Really poor revert. Never mind the close paraphrasing issues, why the hurry to add an unsourced chunk of fluff to an article which has survived without it for years? --] <sup>]</sup> 23:12, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
:Several editors have suggested that the IP editor appears to be Mr. Randi himself, or perhaps someone working closely with him. Given that there appears to be no dispute as to the ''accuracy'' of the edits, I perceive little downside in leaving them in place for a short time while the editor is being asked to check in on his talkpage. In these circumstances, and consistent with the views of others expressed at ANI, the upside of treating a BLP editor with courtesy in the event that it turns out to be the article subject, outweighs the downside of allowing the edits to remain for a day or two if it turns out it is not. ] (]) 23:18, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
::Okay, so it'd be okay for a mayor of a city to add the unsourced details of the twenty-odd awards he's been given to his biography? --] <sup>]</sup> 23:27, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
:::That would be, among other things, politically unwise for him or her to do, given the sometime practical consequences of politicians' being reported as editing their own articles. But if it happened, it would make sense, not to instantly revert every word of what was added, but to assess the additions on their merits, including but not limited to issues of verifiability and undue weight. ] (]) 00:15, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
::::IPOF, almost all of the "fluff" was verifiable quite readily - I find the instant removal of material which is not only citable but trivially citable to be problematic, as I find little of it (other than some fluff) to be remotely in a contentious category. Importance of any material to the BLP is, of course, debatable, but reverting what are primarily "statements of fact" ''as a copyvio'' is pushing the limits. Were this opinion material, the position is reversed. Again - IMHO. ] (]) 13:06, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

as long as Ms White is bringing up two year old conversations, let me remind you of some other 'casual kibitzing' from that 'informal jokey' forum:

i doubt Ms White is honestly bothered by my ill-advised remarks to her on IRC, made two years ago, but if so, she has my warmest apologies, and she is welcome to compare my remarks to remarks made by her friend, seen above, and on his Encyclopedia Dramatica article.

if you oversight this, you may as well sweep (scroll way down) under the rug too. i have left the Wikipedians alone lately, aside from IRC log dumping and updating ED articles on them, and I would like to request that you afford me the same courtesy kthx. i am composing my departure note to a WPO moderator right now, so that Ms White will not feel threatened by my typed words. ] (]) 10:45, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
