Please be '''extremely careful''' when adding material to articles or talk pages that it does not involve ''']'''. Comments that defame an individual '''may leave you open to being sued''' by them. Your status here, whether as a signed-on user or as an anonymous IP, would not protect you. Someone you defame could get a court order instructing your ] to supply your details to them. They could then sue you for damages. While Section 230 of the ''United States ]'' may protect Misplaced Pages from being sued for defamation, '''it may not protect the person who posted a defamatory claim on a Misplaced Pages page'''. | |||

'''This notice has been left for you because another Misplaced Pages user suspects that, perhaps innocently, you may have defamed someone in your contributions.''' Please recheck ]. Do not make allegations against someone unless you have provided evidence from a reliable publication, and then make sure you describe the allegations in accordance with our content policies, particularly ] and ].

'''If you repeatedly defamed someone, you may be ] from editing Misplaced Pages.''' If you find that you have inadvertently defamed someone in an article, do two things: | |||
#Remove the defamation from the article '''immediately'''. | |||
#Leave a note on the ] saying that you have accidentally included defamatory claims in a named article or articles. (Don't repeat the claims. They will be able to see from your edit removing them what they were.) The claim will then be deleted from the page history. | |||

Once that is done, and the defamation is gone completely from our records, the problem should be resolved. <!-- Template:Defwarn --></div> |
