Be cautious and slow

In editing a highly controversial BLP I suggest you be very cautious, slow and thoughtful in your edits. IRWolfie- (talk) 09:10, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, IRWolfie. Thanks. I get the impression that many people are trying to sanitize the article, so much so that one administrator was censoring Jimmy Wales over the issue.--Crème3.14159 (talk) 09:16, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually that admin was only censoring BLP violations, regardless of whoever committed that. It may be the case that his understanding of BLP was wrong to some extent but he was doing it all in good faith. Besides I suggest you take IRWolfie's suggestion seriously. --SMS ^Talk 09:33, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Part of being thoughtful and slow around BLP issues is gaining consensus for every addition to the article that involves a claim that may besmirch a living person, especially when you are reverted. Discuss additions on the talk page and make sure you have consensus before making changes. Be aware that we don't need to cover every twist and turn in the incident, but rather we should cover the main issues which will be relevant to the article years from now. If we get the article wrong it can be highly damaging to people. Also be aware that admins can impose sanctions at their own discretion when it comes to BLP issues, IRWolfie- (talk) 10:28, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

All right, Wolfie. I will keep that in mind but exactly what needs permission and what does not remains unclear.--Crème3.14159 (talk) 10:32, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anything that appears in any way controversial about a living person. Particularly opinions or allegations, IRWolfie- (talk) 10:54, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Point taken. How is "sexual assault" a better way to describe the charge of "rape" (Indian Penal Code, section 376) under which someone has been arrested? If you look at the article, there are numerous newspapers reporting rape charges.--Crème3.14159 (talk) 11:12, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There's 2 things I'm not sure of right now (maybe it's because you don't understand this project yet): 1) why you would advise Bbb23 that there is a NEW WP:AN discussion, when you merely commented on an existing one (I removed the notification); 2) why you would even make an inflammatory/derogatory and even FALSE statement on AN like that anyway ES &L 13:16, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I added the notification because there was a big bold warning above that I must do so. And I do not know which "inflammatory/derogatory" remark you are referring to. Don't you think you should hound Jimmy Wales instead for actually making strong remarks against Bbb23? Is it because I am not a Wikibigshot? --Crème3.14159 (talk) 13:20, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
