== Addition of libel cases ==

Libel or defamation cases in Australia against journalists are common and involve untested allegations in a statement of claim lodged by the subject of a story. These claims can have merit or no merit and are tested at trial but if a matter is settled confidentially prior to trial, they are not tested. Care should be taken in sourcing materiel in respect of allegations made in libel actions. The additions that have been removed from this page relate to libel cases and statement of claims. Libel actions are common in Australia against journalists- it’s known as the defamation capital of the world. ] (]) 21:31, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Repeated breaches of BLP.

SPOV user intent on adding adverse material in breach of NPOV. Can administrator monitor or lock page. Qldsydmel (talk) 03:31, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

We certainly do not want the page locked. It is on several watchlists, and POV material can be quickly reverted. WWGB (talk) 03:41, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Thanks- that makes sense. Qldsydmel (talk) 04:04, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
