Toby Kimball, retired NBA player[edit]

Toby Kimball did not attend Belmont, MA, High School, a public school. He attended Belmont Hill School, a private secondary school in Belmont, MA. My brother was his classmate and I was three classes behind him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.182.226.84 (talk) 13:20, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

The article on Grover is a hotbed of sockpuppetry by a fan who tries to add trivia (his tattoos, his every public appearance, all the brands he advertises for, the most fawning reviews ...) while removing less-than-positive information such as the allegations of unprofessionalism that saw him fired twice. More scrutiny couldn't hurt, also to make sure that while removing the socks' edits I don't err in the opposite direction. Huon (talk) 15:40, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

A user has been reverting to a biased view of the Stan Kroenke page that uses original research and citations from sports editorials to attack the Rams move from St. Louis to Los Angeles. Several users including myself have tried to put forth less biased views but one user constantly reverts these edits, many times violating the three revert rule. It would be nice for an administrator to solve this edit war and have an unbiased view of the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:1523:81:E933:272A:FD2F:BB75 (talk) 07:01, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

The article is not a candidate for speedy deletion in its current condition. If there are concerns with the citations—one of which is a Times of INdia news article—they're probably better addressed at the article's talk page. —C.Fred (talk) 13:52, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Bob Lambert (undercover police officer):[edit]

[1] was a wholesale revert of edits made to this BLP.

It includes specifically labelling an undercover policeman a "British Spy", insinuates strongly that he committed specific crimes for which he was not charged, and which , in some cases, were by anonymous sources.

It includes such "d'oh" innuendoes as the fact that an undercover agent does not usually tell the people he is investigating his real identity and that he has a wife. Including: After that relationship ended he embarked on another with a woman who was politically conscious, but was not herself an activist. which appears not to be salient to a biography of a not especially notable person. The edit changed "while undercover" to "under false pretences" which rather does seem pointed language about a police undercover agent.

Oh - and the revert even said his name was "Bob" in the infobox when the person writes and is known as "Robert" and "Bob" seems rather clearly a nickname. In short. I fear the reverter is ignorant of WP:BLP and including an accusation of felonies (arson, et al) where no prosecution occurred whatsoever is specifically violative of WP:BLPCRIME inter alia. Comments on why a BLP should include side material such as

On 23 October 2014, the Metropolitan Police Service agreed to pay £425,000 to a woman called Jacqui whose child was fathered by Lambert; she did not know at the time of their relationship that he was an undercover police officer. The payment was part of an agreement for her to drop her legal action alleging assault, negligence, deceit and misconduct by senior officers. She was a 22-year-old activist at the time of her relationship with Lambert – who was using the pseudonym Bob Robinson – and she gave birth to their son in 1985. When the boy was two years old his father vanished, and she told BBC News she had received psychiatric care after learning the officer's real identity. The unprecedented payment resulted from a legal battle with women who said they were duped into relationships with officers who were spying on them. Scotland Yard said it "unreservedly apologises for any pain and suffering" but added that "the Metropolitan Police Service has never had a policy that officers can use sexual relations for the purposes of policing". Scotland Yard had previously refused to either confirm or deny whether Bob Lambert was a Special Demonstration Squad operative, despite his own admissions to journalists. However, it was forced to change its position in August 2014 after a legal ruling. Mr Lambert did not respond to BBC requests for comment on the settlement but had previously said that he wanted to apologise to women with whom he had relationships and that he had made some "serious mistakes".

Unless, of course, we think that undercover police officers routinely tell those they are investigating that they are police officers, of course. And I suspect this tiny snippet of the dross which was so blatantly re-added after being removed is actually proper in a BLP. Note, by the way, that my edit retained salient information, but was aimed at removing blatant violations of Wikipedia policy. Any outside comments? Collect (talk) 15:24, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

The idea that he was a spy is specifically supported by sources given, including [2], "An academic and prominent supporter of progressive causes has been unmasked as a former spy." The fact that Collect may dislike the application of "spy" in this context is neither here nor there. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 16:47, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

We also have [3], which begins as follows: "A former police spymaster who spent years living deep undercover in the protest movement has confessed he tricked an innocent woman into having a long-term relationship with him..." Nomoskedasticity (talk) 16:48, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Please then add "SPY" to every single undercover police officer mentioned on Wikipedia. Until then, I fear I find your anxiety to label a person as a British spy to be a teensy bit unsettling at best. And why the (FITB) did you insist on adding the allegations of felonies (arson etc.) about a living person when WP:BLPCRIME is so (FITB) clear and no prosecution of any sort occurred at any level? And what the (FITB) is the use of the allegation about a seven year old boy doing in a BLP? Sorry - this looks like an absolutely (FITB) reading of the policy entirely and utterly. BTW The Guardian is sometimes known for possibly using editorial views in headlines and articles. Really. Collect (talk) 18:18, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Well, I wouldn't write that someone is a "spy" unless that's what reliable sources say about that person -- that would be original research. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 18:29, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

You sources refer to him as a 'police spy' or otherwise refer to his employer. That's really tabloid speak for what is properly termed an undercover police officer, which the sources also use. In any case this spy thing seems somewhat moot as the Persondata has been removed. Over at Wikidata it uses the real name for the occupation, which is not 'British spy'. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 18:51, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

I question the notability of this subject, and would ask that some experienced BLP editors have a look. This BLP-stub was created back in 2006 with a single edit and has only been edited by bots since. I only came across this article because people keep accidentally linking to it from various pages about yachts designed by a person of the same name.

The two obituaries are a good start as the bar for getting obituaries in the The Times and The Telegraph is far higher than for an article in Wikipedia but more sourcing would be good. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 11:25, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Notable but needed defluffing - the fact that a claim can be Wikilinked is not sufficient in itself to add any such claims unless they are useful to readers. Collect (talk) 14:12, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Clearly notable: the two obituaries are easily enough to meet WP:GNG. Jonathan A Jones (talk) 16:39, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Raina Telgemeier[edit]

Raina Telgemeier (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

In New York State notices of marital separation are not made publicly available. In order that biographers more accurately describe Raina and Dave Roman's situation and stop confusing literary events booking them, I had been asked to make the changes to Raina's entry by the subject, and save the both of them the need to publicly post on the topic.

So no, I'm not going to have an external citation, and yes, I know this is not how Wikipedia works. But I've known the two of them for over a decade, have a Wikipedia account, and am not either of them so I can make the edits.

I'm just trying to make a complicated situation easier, and let both them keep their privacy as much as is possible when you're public figure.

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Randimason (talk • contribs) 14:08, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
