Protecting my Personal information

I am protecting my personal information. I want this to be deleted immediately and I do not give consent for any of the doping information to be published on my page. Jessica Pfund Skate4gold (talk) 19:35, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No ownership of articles

You do not own "your" article and cannot control what is in it. Read the conflict of interest (COI) guideline. It applies to you and limits your ability to edit out any negative material from "your" article. There can be serious consequences if you ignore this guideline because the Law of Unintended Consequences always applies:

If you write in Wikipedia about yourself, your group, your company, or your pet idea, once the article is created, you have no right to control its content, and no right to delete it outside our normal channels. Content is not deleted just because somebody doesn't like it. Any editor may add material to or remove material from the article within the terms of our content policies. If there is anything publicly available on a topic that you would not want included in an article, it will probably find its way there eventually.

All the information is already in the public domain. Equine-man (talk) 20:23, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To expand on the above, people who are the subject of articles can influence the article, but they need to declare a conflict of interest and make suggestions on the talk page of the article. I agree the initial placement of the section covering it was in a ridiculous place (at the very top, really?), so I moved it. If you want to influence the article, you need to use the talk pages, so that disinterested editors can review and apply the policies and guidelines that have developed at Wikipedia. The article at Biographies of living persons details the principles editors should use. You would have to be persuasive, using the policies there. Good advice is at Dealing with articles about yourself. "The content was false" and "not allowed to be public" and "deleted information regarding personal charges" are non-starters in this context. I wish you best. _signed,Willondon (talk) 20:48, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
