- Hello Meticulo,
- There is a box on top of the Campaign for Independent Britain page that states the article may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia.
- The article has now been edited and the changes should reflect the tonal issues stated.
- Text that could be construed as promotional or opinionated has been removed.
- With these changes taken into account can this box now be removed please?
- Many thanks. Patrick Jesmond (talk) 09:11, 14 February 2023 (UTC)
