Chris Wattie[edit]

(copied from User:Meditor's talk page)

I noticed you removed a bunch of facts without mention. I have reverted this because it appears as if it were vandalism. Can you explain your actions? Thx. --Deodar 03:30, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how to respond to you so I will respond in this space. Your original article is wrong - there are two Chris Watties, one is a photojournalist living in Ottawa, the other is a journalist living in Toronto. The journalist doesn't want to be linked to the Iranian badge story and it was a big mistake. His lawyers will be talking to you. Please leave my edits. Your own story was wrong.

Hi. Thanks for the clarification that there are two Chris Watties -- this will be fixed. Also, can you pass along my full personal coordinates to his lawyer, I look forward to talking with him: http://www.exocortex.org/ben/resume.html. It is public domain knowledge that Chris Wattie authored a front page National Post story that later proved to be very erroneous -- by doing so he became notable and thus it is appropriate to include him in Wikipedia. We should fix incorrect information and not include smears or deflamations of character or editorializing (Wikipedia is not a soap box.) But I am an experienced editor of Wikipedia and as such I will not accept the censoring of the undeniable public domain record of Chris Wattie because he might not like it. --Deodar 18:22, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP violation removed[edit]

There is no need to have the man's student number in this article. That is a piece of detail akin to publishing his SIN number and as such its inclusion violates WP:BLP. I have removed it. 70.72.223.215 (talk) 20:15, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merged[edit]

I've merged the main article of this WP:BLP1E into the main WP:1E article: 2006 Iranian sumptuary law controversy. JFHJr (㊟) 07:46, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
