1 October 2024
- 15:2215:22, 1 October 2024 diff hist 0 The Allisons I can only find one source which says John Alford has died and it's Lincolnshire Live, which can't be used as a source on here. I doubt he died on 22 Sep, as the interview with his daughter was put up at 3pm on the 23rd. The article actually says he died Nov or early Dec 2023 but then goes on to say he was 84, the age he would've turned at the end of Dec 2023. He's clearly dead but we need a source which gives a date of death, preferably one that's acceptable on here. current

28 August 2024
- 02:5602:56, 28 August 2024 diff hist −184 Terry-Thomas on screen, radio, stage and record The person who voiced that character in Inspector Gadget may have been trying to do an impression of Terry-Thomas but it clearly wasn't him. It didn't sound enough like him to make you think it could be him, he wasn't credited when the voice actors were named at the end and experts on the man say there's no way an unwell Terry Thomas came out of retirement to voice a character on I.Gadget!All sites that claim he did got their info from the unreliable IMDB, which can't be used as a source on here

- 01:1701:17, 18 August 2024 diff hist −27 Ronnie Corbett Removed the unsourced claim that he was a writer. Why has that claim been on here for so long? What did he write?
15 August 2024
- 00:0000:00, 15 August 2024 diff hist −29 This monkey's gone to heaven Undid revision 1239222798 I can't see how this qualifies as a quotation rather than just a song title. Please add a source if you think it does. Tag: Undo
4 August 2024
- 23:1823:18, 4 August 2024 diff hist −42 Amber Rutter Removed unsourced, irrelevant, outdated information. I have no idea why we need to know how much a shooter weighed almost a decade ago, or at any time, for that matter!
20 July 2024
- 01:4601:46, 20 July 2024 diff hist −64 Shy Guy Added the fact Aswad and Easther Bennett covered the song. I also removed reference to.two unsigned acts singing the song on one episode of a talent show because that sort of thing isn't counted as a cover version on here.

- 03:5603:56, 7 July 2024 diff hist +30 Deaths in 2024 The Instagram post announcing Dawn Hollyoak's death appears to have been put up on Friday night and the source doesn't mention when she died, so I've added "(death announced on this date)"
28 June 2024
- 18:1418:14, 28 June 2024 diff hist −7 Luz Long Reversed unnecessary edit. I'm sure most people will agree that athletes win silver medals rather than achieve them. They may not have won their event but they have won second prize

- 21:4321:43, 10 June 2024 diff hist −266 Mary Berry Liverpool-fan Paul Hollywood was clearly joking when he said Mary Berry is an Everton fan. Also, the cited source isn't acceptable on here.
9 June 2024
- 21:4921:49, 9 June 2024 diff hist −1,164 Alan Hansen Part of the reason for this edit is to get a reminder of what the general consensus is re: counting awards given via online polls as "honours" on here. I thought we avoided doing that but will happily be corrected.

28 May 2024
- 21:4821:48, 28 May 2024 diff hist −29 In the Midnight Hour As far as I can tell, The Doors only played "In The Midnight Hour" whilst jamming with Van Morrison's group Them at the end of one of their concerts, so you surely can't say this is one of The Doors' songs based on that.

- 22:2522:25, 4 May 2024 diff hist −54 Gilbert Prilasnig I can find a story about him agreeing to play for Cambridge United's reserves but then changing his mind at the last minute so he could have a trial at Ipswich instead but there's no solid proof out there that shows he was officially a Cambridge United player, in fact there's only one site that mentions he was apparently registered with Cambridge and it isn't one that can be used as an acceptable source on here.

- 02:5902:59, 2 May 2024 diff hist +2,779 Ray Lewis (youth worker) How the h did "Margaret May Forest", who clearly knew Ray(the clue is in the fact she's never edited any other Wiki page) get away with removing unflattering but true information about him in July 2022? I've now restored some of said info. current
4 April 2024
- 03:3403:34, 4 April 2024 diff hist −348 Touch and Go (band) The cited source doesn't say Charlie Gillett produced any of their songs, nor does it say he was ever a member of the band. To quote Touch and Go(via their website when his death was announced) - "Charlie Gillett was the co-founder of Oval Music and A&R to Touch and Go." current
- 03:2803:28, 4 April 2024 diff hist −326 Charlie Gillett Removed unsourced info that contradicts claims made on the Wiki page of the subject in question, i.e that he produced Lene Lovich's biggest hit and the album it came from. Also, although his record label signed Touch and Go, he didn't work on their songs.

21 March 2024
- 05:3805:38, 21 March 2024 diff hist +217 Danny Baker Removed unsourced nonsense about him playing truant until he was 16. I was surprised to see the claim he left school when he was 16 has been up here for many years because whenever he's talked about leaving school, he's always said he left when he was 14, as shown in the source I've added.
17 March 2024
- 04:3904:39, 17 March 2024 diff hist −328 The Italian Job How were the patently incorrect box office figures allowed to remain on here for so long? First of all, the source is from IMDB, so can't be used on here and secondly, the source says that was the figures it took on its re-release in 2019 and 2020! The reports that say it grossed over 10 million dollars seem a lot more accurate but I can't find a good source for that, so won't add any figure, which seems a better idea than adding one that is clearly wrong and not properly sourced!.
