Don't do that again. Per Wikipedia's policies of living people, biographical information that is not widely known must be sourced to reputable sources. Dragons flight 19:42, 27 January 2007 (UTC)


 * To clarify, biographical details should be based on material appearing secondary sources (newspapers, magazines, etc.) and not what people can discover through digging through primary sources. This policy exists to protect the privacy of the subjects of our articles.  Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a news organization.  It is not our place to reveal "new" facts, no matter how compelling.  Dragons flight 19:49, 27 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Once published in reliable secondary sources, it would certainly be appropriate to include the performer's real name. Dragons flight 21:09, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Passive smoking
Re : User:MastCell acted properly in removing that material. Please be aware that article talk pages are for discussing specific improvements to articles, not for personal editorializing on the topic, declaiming the inadequacies of Wikipedia, and criticizing its editors.
