I don't want to appear to be pushing a POV here, but does anybody else think that the throwing of objects at sporting events doesn't fall under "heckling" (which is commonly just verbal) and should instead be under "hooliganism" (or some other article)?

The discussion of stage-management and Tony Blair seems potentially NPOV. Firstly it suggests that the incidents with Tony Blair were stage-managed (is there any proof of this?), and it uses Tony Blair as the only contemporary example (lack of balance?). Any thoughts on this? Cheers TigerShark 12:07, 2 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with the above person, in that it in fact does the opposite and makes the hecklers look derogatory. The sad fact is that most 'public' audiences are managed.
This word isn't standard English. I would change it but I don't know what it means! Tex 01:33, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Its a contraction of obstreperous, which I see someone has added in brackets. Now, as long as people know what obstreperous is... -Dhodges 02:42, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone agree that a mention of heckling between government and opposition in parliaments and legislatures should be made, possibly under the "Politics" heading? Also, I understand heckling is practiced in certain formats in debate competitions,

The German word『häkeln, haekeln』meaning crochet must be connected --Stephanie Do (talk) 08:38, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This is just a heads-up for anyone who has this page on their watchlist. If the same old unsourced paragraph about "Heckling in Switzerland" is being re-inserted again (and again, and again), please feel free to get rid of it right away. This nonsense has been foisted back onto the article by various IP addresses and users, starting with Gordonbell (who did most of his own editing on an article titled Gordon Bell (slow "wow" at this point). He used to be based in Zürich but has now moved to the greener pastures of Moscow, which is why I am expecting an equally pesky and just as pertinent paragraph on "Heckling and political defenestration in Russia" to start popping up before long. Now I do in fact teach children who are both younger and more mature than Gordon's obsession with this paragraph, but to each their own. The only irksome aspect is that a slew of editors have had to keep cleaning this same tripe up for the best part of 13 years (!), and while we all do grow older and more cynical, and will eventually start dying off to leave our task to our children, someone's fresh-faced love for that one paragraph seems to know not the vagaries of that old arbiter, time. (Paragraph is still major bilge, though.) Trigaranus (talk) 11:17, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
