This page is in danger of becoming a coatrack article[edit]
Please read WP:COATRACK and be advised that every minute detail of a current controversies about how one play by this subject should not be allowed to take over this article, and all irrelevant content should be removed. It seems apparent that some of these edits are POV-pushing, and all content here must be written in neutral, encyclopaedic tones. Any editors with involvement with this person or their plays should declare their Conflict of Interest according to that policy. Thank you. Nick Moyes (talk) 00:30, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed it. And just to let you know, I don't have a connection with the play, I am just a big fan of it. Ylevental (talk) 14:54, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ylevental there are similar issues with Southwark Playhouse that need to be addressed. May I remind you that Oates' current play is having a performance run until 9 March 2019 and any non-neutral edits may have an effect on box office receipts. Chricon79 (talk) 18:47, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Chricon79: You are correct. Why don't you try making those changes yourself the way you think is best and I will take a good look at them? Ylevental (talk) 18:54, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
