Have you forgotten?

You're topic banned from Gamergate indefinitely m8. You shouldn't be editing the article. Bosstopher (talk) 01:14, 6 July 2015 (UTC)


Smash!

You've been squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something really silly.

Arbitration enforcement

You are in violation of sanctions imposed on you in March to avoid all gamergate related pages broadly construed. I will be opening an arbitration enforcement request against you. Thorrand (talk) 02:15, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

BLP requires you to cite reliable sources for claims about living people

It does not seem to me that anyone has done a good job of trying to explain this to you, but the policy on biographies of living persons applies to all pages on Misplaced Pages. That means if you are making a claim about an identifiable living person, even if only on the talk page of an article or another user's talk page, then you should have a reliable source to back up the claim. Preferably, you should either cite the source when making the claim or be referring to sourced information already within an article. Claims made about living people that are not backed by a reliable source may be removed, even if those claims are made on a talk page and admins are allowed to block or sanction you for such claims. Such a policy exists to ensure that Misplaced Pages does not host or spread information that is defamatory or invasive of a living person's privacy.

At any time should you feel like raising a question relating to a living person, be sure to see if there are reliable sources already covering the issue and cite them when raising the issue. ensure that any claims you make are explicitly backed by the source as well rather than inferences. Be careful about sources too since claims about living people have much stricter sourcing requirements. The rules may seem a little restrictive, but they exist to protect people from defamation or invasion of privacy. Feel free to ask me for further details about the policy if you have trouble understanding, but please avoid saying anything that could be taken as a reference to a specific claim you have made or question you raised regarding a living individual.--The Devil's Advocate tlk. cntrb. 03:37, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
