Hi Carbon Caryatid! I've sourced his honorary doctorate from Birmingham Uni and put that back in. I can't find anything to substantiate the other claim and he doesn't mention anything in his book, so I've left that out for now. Thank you for tidying up after me btw :) - I think I need new glasses. --DSQ (talk) 21:13, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you too! I like to work on the bios of interesting characters, alive or dead. I wish I had his book. And yes, too much editing is causing me to question my eyesight too. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 10:48, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Removal of Princess Diana stalker prosecution[edit]
Other than the NYT article cited, I can't find any other source which claim the guy was prosecuted by Mr Afzal for stalking Princess Diana. He was arrested and cautioned but never charged. [1] Mr Afzal was involved in prosecuting him for breach of the peace/obstructing Police, but the charges were dropped. [2] So I've removed it. :) --DSQ (talk) 00:44, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe I was being a bit gung ho there! I don't think the info is strictly accurate, but who am I to question the NYT? I don't object to you putting it back in at all. I'll try to be less gung ho in future. :) --DSQ (talk) 11:33, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
