Picture

Does comeone not have a better picture of him? Fry2000 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fry2000 (talk • contribs) 16:08, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

That is a pretty awful picture. It should come with a sound bite of 'Who ate all the pies!'DarthJoeyJoJo (talk) 15:14, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Removed, I think this is one of the cases where no picture is better than a bad one. x42bn6 Talk Mess 12:45, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

I do not agree hat no image is better than that image, that image is funny and a clear picture of him, why on earth should we not use it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.250.86.126 (talk) 02:45, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

"Negative Content"

Someone constantly removes content that paints Ruddock's character in a negative light. However, this is contravening Wikipedia's polcies, as the content is TRUE. Truth is a defence to defamation, because it actually reflects the truth of the matter. Ruddock's character is not in that sense, negatively portrayed anymore, because the material is true, meaning that those are indeed Ruddock's actions and statements, and truth. The negative statements concerning Ruddock's deliberate decision to break Andrew Cole's legs, is something that he admitted to freely in a public televised interview, and as such, are not defamatory and true. To suggest that negative information can be removed just because they are negative is a contravention of Wikipedia's integrity for balance and fairness and implies that someone (perhaps Ruddock or his PR people) is tampering with the integrity of the information by manipulation.

A user titled "Daemonic Kangaroo" keeps removing a perfectly legitimate source citing "negative content" that is discussed in the previous heading. This is not in fact negative information, because it is information which does exist, and is justified. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.111.0.12 (talk) 01:36, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

I have checked up on the history page, and Daemonic Kangaroo seems to always edit out unfavourable information, which contravenes Wikipedia's policy. Ruddock's PR agent perhaps?

I will continue to remove negative comment without proper citation. A link to a video is not acceptable. Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 06:41, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Can Anyone back up Daemonic Kangaroo's point about a video not being acceptable? A video which has the very subject himself in person speaking clearly in an interview is referenceable. Show us the statutes and policies by Wikipedia where this is held to be invalid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.111.0.12 (talk) 18:50, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

If the link to the video cites Ruddock himself admitting to something, it is a perfectly acceptable source. Daemonic Kangaroo is wrong! The section should remain in the article. Jacobsdad (talk) 16:53, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Perhaps you should actually read the article and follow up the references - the interview is now mentioned and properly referenced. -- Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 18:21, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
