Talk:Tim the Yowie Man

Information on spouse and children edit

I have added back in to the article details about his children, with their names de-identified, after it has been taken out by a person at the 165.12.252.111 IP address.

If indeed Tim the Yowie Man wanted this information to be separate from his "yowie" persona, as 165.12.252.111 claims, he wouldn't write and publish newspaper articles where he talks at length about his children, including using their names and discussing their birthdays, actions and ages. I've respected 165.12.252.111's request to exclude spouse info—although the IP address is registered to the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations, and as such speaking on behalf of Tim is questionable... The reason I have respected the spouse information request is because of the 2000 publication date. I understand that someone's plans for privacy may change over that stretch of time.

But given the articles I have listed below, I believe it can be reasonably inferred that the Yowie Man does not object to information about his children being included:

  • Tim the Yowie Man (29 August 2014). "Tim the Yowie Man: Winter of discontent". The Canberra Times. Fairfax Media. {{cite news}}: Check |archiveurl= value (help)
