[edit] Semi-Protection of The
Hi TehPhil, thanks for your contributions. You recently attempted to Semiprotect the article The. So you know only admins can protect or semi-protect pages. The proper thing to do in that situation is to remove the vandalism and if semiprotection is necessary, report it to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. Keep editing and be bold.--Joe Jklin (T C) 20:17, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Connor McCreaddie Article
At the very least, don't add content to Wikipedia about a living person that could affect their real-world reputation without a proper source to back it up. Leebo86 21:24, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
- I added the the article you mentioned as a source. That's all you have to do. The policies associated with biographies of living persons are quite strict about presenting sources for information in biographies. Regardless, you shouldn't add any information to Wikipedia without a source to prove that it's verifiable. Just keep it in mind in the future. It may have been misunderstood as an attack because the article did not make it clear that this had been covered in the news (thus satisfying notability guidelines). It looked like an article about an obese 8 year old. Leebo86 16:41, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
