Right to stop accepting wrong? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dexter

'right' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'stop accepting wrong?' is the wordplay.
'stop' becomes 'deter' (I've seen this before).
'accepting' indicates putting letters inside.
'wrong?' becomes 'x'.
'deter' going around 'x' is 'DEXTER'.

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for dexter that I've seen before include "Breed of cattle; right" , "televised antihero, > right?" , "Colin --, detective writer" , "On the right-hand side in heraldry" , "Crime author" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
