I speedily deleted this article as The Fappening but with all the news coming out, perhaps it is best to leave this up to an AfD to decide whether it meets WP:EVENT. King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 20:47, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

Comment: We have stringent content and verified sources and due emphasis guidelines for a reason, and as of its present form, this article is breaking many of them. BLP would cover Apple, Inc., as well as the named women celebrities, yet little has been done to substantiate the lede, which in a worst hearsay fashion accuses it of having been compromised in its critical server operations. The body of the article only includes a See Also link addressing this, and that link is not enough. As a veteran Wikipedian, I have cautioned my younger colleagues on IRC #wikipedia-en for 12 hours now if not longer to hold their horses until technical RSes of substantive and encyclopedic grade become available. At present, this is only a murky iunidentified-means crime story. --Mareklug talk 21:09, 1 September 2014 (UTC)
