User:FrederalBacon/Don't put your name in your family member's article

So, you've got a family member with a Wikipedia article, and you want to add some information regarding their personal life. Perhaps you want to add your name, or information about their current city, or more about the rest of your family.

Don't.

And not just because we have guidelines regarding the inclusion of information into articles. That edit, potentially with way more personal information than most figures with a Wikipedia article would ever want given out on that page, is there forever. Sure, the edit will be reverted as unsourced information, and it'll be gone from the page. But we don't delete the history of pages here at Wikipedia. Which means someone could look through the history of your family member's page, and see that information, forever, unless it is oversighted for blatant personal information, like an address or something.
