A man who is only in the public eye for running two websites; one which displays people's personal details so thugs can (and do) attack them; and the other which is basically a particularly crude extended diatribe against Jews, women, immigrants etc....
My point is; why is he known as "Simon Sheppard (psychologist)"? Is there any proof of his psychological credentials? They are not listed. I suggest they are listed and given reference; or this page be given the less misleading title of "Simon Sheppard (far-right activist)"....— Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.110.31.35 (talk) 23:36, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
Is there anything in this article or can be added to the article that would help indicate whether the category 'Holocaust denial' or 'Holocaust denier' is appropriate. Hmains 23:55, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Calling Redwatch a "hate site" after the article has already outlined exactly what the site is all about seems suspiciously like somebody's own point of view.
There are some definite POV or subjectivity standards issues with this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.11.97.146 (talk) 06:38, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
According to Indymedia website
https://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/sheffield/2008/07/403668.html?c=on#c199865
Return to Christendom, who has edited this article is in fact Simon Sheppard himself, so one might expect some POV. Exactly what Redwatch is can be gauged from reading the article. "Hate site" is pretty uncontroversial.--Streona (talk) 15:39, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
The editor who anonymously started this section is either ignorant of "Redwatch" or else deliberately pushing a biased point of view. "Redwatch" is quite unambiguously a hate site. JamesBWatson (talk) 07:07, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

There are a few other Simon Sheppards who may be confused with this one

I cant find anything that links this Simon with the one at Sirius software (there are no links between the various websites) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paraphrased (talk • contribs) 20:50, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
I used to work with Simon Sheppard in the 1980's and I can confirm that he and the Sirius software 'SS' (how apt) are one and the same. He was very clever and intense and may well have been borderline Asperger's. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leytonstoner (talk • contribs) 13:17, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
BBC News (online and Yorkshire teletext) reported on 16 June 2009 that Sheppard and his colleaague were due to return to UK on 17 June and would be taken to court. This is confirmed by a Yorkshire Post report the same day (Race hate pair set to be deported). I've added this information to the intro, but have not been able to find from the BBC or regional press any confirmation that they did in fact return. Anyone else got details?

The result of the move request was this will never get consensus. —harej (talk) (cool!) 20:09, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Simon Sheppard (far-right activist) → Simon Sheppard (racist) — Since he is now convicted for racist hate crimes, let's not beat about the bush. Bigot would be equally accurate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.176.82.42 (talk) 18:38, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't the result have been move to Simon Sheppard (activist)? Aubergine (talk) 20:11, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
The result of the move request was already moved back to Simon Sheppard (activist). No need to jump back through the bureaucratic hoops. Aervanath (talk) 19:03, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Simon Sheppard (far-right activist) → Simon Sheppard (activist) — I meant to state that the moving of the article to "Simon Sheppard (racist)" will never gain consensus. However, (activist) seems to have support. I would just like to confirm it. (This does not need to run a full 7 days). —harej (talk) (cool!) 20:37, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
((editprotected)) Please move this page back as per the discussion above. I don't even think a discussion is necessary. The page was protected after being moved by a vandal. -shirulashem(talk) 21:04, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
This article has been extensively rewritten in order to improve its accuracy, detail and quality. In the lead it is notable that I have changed it to "his far right views" instead of "the views of the far right". This is because many on the far right find Sheppard's worldview too extreme even for them.--Tablemount (talk) 15:04, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
We know that Sheppard runs the Heretical site and Redwatch, but he does have other websites. Anyone know the full list or whether they could be added to the article? He has a site, http://fatherfeeney.org, about Leonard Feeney. Look up the WHOIS information for that domain if you don't believe me.--81.155.250.99 (talk) 13:15, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Info here.--Jackdaw and Wool (talk) 01:29, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
In Sheppard's book, The Tyranny of Ambiguity, he confesseses to being a paedophile who tries to lure girls as young as 11 back to his flat for sex. Is there a way to note this in the article?--X sprainpraxisL (talk) 23:02, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
There is. It's the way that any claim in Wikipedia is referenced: author, title, page, date, publisher. Emeraude (talk) 11:08, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
