|
The Day Today
He's also in a edition of The Day Today, in the "Sorted" section.
IT Crowd
Removed the phrase "family friendly"; most episodes are unsuitable for under-12s.
Linehan's quote that the show "contains no strong language or violence" presumably implies that any swearing or violence is mild (e.g. "I've got shit on my face!") rather than strong (i.e. "fuck"). Most of the first series episodes received BBFC 12 certificates (although the DVD had a 15 certificate, presumably down to extras). Mrstonky 04:22, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
Year of birth
Changed it from 1969 to 1968, since this is what he states in his own blog: Why, Thats Delightful! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.39.254.238 (talk) 11:19, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
Atheism
Added category- Irish atheists. Reference- article from Graham Linehan's blog, last line, "I think it’s a bad moment for atheists. We don’t come out of this one smelling good at all." IrishPete (talk) 04:48, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
List of TV/film/stage scripts?
Most of Linehan's written output has been TV/film/stage scripts. As a writer, he is primarily a dramatist. But such work have no heading under his works in the article. Anybody? Martin Rundkvist (talk) 08:28, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
Neutrality of social media section
Editors of the article's social media section have been less than punctilious in adhering to WP:BLP constraints, especially in citing dubious sources. Editors should be alert to potential violations of WP:NPOV here. KalHolmann (talk) 03:16, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Have you got a source for him not being transphobic, because I'd really like to see it - on the other hand, there's this from 2016 https://medium.com/@AlexaEphemera/its-time-to-call-out-graham-linehan-s-ugly-transphobia-30b15be317a5 No-genius (talk) 16:01, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- A blog at Medium by a self-described "LGBTQ+ Rights Activist and Anti-Racist Feminist" is not a WP:RS. It is her singular opinion, nothing more. KalHolmann (talk) 17:52, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Would his own words be an acceptable source, as they are with regards to other topics in the article? https://twitter.com/Glinner/status/1007218228752539648 ChungusConsulting (talk) 02:42, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Can you honestly find no third-party published reliable source reporting that Graham Linehan is a transphobe? KalHolmann (talk) 20:14, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
- Honestly? No. This isn't an issue that has been reported on, so of course: I cannot find a third-party published reliable source reporting that Graham Linehan is a transphobe. I can only show you him calling gender reassignment surgery 'mutilation' which I confidently believe to be transphobia whichever way you cut it.
