I've removed this claim from the article, as it was unsourced:

There is a rumour that he had 'stolen' material from his contemporaries, like for example the majority of an entire play, which he apparently then passed off as his own.

[edit] Supposed spat with Jon Ronson

The journalist Jon Ronson has also criticised Marber in print, saying he disliked him as a person after a disagreement over their nanny.

Anyone who reads the article in question will see immediately that the tone is highly facetious and tongue-in-cheek and there is no way of knowing how much genuine animosity, if any, exists betwen the two figues — as if it mattered much anyway, since this is not Hello magazine. This is not encyclopaedic material. Please do not keep inserting it. Flapdragon 02:18, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
