Page you were editing: John Snow (public house) (filter log) (user filter log)
Description: The original author of the page cited a book on "british fiction" when referring to a homophobic incident at the pub in question. I removed two irrelevant citations and added relevant citations from legitimate news sources talking about the original incident and the protest aftermath. This is a constructive edit. I am assuming that the previous author did not intentionally imply that a reported news story was "fiction", but this does not look good either way. This edit needs to be allowed.
