Is Off2riorob an editor like Scott MacDonald who is policing Wikipedia for BLP violations, or is it more complicated than that?
As far as I know, he's simply trying to help Scott MacDonald police the BLPs. It's dumbfounding how much resistance he and Scott get to their efforts. If WP's administration was serious about taking care of BLPs, it would give immediate blocks to any editor who revert wars with Scott or Off2 in a BLP.
*laughs* No, they're trying to control BLPs. They've been doing that for the longest time. Any edit they make to a BLP, I immediately question what their motive was behind it.
The BLP policy is mainly so that rumors and other damaging info like that isn't included from sources that aren't very reliable. When a BLP subject openly admits to info such as sexuality (or race, ethnicity, ect.) in an interview, than that is information to include, especially when it seems like in this case the subject's sexuality is an important part of his acting career.
