IT SHOULD BE BOLDLY NOTATED ON THIS PAGE THAT JEREMY DEWITTE HAS ABSOLUTELY "ZERO" MILITARY HISTORY, EXPERIENCE, OR SERVICE RECORD! In no way whatsoever did he ever serve in any branch of military! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C48:54F0:8450:42EA:2B7C:7C46:5373 ( talk) 15:27, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
As someone addicted to watching this guy self-destruct, I have to say I am not sure that Dewitte is notable enough for his own article. A.S. Williams ( talk) 22:28, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
The exchanges between @
CNMall41 and @
Noloader need to cool down a few degrees.
I'm not going to take sides on the content issue - adding information that's verifiable and not controversial should be OK even if it comes from quality primary sources, and we also need to respect the fact this is a BLP article and the highest standards of sourcing need to apply.
Since @ CNMall41 has restored the status quo ante it seems the next step has to be discussion on this talk page to try to reach consensus. I think that's consistent with WP:ONUS. Sniping at other editors in the edit summaries is not going to end in consensus. Nor will posting warnings on the other person's talk page, even if those warnings are well-intentioned and justifiable. What will help is explaining here, for each disputed fact, why you think its inclusion does or doesn't meet policy. Oblivy ( talk) 06:52, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
User blocked by now an IP is attempting to add same BLP violations and unsourced content. Requested semi-protection. The talk page is here for anyone wishing to discuss as opposed to WP:BLUDGEON.-- CNMall41 ( talk) 19:26, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
For example, a list of his convictions? I find the article a little confusing because it seems to go back and forth between arrests and convictions. I think that focussing on convictions would be the most responsible way to handle the BLP. Dogweather ( talk) 19:00, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
editors must seriously consider not including material—in any article—that suggests the person has committed or is accused of having committed a crime, unless a conviction has been securedBut I would support any edits that brings greater clarity.
