removal of information?

The detail that Ricky Berens is currently dating a fellow UT swimmer (Marisa Rodriguez) was removed. It should be reinstated on the page, possibly in a Personal Life section, if it does not gel with the rest of the information on this section. But this is a fact beyond reasonable doubt, and was removed for no apparent reason.

This hasn't be stated in interviews, so is it really approriate to post his girlfriend's full name? Would it not be better to just state he was dating a fellow UT swimmer? Lonleystreet (talk) 19:04, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that is fine. But it's not as though their relationship is not common knowledge, which is why the information is posted there. :)
