[edit]
Hello, I'm Gadfium. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Debbie Ngarewa-Packer, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! -gadfium 04:24, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- The citation was linked to a Stuff article - it's also been cited from meeting minutes where she was quoted directly. Mauhika (talk) 06:07, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
- The citation you added was to Newshub. Perhaps you pasted the wrong item, because the Newshub story did not support the content you placed in the article.-gadfium 08:02, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Fiona Muir-Harvey. The source doesn't support the fact she was convicted (quite the opposite) - as this case is currently in the news we need to take extra care currently. Mdann52 (talk) 12:54, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
