Untitled[edit]

Who the hell is this guy? "Ugandan property tycoon"? Is there even any expensive property in Uganda?

It's a very good question. I don't know, but I created the article as a way of attempting to find out. Jpatokal (talk) 13:41, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

Please stop removing referenced information. The name "Michael Ezra Kato" is used in eg. this article from the New Vision, a reputable newspaper. Jpatokal (talk) 15:28, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Biased[edit]

Seems to fail to include any realistic source of income and instead paints as an exclusive philanthropist, comes across more like a publicity/media relations exercise than anything else. I would seriously consider for deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.190.199.92 (talk) 12:19, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Tagged as POV. This needs a thorough rewrite. Jpatokal (talk) 02:28, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I believe Jpatokal is biased and has broken all the rules for editing biographies NPOV,Verifiablity and NOR. I clearly cited the sources which are reliable and published.Prodigalson49 (talk) 08:17, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Prodigalson49, could you disclose the nature of your relationship to Michael Ezra, if any?
Also, do you dispute that this article by senior reporter Fortunate Ahimbisibwe was published in the New Vision, a reputable newspaper used for other cites in this same article, on Sunday, 11th April, 2004? Jpatokal (talk) 12:26, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Jpatokal The information you have posted is contentious and libelous. BLP editing rules state it must be removed immediately if unsourced or ‘poorly sourced’. There is no record of that article anywhere other than on the Ugandanet platform which is not a genuine newspaper archive. Please refer to the rules on NOR and Verifiability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prodigalson49 (talk • contribs) 16:22, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Are you asserting that the newspaper article archived on Ugandanet is a forgery, and that the New Vision did not actually publish such an article? Should we ask its author Mr Ahimbisibwe for confirmation?
Also, since you seem to spend an awful lot of time working on this article and nothing else on Wikipedia, could you clarify the nature of your relationship to Michael Ezra, if any? I am concerned that you may have a conflict of interest. Jpatokal (talk) 08:17, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jpatokal I am not in any way related to Michael Ezra. I am however, interested in the proper procedure of editing a BLP. I am willing to remove whatever contentious or NPOV material i have used. Although you seem to be very intimate with Ugandan newspapers and their staff, i do not share the same privilege but the citation you used is not a genuine archive but All Africa on the other hand is. The first line on NPOV page reads "Editing from a neutral point of view (NPOV) means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without bias, all of the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic". You my good man sound biased. If you must know i once did a lot of research on the subject matter and that's what sparked my interest. But i found you had started the article with negative views and No Original Research.Prodigalson49 (talk) 22:23, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

More than one[edit]

There seems to be more than one Michael Ezra. I want a disambiguation page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.221.114.193 (talk) 10:50, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Doubt[edit]

There is considerable doubt about the existence of the Ugandan Michael Ezra. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.221.114.193 (talk) 10:53, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
