[edit] BLP concerns

Dealing with edits by the subject of the article and including unsourced biographical statements on living persons
Although the the vandalism of the page yesterday was uncalled for and it is impossible to tell if the vandal was indeed Michael A. Moon, it is clear that there are biographical facts that are unsourced. Wikipedia guidelines also clearly state that any biographical information on living persons that does not have a reliable source should be removed immediately. Therefore, I will give the person who regularly edits this page 48 hours to remove it or find reliable sources for this information, or I will remove it in accordance with Wikipedia guidelines.

The material concerned is this:

"Born near Plymouth, England"
"A 1995 graduate of Laurentian University with a double-major in Philosophy and Political Science, Moon finished Queen's University law program three years later and is now based in Brampton, Ontario."

Those statements are both from Moon's own biography which was hosted on his now-defunct website - I'll try to see if I can find a google cache this week. Sherurcij ^{(Speaker for the Dead)} 00:43, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Very well. I shall still remove any "facts" that are not cited in 48 hours in accordance with policy. Nimabine (talk) 00:58, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
