Mediation Cabal Case
Hello. I am the mediator who has responded to the request for mediation by User:Toure. I think that this situation is getting close to an edit war, but I hope that I can help settle things down and help both parties come to an agreement. First, I would like to establish my neutrality:
- I come from the UK, and have never read any of Toure's published work, in novel, newspaper, or magazine form.
- Neither have I ever seen Toure on TV.
- From the infomation in the article, I don't even have the same taste in music.
I hope that this helps to verify my neutrality.
Now then, I would like to draw both of your attention to WP:BLP, which is a policy on wikipedia which governs the rules about biographies of living people. If you look at the 'Presumption in favor of privacy' section on the page, the first line states,
- Biographies of living people must be written conservatively and with due regard to the subject's privacy.
It also goes on to say:
- Material from primary sources should generally not be used. For example, public records may include personal details such as home value, outcomes of civil court cases, traffic citations, arrest records, and vehicles and real estate owned. Use material only from reliable third-party sources.
and
- ...editors should exercise restraint and include only information relevant to their notability.
May I ask, with this in mind, why 84.100.38.28 you feel that adding Toure's last name is relevent or important to the article? Thε Halo 14:50, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
