[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm MichaelMaggs. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Troy Hunt, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Where on kyliehunt.com is there information stating that she is the ex-wife of Troy Hunt, that she was known as Kylie Hunt, and giving the divorce date? I'm not doubting the person is correct, but Wikipedia is very careful with information about living people and a reliable souce is essential. MichaelMaggs (talk) 10:30, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
