Accusations[edit]

Wikipedia is not a gossip column. This isnt worthy of accusations until there's a lawsuit on this matter it must not be on this page.Thereragea (talk) 23:14, 16 March 2018 (UTC)— Thereragea (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Can i receive assistance on this bio as i understand it BLP shouldnt include accusations? Thereragea (talk) 23:13, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's not correct. If the person is a public figure, which is clearly the case here, accusations can be included so long as they are well-documented by reliable sources, see the BLPCRIME policy. However, the PUBLICFIGURE policy requires there to be multiple (which means at least two) reliable sources for the information and I can only find the Atlantic one already cited in the edit in question and stories either about that story, which don't count as a second source, or from sources which Wikipedia doesn't consider to be clearly reliable (and high-quality, clearly-reliable sources are needed for contentious information about living persons). So I'm not going to revert your removal for that reason. But if someone does find a second clearly-reliable source there's no reason the information cannot be in the article. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 18:27, 17 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think that in light of the subsequent criminal charges, which directly stemmed from the Copaken allegations, resulting in multiple coverage satisfiying WP:PUBLICFIGURE, the Copaken allegations definitely belong in the article. Coretheapple (talk) 16:56, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Divorce[edit]

The spouse section in the side bar is inaccurate. The subject divorced his first wife in 2015. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.54.220.27 (talk) 04:59, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
