Akmal Shaikh
Hi. You've edited the Akmal Shaikh article to say that he has been executed. Please could you provide your source for this? It doesn't appear to have been reported yet.218.14.50.125 (talk) 04:01, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * At the time you entered the information to say it was confirmed, it was not confirmed and nobody was reporting it for around a further hour. On Wikipedia, we have a biography of living persons policy ('BLP') - this protects living people (and recently deceased) from defamation and states that all statements in biographical articles must be backed up with a source, especially negative ones. Unsourced statements should be removed, and persistent offenders should be blocked (the blocking threshold for a BLP violation is much lower than that for other misconduct on the website because of the seriousness of the issue. Please remember that in the future.  Ryan Postlethwaite See the mess I've created or let's have banter 10:30, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for the clarification - I see it was obviously made in good faith. (Unfortunately) it seems that the Chinese are indeed extremely punctual when it comes to these things. I hope you enjoy your time here on Wikipedia - Have a welcome!  Ryan Postlethwaite See the mess I've created or let's have banter 00:46, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
