trivia

i'd advise you to look the word up in a good dictionary, jay. mr townsley's marriage into an important business dynasty is obviously noteworthy, which is why it's noted prominently in the article linked to. cheers. Jamaissur

Personal trivia belongs in a trivia section, if at all. When the article has sufficient information about Townsley's other activities, there may be a point in trivia as well. Jayjg (talk) 03:30, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
jay, you've not addressed my point. mr townsley is a businessman. his marriage into an important business dynasty is therefore noteworthy and is duly noted at some length in the article i linked to. jamaissur lemon or lime?
As above. WP:BLP insists that real biographies be written, not trivia and scandal. Once that's done, let me know. Thanks. Jayjg (talk) 22:21, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
but jay: you don't address the point above. any highly competent encyclopedist (such as yourself) should note mr townsley's highly significant marriage into an important business family. unless his competence is negatively impacticated by external factors (into whose nature we dare not enquire). jamaissur lemon or lime?
I'm not playing any more. Jayjg (talk) 04:37, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
wrong again -- protecting your special interest group does not count as play. nor does repeatedly evading a simple question. jamaissur lemon or lime?
Your question about the trivia you want to include has been answered several times in several venues, and one more claim that an editor is part of a "special interest group" will earn you a week block. Jayjg (talk) 17:03, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
