Foulkes[edit]

It says "Baron Foulkes claimed £54,527 in expenses in 2008 in addition to his salary." This needs a citation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.23.84.202 (talk) 17:38, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Undid apparent anonymous vandalism, and added [citation needed] to the additions according to the policy on biographies of living persons - the content doesn't seem to be harmful to Carrie Gracie. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LawsOfRobotics (talk • contribs) 18:26, 19 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fake News[edit]

She lied to the audiences, translated Chinese into the opposite meaning. See comment by Tony Montana and the following replies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhb8tfu7m1c&t=705s — Preceding unsigned comment added by Superarts-org (talk • contribs) 18:53, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Carrie Gracie[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Carrie Gracie's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "BBC News":

From Beijing: Picture Power:Tiananmen Standoff BBC News.
From Bahrain: Law, Bill (6 April 2011). "Police Brutality Turns Bahrain Into 'Island of Fear'". Crossing Continents (via BBC News). Retrieved 15 April 2011.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 02:26, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox[edit]

The reference given for spouse and divorced does not give spouse's name or confirm divorce.

https://www.theguardian.com/global/2019/sep/02/carrie-gracie-i-learned-about-equal-pay-the-hard-way#maincontent does confirm name of spouse & that marriage floundered but does not confirm divorce.
