Talk:Rahsaan Patterson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Editing of this page/Vandalism
Continued removal of the references to Patterson as a homosexual or his romantic relationship with singer Tevin Campbell will be considered acts of vandalism and those making such edits will be issued a warning. Whatever your issue with this fact is, it is nonetheless a relevant fact, and it's removal is inappropriate. Pacian 03:40, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
When you say "lover", do you mean this lover or that lover"? --b. Touch 20:40, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- They are gay lovers. I am changing the wording to be accurate. Pacian 20:44, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
There does need to be a citation of fact for this page. It is clear this request is referring to the fact that Patterson is the lover of Campbell and is gay. This is common knowledge, and common knowledge does not to be cited. I don't see you asking for a citation RE: the sexuality of Ellen Degeneres, or about her history with Anne Heche. Why? Because that's common knowledge, as is this. Pacian 16:53, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- You also don't request a citation for the same fact as stated on the Tevin Campbell page. Campbell was outed when he was arrested for soliciting a police officer 1. Pacian 16:57, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
While it is true that Tevin Campbell was outed, it is not true that he and Rahsaan are lovers. I personally know Rahsaan and though I suspect that he MAY BE secretly gay, he is not at all involved with Tevin Canpbell. They are not even friends in the least bit. Rahsaan has been dating singer Trina Broussard for many years.
Ellen Degeneres' history with Anne Heche is verifiable. They talked about it openly and often, as well did the media. Not one remotely reputable sources has ever said that Tevin and Rahsaan were even friends.
Where is the source that Patterson is gay, as well as that Tevin Campbell allegedly coming out with the relationship? Without the source, you're opening yourself up to libel, Pacian.
Rashaan has a flick out. It came out September 5th.
