@Wee Curry Monster: WP:BLP The problem with reverting my addition to the statement about this living person is that it is based on a reliable source, namely citation (2). That same source is used to verify the other information about him. All I did was complete the information provided by the citation. To leave it half finished is misleading and potentially biased. If that citation is used then all the information it provides should be used, or, none of it because it is an unreliable source. Which is it?

[1] Your own edit put a citation needed on the end of the sentence and your separated the cite from what it was originally added to support. WP:BLP actually requires editors to remove uncited and potentially inflammatory material from BLP. An editors whose been here since 2014 really should know better. I'm not sure what the sentence you wish to add lends to the article but you need to write in a more professional manner and cite it properly if you wish to add it back.

Thank you for your reply. I did not remove the citation from the statement it was designed to support. I expanded the statement to include all of what the citation said (why he had to get married in Argentina). Not expanding the statement is a misleading use of the citation. None of this breaches WP:BLP unless the cited article is of low quality, in which case the whole statement should be removed. I did use a separate sentence rather than extending the original sentence. This was simply for style but the second sentence is clearly linked to the first sentence, so there can be no doubt that the citation (2), which comes after, not before, my addition, relates to both sentences. It is hard to see I have separated citation (2) from the statement is was designed to support, as you claim. I used [clarification needed], not [citation needed] as you state, meaning my addition was not my opinion or not simply gossip. Clarification is, in my opinion, needed, because the article seems to minimise the importance of still being married, something it should not do without providing further information to clarify why it does that.

OK sorry I misread the citation needed piece. You did separate the cite from the sentence, you should have re-used the cite again. AFAIR Maria wasn't recognised as a spouse, hadn't naturalised and as a foreign citizen wasn't entitled to free health care. She would have had to cover the cost of maternity care in the Falklands. Some felt they were being over zealous and of course the press in Argentina lapped it up. I think the article may mislead slightly he met and later married Maria, I don't think they were married when Jack was born. WCMemail 21:44, 11 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
