Repeated Vandalism[edit]

I've now stopped following the Law Quarterly Review page and will make no further edits to it. 19/04/2022. Hopefully somebody will give it some page protection given the ongoing editorializing vandalism from one user with multiple IP addresses. -Jy Houston' ==

The publisher of this journal or its editor keep deleting the critique in the respected Times Higher Education Supplement about this journal not complying with international standards of collective editing, blind review and the Equality Act 2010. The publisher needs to be banned from deleting this critique: see Times Higher Edudcation and also the Society of Legal Scholars reporter. <https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/concern-over-oxbridge-dominance-uks-oldest-law-journal>  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:85A1:A801:E99B:432F:7773:122E (talk) 09:39, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply] 

Repeated vandalism in that credible criticxism from the Society of Legal Scholars Reporter and Times Higher ed as follows is being deleted. Wiki is about accepted respected and published criticim and the publisher needs to stop removing the following criticism:

The LQR's has come under fire for not allowing women and BAME academics and equal opportunity to participate as editors and insisting that one old retired white male be the sole editor and that he not use blind review to make review objective and have failed to change this unfairness and breach of the Equality Act 2010 notwithstanding reports about the LQR in the Times Higher Edudcation and also the Society of Legal Scholars reporter. <https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/concern-over-oxbridge-dominance-uks-oldest-law-journal> The publishers have tried to skirt the issue by pointing out that Lord Reed and other senior judges appear as an advisory board suggesting the judges support non-blind review, when there is no way Lady Hale and Lord Reed would support a system of subjective review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:85A1:A801:9C48:EBD1:DED8:7E1E (talk) 17:28, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 29 April 2022[edit]

Request from Thomson Reuters, publisher of Law Quarterly Review - please replace:

“The LQR's current editor-in-chief is the retired teacher, Peter Mirfield, formerly of the University of Leeds and thereafter University of Oxford, but retired from Oxford in 2014.”

With: Emeritus professor not professor and it needs to be clarified whether that was a full professorship carrying a full professor salary or professorship in name only.

“The LQR's current Editor is Professor Emeritus Peter Mirfield, formerly of the University of Leeds and thereafter Jesus College in the University of Oxford, who retired from Oxford in 2017.” Journalsed (talk) 09:45, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • We do not normally give biographical details for editors, that kind of stuff belongs in their bios. This article needs significant cleanup. I have modified the text to reflect this. --Randykitty (talk) 15:48, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
