I have archived all the old... disputes. Don't get too comfortable though as I intend to make new ones. Jason A. Jensen of USA ( talk) 06:55, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
Yesterday I added a paragraph, and someone deleted the paragraph without notifying me, or leaving his name.
If you object to an edit, please let me know so we can discuss it first.

Thanks for your feedback.
I have read WP:BLP, and do not see how my edits violates any the three principles it lists. I stated a fact (Torrey's appearance on CBS News was controversial), and gave a reference to the video of the program with feedback from presumed viewers illustrating that controversial response. As a licensed psychologist who has discussed Torrey's appearance with many of my colleagues in person and by email, I can tell you "controversial" is an understatement.
Then I stated another fact: literature on violence and mental health tends not to show there is a connection. I did not cite the classic Archives of General Psychiatry article on this point, which I could do, but a more recent study in the September 1, 2013 issue of the American Journal of Psychiatry. Since you have to pay to access that article, I used as a reference a September article in Psychiatric News (a journal published by the American Psychiatric Association) which discusses the research, and provides a link to an abstract of the original article.
I would appreciate knowing how you think my original edit violated one or more principles of WP:BLP.
Also, when you say I "should wait for further discussion," please let me know what you mean, and how long a wait I should expect.

Thanks for getting back to me. You may be right about some of your claims. However, I think the lede and the Criticism section, which seems to have more on Torrey's criticisms of others than criticisms of Torrey, are too sanitized. Wikiwonderwhy101 ( talk) 14:41, 5 October 2013 (UTC)
