Welcome!
Hello, AboutGirl, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed.

Help me!
Hello, thank you for welcoming me in Wikipedia. I am curious how come my edits are not considered to be true, but the current state of page is considered valid? Citing Wikipedia:Verifiability: "When reliable sources disagree, present what the various sources say, give each side its due weight, and maintain a neutral point of view." Current state of article is not neutral and is not presenting both sides, more disturbingly, it is presenting halftruths. It is more relying on third-handed accounts than court ruling. How come is that possible to be called reliable information? I am deeply concerned about this article bit. Please give more thought to the edits I make. Thank you.

 * To me this looks like a content dispute which should be discussed on the article's talk page. You already commented there; please give other editors some time to respond. Personally I rather doubt the likes of Vanity Fair should be used to replace The New York Times. Also, Wikipedia should not rely on court documents; see WP:BLPPRIMARY for the relevant guideline.

 * I am not questioning the validity of your change, just the reliability of your source, as sates, it's hard to replace a NYT citation in favor of Vanity Fair.   Mlpearc  ( open channel ) 14:55, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
