Repeated re-addition of non-notable people
[edit]An IP hopping editor keeps adding non-notable people to this article, claiming to be a local person with "local knowledge"
Wikipedia is not interested in who an editor is, where they are from, or what they "know".
Wikipedia is only interested in what has already been published in reliable sources, which need to be cited in order to support information added to our pages.
Specifically, with respect to these additions the rule is at WP:Settlement - "Include ONLY people with a Wikipedia article".
As the people added did not have their own articles, they were correctly removed, and any re-additions will be removed, unless/until these people have articles written and accepted in the English Wikipedia.
Further additions of people without articles will end up with the editor being blocked and/or the article being protected. - Arjayay (talk) 11:02, 11 July 2019 (UTC)
- In this situation, Arjayay specifically refers to the Notable people section of WP:Settlement. OkayKenji (talk page) 13:59, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
