[edit] Getting there...

This article is slowly getting there thanks to me! :). One thing that needs to be done is, a brief introduction. I do not have the mental capacity to write an introduction right now (damn sleepers!) so anyone else feel free. 88.109.213.233 15:32, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

I have removed part of your edits because the one of the sources quoted does not exist, and the other has nothing to do with anything stated. If you come up with actual sources then feel free to replace what I have removed. I have never heard any of this before and doubt it is actually true. I do not know why you have added the NPOV tag, because it is your own edits that have caused it to need this if anything. I do not know what you are bragging about really...

Are you referring to this text? You were'nt very specific: In March 2006, the show came under fire for reportedly forcing a child participating on the show to digest his own faeces1, in an attempt to change his 'fast-food lifestyle'. Both Gillian McKeith and Channel 4, who air the show, were subsequently reported to the NSPCC and investigated for child abuse. However, on March 28th 2006, it emerged that both parties were cleared of any wrongdoing. Two days later, Gillian admitted to eating human excrement herself because of its supposed high levels of nutrients2. 88.109.223.182 14:39, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Although these sources are not correct, these allegations were proved to be true and we have discussed this before on Wikipedia I think? Can't find anything on here right now, I will look for the sources (Telegraph was one) later. jd || talk || 14:51, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I reverted them because I had never heard of it and because of the lack of sources. I'm not saying it's not true, I just think actual sources need to be found before something like that is included in any article. Tartan 15:14, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mediation

I have called for mediation on this article. I do not appreciate the note at the top of the page and think you are being rather stubborn. All I am asking for is for either REAL sources, or the section to be deleted. Tartan 15:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

There are laods of sources 4 this I will find some n report back! Alex —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.110.10.37 (talk • contribs) .

Hi, I've added some info about the PhD; regarding the NSPCC debacle, I've added a citations required tag. Obviously, if references aren't forthcoming, the sentences should be removed. Addhoc 17:37, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I knew that bit was true but the second bit seems a little odd and I cannot find any references. I'll be away for two weeks starting on the 7th so I though bringing in some others to help before then would help. Tartan 20:48, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I've removed the section and would obviously request that it should only be reinntroduced if references are found. Thanks, Addhoc 10:55, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

lol we are arguing a lot about Gillian over on her page and been told off on the Biographies of Living Persons issues, but no-one's mentioned her doing anything like this:)Merkinsmum 03:50, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
