Editing an article about yourself

There seems to be some indication that you are in fact Matt Sanchez. If so, please review and follow Misplaced Pages's policies on editing one's own biography and on conflict of interest. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 16:38, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

The two problematical items you mentioned on my talk page aren't in the article anymore, so hopefully they are no longer an issue. As you know, it's pretty much impossible to keep inaccuracies out of an article; the best that can be hoped for is that they are promptly removed. (In that regard, I just removed a category, in the article, related to one of the two items you mentioned.)
In general, negative information about a person if it lacks a reliable source can be removed "on sight", per WP:BLP. If you do need to remove such information in the future, and run into any resistance, please feel free to drop me a note; I'll be happy to help on that or anything else I can.
As far as anything else, please note that I'm just another editor here. I do hope you find the policies above to reasonable. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 19:18, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Just want to add to what John Broughton said--I'm really trying to work on getting this article NPOV, and the insertion of unrelated images and unsourced anecdotes are just making it harder (not to mention probably inviting more anonymous attack edits). I happen to think there is no need for this article at all; that it was tossed up as a blogosphere-directed hit, but as long as it's here I want to make it as fair as is possible. FYI, John Broughton is extremely fair and isn't part of the groups inserting weasel words and libelous statements. Seriously, take his advice.  :) --Beth C. 20:59, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Matt, first I think words such as 'escorts' are giving you the benefit of the doubt to begin with: maybe nothing more than a full-body massage happens in exchange for $300/hour. However, I find it strange that in articles you allegedly wrote and said "I'm not denying it" and "it happened over ten years ago" that you would turn around and now deny it completely, conveneniently as a "don't ask, don't tell" military investigation has opened up. For someone who has courted controversy, this about-face when the wind changes direction is quite stunning.→ R Young {łtalk} 05:20, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Violations of policy

Please stop adding information to the article Matt Sanchez.

Per Misplaced Pages:Autobiography, It is difficult to write neutrally about yourself. Therefore, it is considered proper on Misplaced Pages to let others do the writing. Instead, contribute material or make suggestions on the article's talk page and let independent editors write it into the article itself.

In particular, unreferenced (and quite possibly unverifiable) statements such as these, which you added, are inappropriate:

  • An autodidact, Sanchez has been able to both acquire several languages and pen articles in those languages
  • Lovingly referred to as Refer Mechs, Marines claim the jack of all trades combat engineers have the most important job in the Corps: Keeping the beer
  • Matt Sanchez was known for being especially muscular. His fellow Marines asked him to move a refrigeration unit without a crane. Rumor has it, that he did just that. There are also reports that his arms (19") did not fit well into his Marine camies and that the sleeves needed to be tailored to accommodate his girth.

Please let other editors evaluate what is appropriate to add to your article: It is impossible for you to have a neutral point of view. And please not the per WP:NOT, Misplaced Pages is not an indiscriminate collector of facts; we don't put everything that is known about a person into that person's biography.

If you continue to add information to your own, article, you may be blocked for violating Misplaced Pages policy. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 21:11, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

There's no neutrality here. The bloggers are breaking their own rules. I added a different interview with Kevin McCullough.

Name-Calling

Jihadist because people have issued a fatwa because gay men, like yourself, who have a personal bias against me because you feel threatened by someone who doesn't agree with you.

My face is everywhere online. 00:35, 28 March 2007 (UTC)Matt Sanchez


Matt,

Why do you insist on calling everyone a name ('jihadists,' 'these fags') that you don't agree with? First, I wouldn't be surprised if you were 'straight' but that would make you 'gay-for-pay' which means you performed gay acts for money...i.e. 'prostitution.' You said yourself that 'pornography is prostitution' which by YOUR definition makes you a (fill in the blank).

Notably, you call people 'faceless cowards' when in fact their faces appear online. Hmmm. You complain of bias but you break every rule to push an agenda which is itself biased, contorted, distorted, and totally unsupportable. I think you must be enjoying the attention. If so, keep it up.→ R Young {łtalk} 04:29, 27 March 2007 (UTC)


LGBT and some of the other homo bloggers have been extremely biased. I'm sure you've noticed their bias. Bluemarine 23:56, 26 March 2007 (UTC)Matt Sanchez Matthew.a.sanchez@gmail.com
