| This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.If you are a subject of this article, or acting on behalf of one, and you need help, please see this help page. |
MrWhich's shenanigans
Dude, do you live on this page? I'd appreciate it if you quit vandalizing the edits made to this page. Just because YOUR personal POV clashes with the information on here, doesn't give you right to erase everything. I'd like you to cite YOUR sources that you used to prove it was not factual information.
- You added vile, disgustingly POV edits to an article on a living person. I'd encourage you to read the policy on biographies of living persons before attempting to reinsert your POV edits. Mr Which??? 04:03, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- How do you know I'm not Mr. Williams myself? Do you know him personally? Do you even live CLOSE to the DFW area?
- Doesn't matter if you're god himself, and you know everything about Greggo. All that matters is whether the information as you provided it complies with WP policy on verifiability and biographies of living persons. Mr Which??? 05:06, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- How do you know I'm not Mr. Williams myself? Do you know him personally? Do you even live CLOSE to the DFW area?
Appropriate sources for WP:BLP
Some of the sources being used here probably don't qualify as WP:RS since they're being used for negative information on a WP:BLP. I've posted this for comment at Misplaced Pages:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard#Dallas_Observer_blog_on_BLP. AliveFreeHappy (talk) 05:06, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- As a former resident of Dallas, the DO's blog is the definitive source on what is going on at The Ticket. They have inside sources that no one else does. Mr Which??? 05:12, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- They may have sources no one else does, but that doesn't mean they fit WP:VER, WP:RS, and especially WP:BLP. My concern is how do we know that they're a reliable source? AliveFreeHappy (talk) 06:44, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
