:You raise a good point. We need to decide whether or not such articles are within the scope of the project. I don't think we need worry about points 2 and 3, however. On point 2, we have an article on Hitler, after all. And on point 3, public figures are generally fair game; we'd have to really cross the line to open ourselves up to a lawsuit. I don't think edits which were promptly reverted would count, either. [[User:Tsumetai|Tsumetai]] 09:51, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

::The problem is that the particular public figures involved, routinely hire Dream Teams of lawyers and can be quite vindictive. We deal here with celebrities who spend most of their time attacking one another, often viciously--too viciously to type here. We don't want to get caught in any legal crossfire.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 11:24, 16 April 2007 (EDT)
