I'm utterly new to editing wikipedia so apologies if I do this wrong as I don't know what to do with the references. Anyway introduction has squashed on the end 'he is gay' with two references. This seems utterly out of place; would one ever right at the end of a heterosexuals introduction "he is straight"? Going to remove it, but I don't know how to correct the two references which will be orphaned. BeardedChimp (talk) 10:11, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think I've done that right, I deleted the two references that followed the text, I hope that was the best way to do it. BeardedChimp (talk) 10:16, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Did he sue the nuncio, as currently stated, or the Pope himself? Here it says it was the Pope :/ Malick78 (talk) 22:58, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't my opinion. It was reported as a illegal in the Irish Times. My bad on using in correct citation https://www.irishtimes.com/news/politics/amnesty-international-ordered-t:o-return-donation-from-billionaire-george-soros-1.3320638. Gript meets standard journalistic standardsAerchasúr (talk) 22:16, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, it is your opinion. The word "illegal" is not used in either the Indo article you previously cited in the article, or in the Irish Times article you now claim says it was illegal. There was a legal dispute, which is a different thing. This was heard in the High Court in 2018, and involved Amnesty International and SIPO, not O'Gorman directly, who was only involved in his Amnesty role. Why would we include this in his BLP? I mean, I suppose we could include it, if it was neutrally worded, and we mention that Amnesty won the case? Once again, it has already been discussed, but gript is not regarded as a reliable source on Wikipedia. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 22:33, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gript meets all WP policy such as

• My understanding is that Gript does not meet
  WP:RS. Checking outbound links shows one usage only, and that's on a talk page. Gript has its own well-known POV - they announce it themselves in their "About" page, so it's not going to meet WP:RS - Alison ^❤ 02:38, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply

Correct, Alison - question asked and answered here. Aerchasúr is aware of this now, so hopefully will stop adding it to articles. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 11:20, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That isnt correct. It meets

You might want to make the above arguments at the

Reliable Souces Noticeboard as you seek to have it close down, so. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 14:28, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply
