Please do not add content which gives undue weight to some statement about a living person. On Wikipedia, we take particular care over articles about living people.
New information, even if referenced, should be added only if noteworthy, relevant and documented in multiple reliable third-party sources. Wikipedia is not a newspaper and material should not be added if it is only gossip or has little longer-term importance, or if the only sourcing is tabloid journalism.
If challenged, the onus is on the editor who adds the content to justify its retention. Thank you.

. - To give greater detail to your message, you may add the article and some additional text to the end of the template. If such article or additional text includes a URL or anything which includes an equal sign ("="), it may break the parser's function unless you prefix the article or the text with a named template parameter. Use "
1=
" if the article contains an equals sign and use "2=
" if the additional text contains an equals sign (such as a URL). - This template automatically populates the relevant category with the user page. If and when the user account gets blocked, or approximately eight weeks pass with no further action, that categorization is automatically removed.
