Your recent edits to Dennis L. Montgomery could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. &eta;oian  &Dagger;orever &eta;ew &Dagger;rontiers  09:29, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Sorry, but threatening, harassing and intimidating living people is ALREADY also against Wikipedia policy. That policy is publicly posted. Therefore giving people the impression they may be liable for violating the law and Wikipedia policy is appropriate and proper.

So you cannot contest a reminder for people not to violate Wikipedia policy by citing Wikipedia policy.

On the other hand, having been warned not to violate Wikipedia policy concerning harassment, threats, and intimidation of living persons through Wikipedia could be used as additional proof in any legal proceeding against Wikipedia. When provided with warning of the violation of Wikipedia policy and the law, Wikipedia is doubling down on violating the law and Wikipedia policy.

So you are just making it worse.

Obey Wikipedia policy against threatening, intimidating, and harassing living persons and you will also be complying with the law. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.50.47 (talk) 18:16, 18 February 2015
 * 71, no one here is threatening or harassing or intimidating anyone. If someone else is doing that, you need to contact the proper legal authorities. The personal info is out of the article for now, and I doubt it will be put back in, since other editors have already argued against that. And again, as volunteer editors, there isn't a lot we can do about threats made off-site, so I recommend you contact the legal team at the e-mail address below.

Your privacy
71, if you think there is a legal or privacy issue involving people being named in articles, please contact the Wikimedia legal staff at legal@wikimedia.org - The rest of us our volunteer editors and we simply don't have the knowledge or capability to deal with an issue like this.

You have been blocked from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action. If you If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved.
