Talk:Actor Alan Cumming returns OBE for British Empire's 'toxicity'

Review of revision 4705997 [Passed]

Revision 4705997 of this article has been reviewed by SVTCobra (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 03:58, 30 January 2023 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Another good article. I feel it went a little out of its way to focus on LGBT issues as opposed to the what Cumming was really returning his award for, which was mainly related to colonization and the way the British Empire did it. Perhaps the history of the British Empire and its misdeeds would have been more important than the relatively minor achievements of Cumming. Nevertheless, for what I would call medium-sized article, it was easy to review. Thanks.

Spelling of the bill's name

While the author can of course use their personal preferences for spelling, to me it seems a proper noun's spelling should not be altered simply because it is inconsistent with the rest of the article. Thus, the Defense of Marriage Act should use the "s" spelling in its actual name, right? Heavy Water (talk) 04:58, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

I understand the reasoning now. While I wouldn't have done that myself, I think it is fine. Heavy Water (talk) 05:04, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

It's one letter. We can always do it without breaking the archive. Cheers, SVTCobra 05:15, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

I believe I intended to quote Cumming directly, but removed the quote and forgot to make it 'defense'. I'll change it now. JJLiu112 (talk) 16:45, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

I note, however, that Sky, BBC, The Guardian all spelt it 'Defence'. JJLiu112 (talk) 16:45, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
