Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Brianna Wu. ''Please do not insert poorly-sourced allegations, insinuations and conspiracy theories into Wikipedia biographies. If you continue, you will likely be blocked from editing the encyclopedia.''

Brianna Wu
Hi QuantumMass. Under Wikipedia's policies regarding living people, we have to be extremely careful about posting allegations regarding living people, and high quality sourcing is required. While it might be true that there are unsubstantiated allegations against Wu floating around on 8chan and Reddit, they can't be covered here unless they get serious mainstream coverage, and even then we are required to be very careful about whether or not we add them. You won't be able to add those allegations to the Brianna Wu article, and due to the strong policies on the subject, you run the risk of being blocked if you continue to try and add them. - Bilby (talk) 23:08, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
