This page is problematic. As others have pointed out there are a series of edits on this page which appear to be from the subject of the article systematically sanitizing their own Wikipedia entry -- including the deletion of notable, newsworthy and controversial events described in a neutral point of view with comprehensive citations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vengeful Pangolin (talkcontribs) 13:47, 1 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Online harassment and bullying

edit

Pinging recent editors of this content: @Justsomeaddedthings, Editweshall, The person who loves reading, and Matt Deres: I have removed this section as undue. To have nearly a third of the article devoted to some e-drama sourced entirely to social media is not justifiable in my view. Without independent sourcing I don't really think it belongs in the article at all (if secondary sources don't care about it why should we?) but if someone wants to shave it down to maybe one or two sentences, taking care to maintain a dispassionate tone, I probably wouldn't worry about it.

Thank you. This article is being used to harass and bully the subject which would seem ironic. 141.168.39.49 (talk) 06:16, 27 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
The subject themselves recently wrote and published an article about it on an Australian website called Women's Agenda (which was promptly removed). Beyond that, Australian media doesn't care as outside of certain business circles, the subject is a non-entity in terms of fame and reputation.
Is their behavior abhorrent? Yes, but it shouldn't take up a third of the article. I do feel it deserves a sentence or two, though, for transparency's sake, as most of what you'll find online about the subject comes from themselves.

If no reliable source is provided for the subject matter, it can't be part of the article. AFAIK screenshots on instagram and tiktok don't count as reliable sources, so we can't include anything on this unless or until the story is properly picked up on 217.72.117.1 (talk) 11:38, 24 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
