Belle Knox

No discussion on Belle Knox and yet it has been nominated for deletion 2 times by haters?--150.216.254.207 (talk) 00:12, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

  • Please assume good faith! The problem is that first, the article was initially deleted and the talk history from that first version does not show up on the current talk page. You can see it in the talk page history and I'll see if I can get it archived somehow. As far as the nominations go, the first nomination came when the story had just broken and there were concerns that everything fell under WP:BLP1E. In a nutshell, that policy is concerned with the idea that someone might have gained coverage for something that is fleeting and would ultimately be forgotten in a few weeks or so. Daniel Morgan Perry and the Ikea Monkey are excellent examples of things that gained quite a bit of coverage at first but had no lasting notability and did not gain any real further coverage. When the page was re-created a little bit ago, it didn't have that much coverage or content compared to the last version and given the discussion at the last AfD, it's reasonable to be concerned over lasting notability and taking the article back to AfD was the right thing to do in this instance. While Knox's reasons for coverage are contentious for obvious reasons, people nominating her article for deletion does not automatically mean that they are "haters".

SVU episode

http://uproxx.com/tv/2014/10/whats-on-tonight-svu-does-its-duke-porn-star-episode/ Gaijin42 (talk) 01:52, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

I was thinking about how to properly include this and I think a simple mention using the XOJane article she wrote might be easiest under the heading of "Advocacy",

http://www.xojane.com/it-happened-to-me/belle-knox-evie-barnes-law-and-order-svu. Yes, its a primary source, but it does describe the producers intentions for the episode to mirror Knox's situation. --SChotrod - Just your average banjo playing, drag racing, cowboy...

Since the episode mirrors essentially the early porn and outing story, I was thinking a sentence or so in the Belle_Knox#Outing_and_harassment might be appropriate.

One important BLP detail in that xojane story is Knox saying she was raped (although unless I missed it, the story does not say when or under what circumstances, so I don't know if it was earlier in her life, or during her porn career). Gaijin42 (talk) 18:09, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Yes, if there is adequate sourcing that is much more relevant than the SVU pop culture reference. I reduced the SVU coverage to one sentence as suggested above; I think more than that would be unnecessary. VQuakr (talk) 06:56, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Parents' names

I have removed the parents' names. While we had a source for them, they do not significantly improve our readers' understanding of Knox, are not themselves notable, and should have the benefit of a presumption of privacy. Huon (talk) 20:00, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

Seems reasonable. VQuakr (talk) 02:46, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

Twitter username @belle_knox no longer hers

It now has only a single tweet, which apparently advertises a cam site. 71.183.132.20 (talk) 02:58, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Before her website closed she mentioned she deleted all the social media accounts. From the archive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.81.147.8 (talk) 12:03, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

Amanda Knox

An IP editor removed mention that she was exonerated without comment. We should not let people reading this assume she really did it. The wording is up to date, but guiltism when she isn't guilty is unacceptable. I restored the wording as it was months ago. DreamGuy (talk) 16:04, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
