But... we have rather strict rules about biographies of living persons. For instance, you can't use original research (a YouTube clip) to base a "controversy" section on. You need third party, reliable sources that there is a controversy over something, not a clip. You also can't put undue weight on a single incident without those sources again. And it simply isn't encyclopedic to compare what someone said once 4 and a half years ago with now for the purposes of ridicule or taking an expert down a peg or two. Unless, of course, you can find sources to point to a current story about this. ➨ ❝ЯEDVERS❞ dedicated to making a happy man very old 14:50, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 16:29, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
names
[edit]We use surnames not first names - so it's "Jones is alleged to " not "alan is alleged to" --Cameron Scott (talk) 12:08, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
