Please see the discussion on the talk page. Or don't. I don't really care. But I think that the "(pronounced "fnord")" bit is unnecessary. ~ Ghelæ talkcontribs 18:25, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I did read it, and there is no consensus, nor shall ever there be, especially if the word is ever formally given a proper way in which to be pronounced, as that will lead to even more variations. It reflects in an entertaining and factual manner the fact that there is no fact. :-D Senorsquiid 18:33, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I still think that is is... well... odd. It's obvious, and as you said "there is no consensus", then there shouldn't be how to pronounce it because there is no consensus on how to pronounce it, if you get what I mean. ~ Ghelæ talkcontribs 06:37, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This notice has been left for you because another Wikipedia user suspects that, perhaps innocently, you may have defamed someone in your contributions. Please recheck your edits. Do not make allegations against someone unless you have provided evidence from a reliable publication, and then make sure you describe the allegations in accordance with our content policies, particularly Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:No original research. Don't rely on hearsay, rumours, or things you believe without evidence to be facts, and don't use sources to create a novel narrative. Wikipedia requires reliable sources for all claims. Please see our policy on biographies of living persons.

Comments that defame an individual may leave you open to being sued by them. While Section 230 of the United States Communications Decency Act may protect Wikipedia from being sued for defamation, it may not protect the person who posted a defamatory claim on a Wikipedia page. The Wikimedia Foundation's Board of Trustees has ruled that: "Where the user has been vandalizing articles or persistently behaving in a disruptive way, [personal information] data may be released to assist in the targeting of IP blocks, or to assist in the formulation of a complaint to relevant Internet Service Providers."

If you may have inadvertently defamed someone in an article, do two things:

  1. If the material is still there, remove it immediately.
  2. Leave a note on the administrator's noticeboard saying that you have accidentally included defamatory claims in a named article or articles. Don't repeat the claims. The claim can then be deleted from the page history.
