"mocked"[edit]

RE this edit, I feel using "mocked" here to describe the reaction to her statement is unnecessarily negative and possibly unbalanced (after all, she had her supporters for her statement). As for the Rossshire Journal reference, I removed it to prevent cite overkill, though I've nae studied it to any great extent and it may have some use elsewhere CiphriusKane (talk) 02:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

CiphriusKane Yet you leave in the line "She was celebrated by republican organisation Our Republic for taking her solemn affirmation under protest." (My emphasis) Kalamikid (talk) 09:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Kalamikid: I'd actually remove that as well for being regular dross, but I'd like to deal with one issue at a time CiphriusKane (talk) 09:13, 27 May 2021 (UTC) EDIT: I've removed it as Our Republic are a new organisation from what I can see CiphriusKane (talk) 11:26, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just going to add that was actually the second time Kalamikid used the term "mocked" in reference to the tweet 1 CiphriusKane (talk) 11:26, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I used the same phrase I used the first time, just with three references this time to show that she was mocked. I'm not going to loose any sleep over it. Thank you for removing the other 'claim' Kalamikid (talk) 07:31, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
And that shows ye fail to understand the issue. A rival MSP on Twitter and a bunch of Twitter trolls hardly justifies the wording, especially when written in such a way that implies the mockery was universal and ignores the support. It pushes an overly negative and biased tone CiphriusKane (talk) 09:32, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
