Inclusion of family members' names

edit

Regarding these edits: [1][2][3] ...

WP:BLPNAME says, with my emphasis, "The presumption in favor of privacy is strong in the case of family members of articles' subjects ... The names of ... family members ... may be part of an article, if ... such information is relevant to a reader's complete understanding of the subject".

I assert that the names of Pendlebury's wife and child do not add to the "reader's complete understanding of the subject", neither is well known in their own right, or notable enough for their own article. The presumption in favor of privacy is strong, so the names should be omitted unless there is some specific reason why they should be included. The fact that the information is publicly available is not sufficient justification for including it. Mitch Ames (talk) 10:24, 19 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

WP:BLPNAME also says When the name of a private individual has not been widely disseminated or has been intentionally concealed, ... it is often preferable to omit it - in this case both names are widely disseminated in the media and on social accounts.
The names are also sourced and appear many times. Alex also is well known, regardless of Scott's actions, due to her being a businesswoman and nutritionist. --SuperJew (talk) 14:31, 19 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
I generally don't mind having wife/partner names, but am strongly against the kids names (and DOBs) being included. Yes, they get published at the time, but so probably did yours and mine in the family notices section. If someone wants to find out those details, then sure, they probably could with or without Wikipedia. I don't think we should be making it easier, as there is no really good reason to provide those details. If the kid becomes famous, then you add them then, not when they are minors.

Is Alex notable enough for her own article? Being well-known independently of Scott does not imply that her name adds to the reader's understanding of him. (Especially if the mention of her name doesn't actually tell the reader anything else about her.) However, it might be appropriate to mention her by name along with the fact that they part-own/run the Progression Fitness Club together.
