Requesting help with vandalism attacks to this page.Kelsbury (talk) 18:56, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Which page are you referring to?--Laun chba ller 21:01, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this labeled "vandalism?" The statement that Brunicardi's reference to his Baylor web page is outdated is true. The statement that he was fired/terminated from Baylor is true. The statements that he slandered fellow faculty members, and was involved in lawsuits, are true.

Meanwhile, Wiki itself says "this page reads like an advertisement" which, honestly, it DOES. Hence the addition of not so flattering "truth" about this guy. Now, if you tell me that Wiki exists only to tell the positive sides of individuals, then please scrub all of your pages, e.g. George W. Bush, Charles Manson, etc.

But in any event, the additions that you were 'undone' were not "vandalism."

Wikipedia is a website for biographies, which are neutral. Again, which article are you referring to?--Laun chba ller 00:06, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kelsbury. The edits by IP 76.31.203.30 to F. Charles Brunicardi were indeed inappropriate, but a handful of edits by a single IP doesn't really warrant any administrative action - the unsourced, POV claims have now been redacted, and unless they reappear, there's really nothing more to be done. As Soap points out below, Barek appears to have the article watchlisted, and has done a sterling job of removing uncited information and restoring a neutral tone to the page; I don't think you have anything more to worry about.

Your edits on F. Charles Brunicardi seem fine to me, but I'm honestly not sure how you found me and I really am not the best person to ask for advice. I think Barek's edits are good as well (as of right now), because few people will want to know that much detail of someone's career history without leaving Wikipedia, and because it was unsourced. Sorry I can't be of more help but I think the article is in good hands now anyway. —Soap— 02:37, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
