Edits to Paul H. Carr (physicist)

You have removed cited information from this article three times now. Please do not remove information which is properly cited, whether it is "right" or "wrong". If you have citations that state otherwise, let's examine them, but simply removing the information is not the way articles are improved. Biographical articles typically include date and place of birth when the information is available. It looks like you may not wish to have it published, as this article is about you, but that's not how things work. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks!

I think if he doesn't want his exact birth date and city included in the article, that's fine. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 23:15, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Peregrine Fisher here. While Frank was acting in good faith, I do believe he made an error in judgement here since as things stand, I don't believe the information should be included in accordance with our Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons policy. I hope this incident hasn't caused you any undue stress. From your comments, I presume you already have some familiarity with our policy Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons, you may want to reread the section Dealing with articles about yourself and Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons/Help if you are ever unsure about what to do. While Frank acted appropriately in bringing this matter to Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard, in future if you find yourself in dispute with any editor of your biography (or any other information concerning living persons on wikipedia) you are welcome to bring the matter there for additional eyes if necessary. As also mentioned on our policy, you are always welcome to contact wikipedia via email or some other means if you prefer. Cheers Nil Einne (talk) 14:22, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
