[edit] NPOV

This seems to be a rather long advert for Mr. Keen Lucifer(sc) 15:04, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

The first of your four tentative edits clearly demonstrates that this is most definitely not a "rather long advert for Mr Keen". I have therefore removed your seemingly unnecessary tag.Phase4 22:39, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello again. You may find it hard to believe but I hadn't thought to check the edit history before I edited so didn't realise you had contributed to this. Much as the Sheridan comment arguably adds some balance, this article is still rather effusive.

How do we know he is known as the rottweiler? How do we know he is one of the advocates most others fear appearing against. How do we know that the address he lives at is the "most prestigous" (not just prestigous or affluent) and indeed why should we care?

Is this man even notable? --Lucifer(sc) 11:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Lucifer. Have a look at the "References" section and I think you will find the Scotsman's Rich List piece is the source for the apparent lionising of Richard Keen. He's number 61 on the list.Phase4 16:50, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Well at least I have learnt a new word (lionising). Yes, I see your point here. Don't think that I necessarily concur with the Scotsman's editorial judgment but I suppose that is by-the-by. --Lucifer(sc) 14:21, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
