On the entry for Mark and Monique Rathburn under "Cases":

"As of January 2016, the court has denied a Church motion to have the case dismissed under anti-SLAPP law,[74] but the ruling Miscavage must testify in the case was overturned on appeal."

Miscavige is misspelled and the sentence structure is confusing. It should be corrected to:

"As of January 2016, the court has denied a Church motion to have the case dismissed under anti-SLAPP law,[74] but the ruling that Miscavige must testify in the case was overturned on appeal." 2601:280:CB01:3BB7:C88:5F2F:C83B:6B73 (talk) 20:05, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Request: "conventiently" needs to be fixed[edit]

but I can't do it myself. 14.201.77.210 (talk) 02:28, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thanks for the heads-up. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 02:39, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Categorization by time[edit]

@Grorp I see you undid my revision where I categorized this page in Category:1950s establishments in the United States. I do understand why and I won't contest the decision, but I still think it would be good to put this page in a category based on the time that the practice was first started. What do you think about putting this in Category:1950s introductions? Doomhope (talk) 16:13, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Doomhope: I've done some searching, and I'm pretty sure all the Fair Game policies were published in 1965 (March through December), so maybe use Category:1960s introductions instead, or maybe even Category:1965 introductions. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 01:00, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
