Ok so if I put it into my own words it will be accepted? Rob Robertson84 (talk) 17:42, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

It would need to be written in an encyclopedic tone, not as an opinion piece. See WP:NPOV. It would need to be supported by citations to reliable sources that are not opinion columns. Non-opinion news or magazine articles would be okay as supporting sources. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 17:46, 21 August 2020 (UTC)

WP:BLP is a core policy

Please ensure that any additions also adhere to BLP policy. Thank you. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 17:42, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
