Question on the talk page
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I saw your inquiry on Talk:2010 University of Alabama in Huntsville shooting. If you are connected with Dr. Bishop, or any of the victims of this tragedy, please accept my deepest sympathies. I believe you wanted to know how the decision was arrived at to redirect the Amy Bishop link to the page about the shooting (please correct me if I am wrong). That decision, like all decisions on Wikipedia, was made by consensus. In this instance, seven editors weighed in on the merits of redirecting the article, and reached the conclusion that a separate page would be inappropriate per Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. The most relevant policies and guidelines are WP:BLP, WP:PROF, WP:NOT, and WP:BIO, but please understand these are not decisions taken lightly. This issue has come up before, and editors need to make these judgement calls every time.

The page will continue to evolve and change, as all Wikipedia articles do. We hope that further versions are improvements on previous versions. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. --TeaDrinker (talk) 05:14, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
