[edit] Removing libelous information

I am strongly backing my removal of the information that I believe is libelous from this article. Scotch none of it has sources and other editors have labelled it with the NPOV tag. The WP:LIVING guideline says that this information MUST be removed. MyNameIsNotBob 22:41, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Which content were you referring to? Scullser1981 03:23, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

- Hi MyNameIsNotBob, I strongly support your edit (except that the person's name was reverted to 'Stupid Kyle Sandilands', but that was a minor issue). This page has clearly become a target for vandalism and NPOV edits. I have tried to neutralise POV and have reinstated a 'controversy' section with the difference being NPOV references added to all 'controversies'. I encourage you to cast your watchful eye over the edit and give feedback. --Jirrupin 00:25, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Black Devil" comment

Is this latest edit [1] really necessary? Mark Holden is not 'black' in an ethnic sense - Kyle was only referring to the fact that Mark was wearing all black clothing. It was a rather tame thing to say in my opinion and is not notable enough to deem mention in an encyclopaedia. The edit itself admits that there has been no fallout from it - I'd suggest waiting to see if there is (which I doubt there will be) before putting a mention of that in this article.

[edit] POV

I'm not a fan of Kyle or anything really. I mean, I don't hate him, but I'm more of a Ian Dickson person myself as far as the aus idol judges go. But both this article and the Kyle and Jackie O show article really just seem to be a big list of things people hate about him/them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.78.84.7 (talk) 10:21, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

NPOV doesn't mean the guy isn't widely hated. It all looks pretty well sourced. If you find a source that says he isn't actually the worlds biggest tosser, by all mean add the information. Ryan Albrey (talk) 05:08, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

When someone puts themselves out there as an alleged 'shock jock' then that's all that can be said about them. The guy has carefully constructed this image, it's not just people's points of view. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.179.64.177 (talk) 21:17, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re-Written

This page is shocking, I am going to do some research and re-write this page starting from today. All changes will be listed here under this heading. Please discuss and comment if you wish to participate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.233.72.39 (talk) 07:52, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

That's great, and it may require protection considering how much vandalism it's received. However I too saw the Enough Rope interview and Kyle was angered by Denton's questions, so removing the hostile state sentence and cite doesn't seem fair. This should be the first thing to seek consensus on. MartinSFSA (talk) 09:14, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
