[edit] Sunday Times Rich List

User:82.123.58.100 recently deleted the paragraph about the estimate of net worth in the 2005 Sunday Times Rich List on the basis that it was inaccurate. This is probably a good call, in that no doubt the estimates in the Sunday Times Rich List contain all sorts of errors. For example in this case, they may be including net worth of Hilary Weston's husband's family, or some other assests that are held in trust or are otherwise inaccessible.

However, I've restored the paragraph on the basis that it is, at least, a published source. That is to say, even if the amount quoted is wrong in practice, it is not wrong to say that this is the net worth the Sunday Times reported in 2005. It would probably be best to keep the paragraph, but add a sentence to explain where the Sunday Times most likely went wrong in there estimation. -- Solipsist#
