OTRS[edit]
Hello, an answer from the OTRS team was sent on april 1st confirming receipt of authorization for publishing biography text. Not sure why this part is no longer on the article page and what should be done to have it back there ? There is mention of biography rules on living persons which here is not the case (1932-1996). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Intervenant99 (talk • contribs) 15:26, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
