Biographies of living persons
[edit]Please read the important policy WP:Biographies of living persons. You should read the whole of it, but note in particular that it includes:
"Contentious material about living persons... that is unsourced or poorly sourced – whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable – should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion."
"Source" means a reliable, published source, not personal knowledge or gossip.
That policy applies to article talk pages, which are publicly viewable, as well as to articles. I have removed from Talk:7HO FM, and revision-deleted so as to hide it in the history, a gross violation of this policy which you posted on 3 July. An encyclopedia is not for scandal-mongering and personal feuds. Any repetition will result in your account being blocked. JohnCD (talk) 11:53, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
