Wikipedia as free publicity - not an encyclopaedia article. 86.167.21.187 (talk) 10:15, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Biographical articles in Wikipedia are mainly about people's careers and achievements - they are not gossip columns. There are considerations such as WP:PRIVACY to be considered in WP:BLP, and also the content depends very much on what is available in reliable sources, and what editors find. As it happens, I have just come across a bit of personal info in the Desert Island Discs article and added that. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:26, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
