The new version of the Alexander Adamescu page addresses all of the criticisms made of the previous one.

The detail contained in the previous version has been substantially reduced for enhanced brevity and the language used much more neutral throughout than before.

The sections on Alexander Adamescu's father have been removed, although the father's case is directly relevant as Alexander Adamescu is facing the exact same charges of bribery that were levelled at his father as part of the same criminal act.

Opinions which are controversial or editorial in nature are all clearly in quotations, with their attribution marked. They are not set out as established facts.

The majority of sources are either from highly respected 'broadsheet' newspapers, such as The Times, The Telegraph and The Guardian, other established online news outlets or from highly regarded think tanks/public policy institutions.

Alexander Adamescu's notability is addressed in the summary section, as his case is one of a number of high profile European Arrest Warrant challenges in the UK, each of which has received a lot of media coverage in the United Kingdom. Alexander Adamescu's case has received a great deal of coverage, with articles written on his case and issues surrounding it appearing in outlets in the UK, Europe and the United States including The Times, The Telegraph, The Guardian, The Spectator, The New Statesman, Forbes, The Hill, Reaction, ConservativeHome, and CapX amongst several others.

The section on political impact on the debate around the European Arrest Warrant has been removed, despite Andrew Symeou, another high profile EAW case, having a Wikipedia page which discusses this very issue.

Alexander Adamescu's notability is also high due to his connection his father, Dan Adamescu, who was also high profile. The connection is both as heir to the family's businesses and related to Dan Adamescu's death which sparked controversy both in the press in Romania and the United Kingdom.

For further balance, I believe the page would benefit from an official statement on Alexander Adamescu's arrest warrant from Romania's National Anticorruption Directorate or an official government spokesperson. It would also benefit from the inclusion of more critical editorials if any can be found online. I do not believe this omission warrants the page's deletion though.
