Updates to defendants

[edit]

As it's related to the judgement, I've been updating the Richard B. Spencer based on info that's been going into here but specific to Spencer. Hope that's OK? Sideswipe9th (talk) 22:16, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@GorillaWarfare: tagging here because it's convenient. I added a statement from Spencer on his page, stating that he was planning on appealing the verdict. Should we add the same here or is it obvious/WP:MANDY territory? Source for that would be the AP News piece. Sideswipe9th (talk) 22:57, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Sideswipe9th: On your first comment, seems reasonable to update articles on related individuals. I have some adjacent articles I plan to update as well, though I have a Thanksgiving pie getting in my way a bit
Regarding whether to include Spencer's plan to appeal, I've included a sentence about how the plaintiff's lawyers intend to retry the federal conspiracy charges, so it seems reasonable include plans to appeal if that remains in the page. That said, if we want to omit any statements about what people involved with the trial plan to do, and wait to add things if and when they are formally appealed/retried, I'd be fine with that too.

I'm somewhat in favour of saying that he plans to appeal, as it's one of the few reactions we have at this point. At least until more fleshed out legal analyses get published over the coming hours/days. It'd be difficult though if multiple of the defendants state the same intent, as given the sheer number that could get wordy. That said, I'm more familiar with UK legal proceedings than US as I live in the UK, so I'm not entirely sure if he has grounds to appeal or not. Or if that's even a even a concept in American legal practice. I'll add it for now, but I don't have strong feelings if it gets removed or amended later.
Enjoy your pie! Sideswipe9th (talk) 23:36, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
