Legal issues
There has been edit warring over the inclusion of Hynes' legal issues. , please explain why this content that references reliable sources should be removed. It does not appear false or even misleading. –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:16, 16 May 2023 (UTC)


 * 100% false. He was NOT found guilty of a single crime. Being charged with something is not being found guilty. Nor was he found guilty by a jury or admitted guilty in anyway.  So indeed what Im ben online is trying to say is not properly sourced and is not factual Spdrcr19 (talk) 08:20, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The content you are removing does not say he was found guilty. –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:22, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * All of the content removed was NOT sourced. Spdrcr19 (talk) 08:25, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * What are these then? Bill Hynes, Bill Hynes. –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:28, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

 * It's not unsourced or poorly sourced. –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:31, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Very poorly sourced and will
 * need additional sources it is libelous and the people associated with it are  being sued for defamation. Spdrcr19 (talk) 08:33, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * You're skirting very close to a legal threat. Please see WP:NLT and don't pursue this line of argument. The content was adequately sourced. — Czello (music) 08:34, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * It is not a legal threat. People are indeed being sued. https://www.yorkdispatch.com/story/news/local/2023/03/09/new-front-opens-in-think-loud-legal-saga-as-bill-hynes-files-defamation-suit/69987058007/ Spdrcr19 (talk) 08:37, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * If you're not making a threat towards Wikipedia or its editors then other people being sued doesn't matter. Billy Mitchell sues people, but it doesn't make him any less of a fraud.
 * All we've done is report on the facts of his arrests, settlements, and pleas. It all is sourced, and your blanket removal of them smells like whitewashing. — Czello (music) 08:49, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

 * Are you stuck in a loop? As FormalDude said, it's not unsourced or poorly sourced. — Czello (music) 08:53, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Assuming "it" is
 * "In September 2022 he plead no contest to felony criminal trespass, felony theft by deception, two counts of felony forgery, misdemeanor stalking, and misdemeanor simple assault for incidents in 2018/2019 regarding a former female employee with whom he had an intimate relationship. He was in house arrest as of February 18, 2023. "
 * Then Czello is right. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:30, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * How do you know this? What is your association with Bill Hynes? –– Formal Dude  (talk)  08:35, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * It was in the paper. That’s how. Zero association. What is your association against hynes ???? Spdrcr19 (talk) 08:36, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Since you upload pics you say you have taken of him, it's a reasonable question. What is your WP:COI here? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:09, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
