Template talk:Editnotices/Page/CGP Grey

Admin, this has been an ongoing issue with this article. Well meaning editors have been adding Grey's name and picture as they can find both online. Grey has personally asked for us to not publish this stuff. I'd like to dissuade other editors from doing so. Chris Troutman ( talk ) 23:29, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
 * ❌ This is very much a grey area. WP:BLPNAME suggests that excluding the names of people "who are not directly involved in an article's topic" is preferable, but it's mostly silent on the use of names of the article's subject. WP:BLPPRIVACY doesn't say anything whatsoever about images. WP:MUG suggests that we shouldn't use images where the person being photographed didn't expect to be photographed, but he's gone to events and allowed his picture to be taken with fans, so this does not apply. I read through the discussion from 2014, where editors generally appeared to agree that the subject's request for removal of his name and picture was acceptable. But that's quite a long time ago and consensus can change. Could you develop clear consensus for such an edit notice on the talk page, please? ~ RobTalk 01:12, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
