Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, adding content without citing a reliable source is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are already familiar with Citing sources please take this opportunity to add your original reference to the article. Gscshoyru 02:21, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I am a member of the Board of Directors of the Church of the Transfiguration, sometimes called the "Little Church Around the Corner". The article in question is very poorly written, and in no way describes either who or what we are. However, of greatest importance, and we will vigilantly monitor this, the Board will insist, for legal reasons, that there be no references whatsoever in this article to the former rector, Charles Miller.

 * If what you say is true, then you have a WP:COI -- and should discuss the edits you wish to make on the talk page. Additionally, just because you are on the board of directors does not make you a reliable source -- see WP:V and WP:RS -- and therefore the edits you make to this article and all others must be sourced, ok? Finally -- no references to this person? Why? If it's cited information, we can have it, and there is no reason for it to be removed. Gscshoyru 04:04, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I have neither the time nor the desire to argue with you, especially since I have no idea who you are. Nor do I have any intention of disclosing to you the legal concerns that bear upon this matter. If you continue to "undo" my attempts to have this reference deleted, the Board will refer this matter to the Church's legal counsel and they will take whatever action they deem necessary.


 * If you continue to do so, then you will most likely be unfortunately blocked, and if you edit from other accounts, the page will be protected from editing. Please read up on policy, and leave this article along because of your conflict of interest. WP:LEGAL may also be useful reading, in addition to the other links I gave you.

This matter will now be referred to our legal counsel.

Block notice & article edit update
I've extended that block indefinitely due to the outstanding legal threat. Until that is resolved or retracted I can't really see a case for this block expiring )per our WP:LEGAL policy). Beyond that, I removed the text in question from Little Church Around the Corner because it wasn't in any way verifiable from any reliable sources. I don't know if there was any media coverage of this situation at the time it happened, but if there was and that can be cited, I suspect you may have somewhat of an uphill battle keeping that text out of the article. Without some kind of citation or proof from a legitimate reliable source though, there is no way that text should appear in the article.--Isotope23 talk 13:42, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
