we need a page on how many people have purchased their degrees

How do we add "| photo = 150px" to this page to tell people to replace the photo?--Jax 0677 (talk) 00:49, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

POV

The recent edits to this article have made it a WP:POV mess that is not in compliance with the hard and fast requirements at WP:BLP. It reads like a hatchet-job done to discredit the subject of the article. To comply with BLP this needs to be fixed immediately or else all these additions will be reverted. - Ahunt (talk) 13:25, 27 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have rolled back the changes to the article and removed them all. I have read though the refs added, where they actually exist, and many newly-cited and added refs did not exist, and the refs cited did not support very much of the text added at all. Furthermore the tone and wording was very non-encyclopedic and in many cases quite WP:POV as well. Overall the additions did not come close to complying with WP:BLP, which is a hard line for additions to this class of article. Some of this text can be put back in if it is carefully edited to conform to what the refs really say, but otherwise this is just not acceptable in bio articles and had to be quickly removed to comply with Wikipedia policy. - Ahunt (talk) 00:45, 28 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
