[edit]You seem to have added or restored some obviously controversial material in the article Daniel J. Evans. I'm not sure whether you are familiar with the policy on biographies of living persons (WP:BLP); please do have a look at it.
I've done my best to cite for the bulk of the article (I also expanded it quite a bit). I'm afraid I was not logged in during some of my edits; I placed a note on the talk page "claiming" my edits. I removed the claim about a "close, long-term friendship with Ted Bundy, executed serial killer" (though I left the one external link with a letter of recommendation. Nothing in the letter suggests a "close friendship", it seems a pretty standard letter by a politician for a campaign worker. Under WP:BLP, a statement like that would require far stronger evidence. I'm not saying it's untrue, I'm saying that you'd need to cite for it.
The other uncited claims I have simply marked as uncited. If you can provide citations, they would be very welcome. - Jmabel | Talk 20:56, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
What evidence do you have that the information you are adding to the article even applies to this Michelle Malkin? This Malkin isn't even an attorney, to my knowledge. Please, as you've been told above, refer to WP:BLP and WP:RS. Kelly hi! 09:10, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
- The Bar Association link refers to "Michelle L. Malkin" -- Michelle Malkin's middle name seems to be "Marie". Please don't edit war next time, especially when your facts are hazy.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:59, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
