether this page was written by Hurst or his agent, but I've removed a lot of overly-promotional, unsourced blurb and added tags.unfortunately, this leaves the article a little unbalanced, with Hurst's public tantrum somewhat dominating the article: hopefully someone can add some other sourced detail, for balance ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 14:28, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing[edit]

The sourcing on this BLP is atrocious - is this person even notable? There are 26 sources, 19 of which are tweets. This needs to be remedied. VAXIDICAE💉 14:47, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Almost certainly unfortunately, given he would have acquired coverage for They Think It's All Over, though possibly worth an AfD just in case. I've expunged the 20 forbidden by the Bible; not sure about Chortle.--Laun chba ller 15:00, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They're not forbidden and can be used to source information about him, but not about other people (or about him by other people.) VAXIDICAE💉 15:03, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Twitter Suspension[edit]

Are there any good sources available for Hurst's recent Twitter suspension.

I believe changes documenting it are warranted following recent events. DanielJohnStevens (talk) 12:38, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've added it from Indy100, which at the time of my Google search was the only reliable source reporting it. Possibly showing my ignorance, but surely if he was suspended I wouldn't be able to see his account?--Laun chba ller 13:12, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like it it wasn't a long suspension as his account was re-instated pretty quickly. He definitely was suspended for a period of time though. DanielJohnStevens (talk) 17:31, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

He supported Brexit[edit]
