| :I see that you've removed the "Personal life" section from Garvey's article. Her marriage to Chiles is certainly undisputed, 2 children likewise (although details might be inappropriate). Chiles' fondness for West Brom is widely known (although incomprehensible). Their separation was widely publicised at the time and there was a ref, albeit to the Daily Mail (the Daily Mail is printed in tabloid format but it's not widely regarded as a "tabloid", although some find its political reporting unreliable). Here's an alternative source: - I would think this is ok and it confirms their marriage. Her involvement in the Southall crash is confirmed here: . | |||
| :I found these in 2 mins via Google; perhaps a call for better refs ''before'' deletion or, even better, adding them, would have been better.

| :::Ok, I'll add suitably ref'd info. My initial concern was that there might have been an attempt to censor personal data & if so, whether there was a sound reason. I'm aware of the need for care with bios of the living, but the issues are whether the Daily Mail is a reliable source and the lack of forewarning. Most people listening to the BBC and reading British "quality" newspapers would have been aware of the Garvey/Chiles marriage and separation. It was not tabloid speculation. Although the Daily Mail has faults, there are aspects where it does well and in this case, the report was reliable. As cetainty is so important in this group of articles, why were other unsupported facts not queried in detail and/or removed? Just curious. As far as "burden of proof" is concerned - I agree with you. However, when I delete in this way - and I have - I would usually either have used the ''cn'' tag first or, where reasonable, left a note on the other editor's talk page. It's not just courteous, it gives a chance to validate good info which might otherwise be lost. Not everyone rummidges through watchlists & contributions lists to follow up edits.

| ==] sourcing.== | |||
| Re your request , I'm not quite sure why you made it. First of all, I didn't ''add'' it so much as reverted my own removal of that in the first place. Second, I've been dealing with this issue and have reviewed the OTRS ticket as well as having been e-mailed to regarding this issue, and the information I re-added was never even in dispute. There is absolutely no objection to including this subject's spouse or birthplace. I re-added this because it makes no sense to remove an infobox (which all biographies should have) which contains uncontroversial information, and it shows good faith of working with both sides on the issue about what to include rather than blindly reverting to the lesser-information version without regard to the good content that may be removed. The things in the infobox are 1. The picture, 2. the caption, 3. the birthplace, and 4. the spouse (along with marriage date). Out of these things I re-added, I can't fathom you objecting to the picture or the caption. It's a free image and there is no dispute that it is of her, and no objection to its inclusion. Even if there were an objection, we don't bow to requests by subjects to remove their picture for no reason. As for the caption, it's impossible to source that, and they are never sourced, so I will assume what you want me to revert is the birthplace and spousal information. I found a source that I believe is reliable that includes the spouse and date of marriage, which was never in dispute in the first place and is widely available information on both Orfeh and her husband's websites, so once again I don't see why you would have objected to this info being added, however I added a source so whatever objection you may have is hopefully alleviated. As for the birthplace, once again this was never in dispute, its inclusion was never in dispute, and there are in fact several sources that say she "grew up" in New York and went through the NYC public school system. However, just to appease your request since I couldn't find anything specifically saying she was "born" in New York, I removed that bit, even though I personally think "growing up" there is sufficiently valid information for "birthplace" in absence of any information to the contrary. I trust you no longer have an objection to what I re-added? ] (]) 02:07, 20 April 2009 (UTC) | |||

Do you think sockpuppetry may have made a difference in the result of that afd, was there sockpuppetry happening there, am I paranoid (more than I know I am), should I not ask you these questions, should I have done this earlier? ] (]) 19:48, 28 May 2009 (UTC) | |||

| :This is just a guideline to people, not an instruction. And it's a guideline to those making an argument, not those evaluating one.

| :To argue that a piece of vandalism should stay is preposterous. If you try to delete vandalism, no one will argue with you. This is true for any piece of vandalism. In this case however, the other examples are high profile, like ]. Go and try and delete that. It meets all the criteria you have laid out for deleting the Wait Wait article, but if you tried to delete it, you would be shut down immediately. This is because articles of this sort are accepted by the community even if they are not expressly endorsed by the rules. | |||
| :The only difference between this page and others of its kind are that this is the first one for a radio show (that I know of). It is a very popular radio show, so it is notable.
