In fact the information is spread on several articles. It seems that no
English court has attempted to enforce contempt of court on foreign
publications (though one Judge seems keen to try it with defamation
actions). Would the article talk pages benefit from a reminder that the law
on whether British editors are subject to the injunction is as yet untested,
or would this just draw attention?
