Unsourced BLP claims

why do mentions of redacted charges continualy get removed for wikipedia? is this a goverment censorship gone mad or what? we should learn that information for free not have to hide it from the public viewpoint or else its no different than china or iraq for god sake! we demand public information! if this happens more, perhaps I will be reporting it to national news media about the bias of wikipedia and then the whole website will lose its credibility and it wont be trusted as far as you could throw it! you have been cautioned. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.24.3.41 (talk) 09:35, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's very simple: provide a valid source for your dubious claims. Otherwise you will be treated as a vandal. You have been cautioned. Freshfighter9talk 13:58, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
all you have to do is check the newspaper website and also it was aluded to on his personal homepage and facebook postss that have subsequently removed but obviously I cant be held responsible for that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.24.3.41 (talk) 14:10, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Obviously you're new here. The burden is on YOU to back up your assertions with reliable sources. If you are unable to do so, don't expect anyone else to stand behind your claims. If what you are saying is as true as you claim it is, you should have absolutely no trouble finding even one reliable source to back it up. A quick look online found NOTHING, which doesn't look good for you. Freshfighter9talk 14:20, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Spare us. Wikipedia does not deal in libel, and given no such Toronto Star article exists, your edits simply will not be allowed to stand. Do not repost it or you will be blocked. Resolute 15:49, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please help improve this article by expanding it.

This article is fairly short considering the profile of Scott Oake. I think we should add some more info about Scott himself. Would anybody have any objections to a short paragraph about his hairstyle? Also, does anyone else have any suggestions as to what we could add to improve this article? I think if we work hard and get this page bursting with info with maybe a few photos to break it up a bit, we could possibly nominate it to be featured on the main page.
