Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Kate Mulgrew. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. NeilN talk to me 16:53, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Please help me. I work with Kate Mulgrew and she tells me that that section relating to abortion is untrue. She is neither a supporter of or a detractor of abortion. She REALLY wants that removed from her page. How do I go about making that happen?

Also, Tim Hagan's page states that he is divorced from Kate. Can I use that as a source?

This has the direct quote, "Abortion does not compute with my philosophy." If she wants to clarify her views, she needs to get them published somewhere. --NeilN talk to me 18:38, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia articles cannot be used as sources for other articles. The sentence in the Hagen article is also unsourced. Do you have a published source covering the divorce? --NeilN talk to me 18:43, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
