Talk:Michael Reid (evangelist)

Untitled
Should this be altered to WAS a Christian evangelist rather than is?

Former Bishop Reid has been charged with rape http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article.html?Bonking_Bishop_held_on_rape_claim&in_article_id=734476&in_page_id=34 http://atlantatowing.info/2009/09/11/bishop-michael-reid-%E2%80%9Cquizzed-on-suspicion-of-rape%E2%80%9D-by-police/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.113.75.37 (talk) 23:41, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
 * He's been "questioned on suspicion of rape", not "charged with rape". Hut 8.5 10:24, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Indeed, there is a big difference. He was arrested, interviewed and released on bail. He has *not* been charged so far. From some of the other talk on this matter it sounds like this is an historical rape, which are notoriously hard to prove. No DNA evidence, usually one person claims he did, and I'm sure him saying he didn't. So I wouldn't be surprised if it went no further.
 * However the arrest and release on bail are a matter of record, so I have added them to the profile complete with two references direct to UK newspapers.79.74.171.229 (talk) 16:10, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Remove tags
It strikes me that the notability and BLP sources tags in this article are now obsolete. There's been a lot of editing since they were added. Does anyone have any objections to me removing them? Sidefall (talk) 12:30, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Violations of WP:BLP and WP:BLPCRIME
I have heavily edited the article to remove content that was unsourced for almost a year, and deleted content that was a violation of WP:BLPCRIME. Please be careful with what you add to a biography of a living person.  Flat Out  let's discuss it  03:05, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
