[edit] reliable sourcing

I have reverted the claim that this person is a pedophile until I can get feedback that TheSun.co.uk is a reliable source. Isn't this mag along the lines of US supermarket tabloids? If the source is acceptable it can be put back in. ==killing sparrows 18:37, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

No, it's a reliable source. Anyway, the claim isn't disputed in anyway, Ivan admitted to his attraction to young girls. --Moffollo 19:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Per our Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons policy, we cannot use a tabloid source for a claim this controversial. I've removed it. — coelacan — 00:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Moffollo, I still feel that this extraordinary claim needs extraordinary sources to back it up. I have asked a third party to take a look at the article. Would you object to removing the claim and reference until this can be resolved? --killing sparrows 23:50, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
