The T & A an academic journal??
I see that an academic journal template has been added above. I would like to question this. What is the evidence for formal, peer-reviewed, academic material in the T & A, which is a local newspaper for the general public? --Storye book (talk) 14:01, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * My guess the bot tagged it because the article is incorrectly using template Infobox Journal rather than Infobox newspaper. Keith D (talk) 17:31, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Eeep. I did the infobox.  Not sure what to do now. Will try to put it right but may fail.  Thanks. --Storye book (talk) 18:42, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Update. Thanks Keith D.  I have replaced the infobox and deleted the academic journal template. The infobox could now probably do with further information. I don't live in Bradford, so does anyone know if T & A is a tabloid? --Storye book (talk) 19:00, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The article says it is a tabloid having started out as a broadsheet. Keith D (talk) 21:46, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Oops! Thank you.

Old T & A building
I took the photograph of what I understand to be the old T & A building, in response to local elderly people who were there when T & A was in the building. They gave separate and independent information to me about this. I do not live in Bradford and have never spoken to the newspaper staff.

If you have online evidence of the T & A not ever using that building and of T & A using a different building, please give us a link to that evidence, and please identify the previous T & A building. Thank you.--Storye book (talk) 06:59, 28 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Update: I have now asked T & A editorial staff on the phone about their previous building(s), and they gave the information which I've added under the History subheading. They plan to add a history page to their website, which will hopefully clear up any misunderstandings. Thank you for your patience in this matter. --Storye book (talk) 12:19, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Unreferenced section added 'History'
A section was added using unverified anecdotal accounts as a reference. This is unacceptable (I am uncertain if it ever was acceptable, even back in 2011). Shown in this change by. It's been allowed to endure since then, with expansions, hence I have tagged it accordingly.--86.29.222.228 (talk) 13:33, 12 December 2018 (UTC)


 * The "unverified anecdotal accounts" from the newspaper staff only apply to the single change I made in 2011, which supplied some rather dry and worthy information about company history, unlikely to offend or mislead anybody. I did ask the staff at the time to put a basic and simple history of the newspaper on their website or in the newspaper so that I could cite it, but sadly they did not do so as far as I am aware (I should add that I have no affiliation with the newspaper or staff).


 * However the later expansions to the history section are nothing to do with me - and as far as I know are nothing to do with official staff communications - so please delete such antagonistic additions as "sold off piecemeal" and "about one tenth of that figure" which I agree should not remain if not supported by citations. During the long tenure of a previous editor of the newspaper, this article did receive quite a number of antagonistic and uncited edits by a disaffected person or persons, and we cleared them out asap - but I had not noticed those two elements. So please edit the history section as you see fit. Storye book (talk) 17:08, 12 December 2018 (UTC)


 * It appears that we now have an unregistered editor who may have a conflict of interest here - they appear to be a paid editor, or similar, and some of their edits look like promotion and some bits look like plagiarism, and have no citations. I have reverted some of it. Storye book (talk) 22:41, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
