Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions, including your edits to Ezra Levant. However, please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not be libelous. Any controversial statements about a living person added to an article, or any other Wikipedia page, must include proper sources. Thank you.

I will ask you again not to insert unsourced information into the article on Ezra Levant, or to insert information which has already been dealt with in another section of the article, both of which violate Wikipedia polies on biographical information about living persons, for which the standard of proof required is very high.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 20:28, 26 December 2009 (UTC))[reply]

re your edits to Ezra Levant article

[edit]

I have reviewed your recent edits to the above, and have removed them per may rationale here. Wikipedia takes a very strong stance regarding biographies of living people and facts and allegations that place people in a negative light; the facts must both be supported by reliable sources and be relevant to the subjects notability. Under the circumstances I feel that you need to obtain consensus at the article talkpage for the inclusion of the content you provided, and you may need to compromise in not including the text of the published apology (which may be found in the sources you cite, anyway). You will likely find that other editors are willing to include as much information as you may provide that policy and guidelines permit - allow them to help you.
