:CRYSTAL refers to editors forecasting the future. Afaics, the text is reporting forecasts, which is legitimate. It seems to be properly cited? --] (]) 07:48, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is presented early on in the article: |
|
::Its not limited to editors, and states "Misplaced Pages does not predict the future." The article is currently repeating predictions of pundits on what will happen to a nation in the future and in the lede (putting undue weight). Its way too much from my standpoint. ] (]) 11:51, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
|
"Following Brexit, EU law and the Court of Justice of the European Union no longer have primacy over British laws." |
|
:::To clarify: it seems to me that the predictions made by the proponents and opponents ''before'' the referendum certainly should be in the article because they so informed the debate. I don't see how that is Misplaced Pages predicting the future, especially since those predictions were so divergent. I agree that any new predictions in the light of subsequent reality should not be included.--] (]) 12:01, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
⚫ |
::::The last line of the lede does not seem to be anything but negative predictions, not all sides. ] (]) 12:24, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
:::::The solution in that case is to add the positive predictions, surely? --] (]) 15:36, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::Either, but I prefer Removal, as it seems to me the OP is kind of right. These were (they are not even are, they were made years ago) predictions, not facts. ] (]) 15:42, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::: Strong disagree. They should stay. It is a '''fact''' and an undeniable one at that, that there '''is''' (not past tense) a strong consensus amongst economists on these points. We don't also just "add positive" predictions, because that would be false balance. There is no strong academic consensus on these positive points. ] (]) 16:18, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
:::::::: It is not false balance to report the predictions of each campaign, indeed it is unbalanced to fail to do so. We ''should'' have the "£350m a day for the NHS", "immediate trade deal with the USA", "easiest trade deal ever", "same benefits as we have now", "]" arrangement, "no border down the Irish Sea", "massive reduction in immigration". etc. But I'm afraid I must agree that it would be a CRYSTAL violation to give space to predictions made after June 2016 unless the predicted event has already occurred. --] (]) 19:56, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::::Luxofluxo, if there are indeed available sources that use '''is''' then we can swap out the crystal content for those. ] (]) 22:35, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::::{{rto|Slatersteven}}, the ]s are that predictions were made and thus it is entirely valid to report each of those facts. It doesn't matter how long ago they were made. It doesn't matter whether they were right or wrong. (If events have proved them wrong{{snd}} and an RS says so, else it is OR{{snd}} then that is reportable too.) --] (]) 20:03, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
:::::::::Generally speaking we dont include predictions, this is the point of CRYSTAL and the policy is more important than whatever is going on here (appears might be ] or advocacy). ] (]) 22:39, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::Adding more nonsense (in this case predictions) is exactly the definition of false balance. Remove it all from the lede. ] (]) 21:35, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::::::{{rto|Jtbobwaysf}} I suggest that you have misread the policy. We don't include predictions as predictions, that certainly is CRYSTAL. The issue here that predictions ''were'' made on both sides of the debate leading up to the referendum and that they influenced how people voted. It is not CRYSTAL to record that those predictions were made{{snd}} the details of what they were are almost incidental but we have to say what they were. |
|
|
::::::::::] arises when the strong consensus is that "A" is the reality, that there is no significant evidence for "B" but nevertheless we give "A" and "B" equal treatment (see ]). If the debate we are having now were about the post-2016 "consequences of Brexit" judgements and predictions, you would be correct because the consensus in recent years is that these are and will be economically adverse with no significant contrary expert opinion. But it is not about that (and even if it were, we couldn't include it, per CRYSTAL). Before the referendum, each campaign made its own 'pitch' and we have a duty to record what those pitches were. --] (]) 23:24, 5 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
:::::::::::If you are asserting the predictions now have come true, then cite the come true part and drop the prediction. I havent misread the CRYSTAL policy and quoted it for you above. First you said it applied to editors and not to articles (wrong) and now are you talking about some sort of POVs on both sides and that makes the crystal ok, it doesnt. Policy is more important than a particular article. Please just drop it. If you dont consent, I am just going to run an RFC on the matter and waste everyone's time. ] (]) 03:19, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::::::::::::No, please read what I wrote. What is relevant and should be included is that predictions were made by both campaign groups. That is an historical fact. The subsequent accuracy of those predictions is entirely irrelevant. This is not Misplaced Pages predicting the future, this is reporting the fact that predictions were made by the recognised campaigns. You are misleading yourself by looking at the content of the predictions rather than their existence. --] (]) 15:16, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
*I removed it per ] "Misplaced Pages does not predict the future." If you can find some text that says it has already happened, then it might be ] for ]. Right now this crystal in the lede is a gross policy violation and undue weight. ] (]) 05:30, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |

:<s>And I will now revert that deletion.</s> This is a ] debate. You do not get make a unilateral decision on the conclusion of that debate while it is still in progress. --] (]) 15:16, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
:Although my point about pre-emptive action while a BRD debate is in progress stands, the specific statement you removed was an "after the event" prediction and thus a CRYSTAL violation. I agree with deleting it. So that leaves us with a gap to be filled for the campaign promises. --] (]) 15:24, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |

::] is quite clear and always leans towards removal of content, especially when it is a clear policy issue. You need to find clear consensus to add predictions to the lede of this article and I dont see it. I also see that similar text in the article has ], making it look like the content might have been the source of an earlier ]. Thanks ] (]) 01:21, 7 July 2023 (UTC) |

The fact someone feels this needs to be asserted is troubling. The CJEU never had primacy over British law, and European Union law only had primacy as far as CJEU case law. The jurisdiction clauses in the treaty make this very clear, and supremacy is only a political assertion in a protocol. It really sounds like a childish understanding of the EU. The kind you would read in a British tabloid. I wonder if Misplaced Pages is supposed to be dumbed-down in this way? ] (]) 19:36, 2 March 2024 (UTC) |

== Regions and Cities voting Remain == |

Hi, I tagged ] with an additional cleanup for ] tag. The section now has multiple problems and needs urgent attention. It seems that old info (prior to Brexit) was left in that is both outdated and also were speculations of what might be the impact. We are a wikipedia and cover what has happened in the past. There should be plenty of sources on what has been the impact (not an expert myself) but I am sure there is something. Maybe the section needs to get chopped in half or more if there are not ] of what has actually already impacted, not speculation by thinktanks on what might happen sometime if ever. ] (]) 06:01, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
:In principle yes but it is important to record what the official campaigns declared would happen. We don't have to say (and without RSs definitely should not say) how accurate those predictions turned out to be. Rees Mogg declared of one such that it would take 50 years to see the result. So the weeding will have to be fairly carefully done. As for the rest, ] also applies: indeed it is arguable that we shouldn't even attempt to write such a section before 2066. --] (]) 15:39, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |

::You seem to be more knowledgeable about this subject than me. Pontifications by notable people should be ok to include (normally I use the if they have a wikipedia article to test that). But we dont summarize what these people pontificated about in wikivoice implying that wikipedia is pontificating about the future (we dont do that). Most of the section should cover actual measured effects after the Brexit, as full sections about future guesses is not encyclopedic. ] (]) 01:18, 7 July 2023 (UTC) |

I recently added information regarding polling in the Section "Public opinion since the Brexit referendum", (https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Brexit&oldid=1166454093) which was removed. I believe up to date polling numbers are an important addition to this article, especially considering that the poll in question had a differently worded question than the older poll. |

This section is unavoidably OR because the assertions in it, although cited, are subjectively selected.

::I don't agree that it is undue of itself, it is factual and there is no reason to question the reliability of the source. It is not obvious what "mainstream reporting" could do other than attach an OpEd. |

::What is more of a concern is that the whole section ] is a muddle of two different ideas (a) was the UK right or wrong to leave? and (b) should the UK rejoin?: they need to be separated. (The three graphs in the first section dealt logically with the separate concepts but have not been updated since 2020. Two of those graphs should really have closed in June 2016. with just the right/wrong going forward.) |
