Please stop adding unreferenced controversial biographical content to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Nelson Piquet Jr.. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.  Pyrop e  17:14, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Adding unsourced biographical information
I DON'T KNOW ANY OTHER WAY TO CONTACT YOU SO I AM WRITING IT HERE... IF YOU ARE SO CONCERNED ABOUT KEEPING PAGES LIKE PIQUET JR.'S CORRECT THEN WHY DON'T YOU UPDATE HIS RECENT LOCATION, LIKE IT STATES THERE THAT HE LIVES IN OXFORD, WHICH HE DOES NOT. AND I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT HE IS GAY BECAUSE HIM AND I DATED AND WE ARE STILL FRIENDS NOW, SO I KNOW MY FACTS, NOW, DO YOU? IF YOU BLOCK ME I WILL CONTACT WIKIPEDIA MYSELF.


 * Right, lesson 1: Talk pages are the pages for talking on. The clue is in the name. If you can find my userpage then you can find my talk page, they are right next to each other. You can clearly find your own talk page as you saw my warning, above. Lesson 2: The standard for Wikipedia is not truth, but verifiability. In other words, if it hasn't been published elsewhere in reliable sources then it does not belong here. You may or may not have dated him, I don't care, unless you have published a book on the subject or been photographed with him kissing and cuddling out in public it is irrelevant. This is particularly true of contentious personal information in articles about living people, and this is the only area in which Wikipedia has what amounts to hard-and-fast rules. To the best of my knowledge there has never been any public discussion of Mr Piquet's sexuality in anything approaching a reliable source. Blog speculation and tabloid press drivel are not reliable sources. Adding this information to his article without citing a proper source is just not on. Saying where he is reported to or has previously lived is not contentious, so even if it is slightly out of date we can live with it. Sadly, even today, there are cultures and people around the world who treat homosexuality as a negative trait, so we can not live with this sort of information being added without a proper source. As far as I am aware, the only public figure who has even mentioned a "gentleman" friend is Flavio Briatore, and he is a long long way from being impartial. Even he had to admit that "the nature of their relationship is unknown", which suggests to me that Mr Briatore is actually covering his back from potential libel suits. You claim you are a friend of his and yet you feel able to continue spreading potentially harmful rumours that he himself has not commented on. With friends like that who needs enemies? If you want to continue this I suggest you head to Blogspot and get yourself a blog that you can control, Wikipedia is not a forum for pushing personal agendas. As far as blocking you goes, I am not an admin so I won't be blocking you at all. However, if you continue with this behaviour I most certainly will point it out to an admin and they will then decide whether to block you or not.  Pyrop e  15:21, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
