For what it's worth, personally I think the subject of that article is a horrible person who should be in jail at the very least, but it's really important for the integrity of the project that we uphold policy at all times and for all subjects.

On politics and policy

For what it's worth, personally I think the subject of that article is a horrible person who should be in jail at the very least, but it's really important for the integrity of the project that we uphold policy at all times and for all subjects. There are thousands of clear-cut examples that I suspect could triple that article's length if they were all included; I don't think we should be spending effort on the ambiguous ones, particularly when it risks giving the impression of editor bias (like this one's inclusion in the wrong section). No dissuasion intended of course, just some insight into my approach that doesn't really belong on the article talk page. NULL talk
