- I put true and factual information on this page. i have first hand experience with this person and cant site it with any other web site then the one i already used. It was not unsourced or poorly sourced please reconsider. Moria fan 1000 (talk) 01:05, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- It was entirely unsourced, as you provided no sources at all for your edits. Please read Wikipedia's policy on verifiability and Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living people. I'm afraid that "first hand experience" is not good enough to add information to this article. Thank you for understanding. Grachester (talk) 01:07, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

- That "source" [1] didn't even mention Brown, let alone support any of the claims you added to the article. Again, please read, and follow, WP:V and WP:BLP Grachester (talk) 01:13, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia. These edits [2] were very ill-advised. One doesn't mention Moira Brown at all. The other doesn't support any of what you wrote. You *cannot* add information like this to biographies of living people without adequate sources.

- they did mention Moira brown she has two last names and these pages just used the other one. please reconsider getting rid for my edit. my edit has correct information if you just payed more attention to detail you would relies that. Moria fan 1000 (talk) 01:40, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- How would a reader of this article know that Moira Milward is the same person at Moira Brown? How would they know that your claims about Brown are true? They may be true, but the reader has no way of verifying that. We do not allow unverifiable information about living people. Please read WP:V and WP:RS - it is clear that you have not. If you are unwilling to follow these core policies, please do not edit Wikipedia articles. Grachester (talk) 01:42, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- if you look up Moira Milward it comes up with the same person as Moira Brown there for any reader could put two and two together and understand that it is the same person

- Wikipedia does not allow original research, what you call "putting two and two together". But it's worse than that since the Wikiwand link is just a link to the existing article and the LinkedIn profile doesn't claim that Millward and Brown are the same person - Brown isn't even mentioned. This isn't anywhere close to the sort of verifiable, reliable sources you would need to make these changes to the Wikipedia article. Grachester (talk) 01:55, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- can i make a new page just about moira milward and totaly saperated from moria brown? or can i eddit the moria brown pag to chnage it to her respectable last name? Moria fan 1000 (talk) 13:56, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
- I would recommend against starting a new page under the name Moria Milward. What you need are reliable sources that show that Brown changed her name to Milward. This means independent, published sources. For example, if there is a TV, Radio or newspaper piece about Brown, or a published biography of her. Sources like LinkedIn are not reliable - anyone could create a fake LinkedIn page saying anything, so that doesn't allow the ready to verify that it is correct. Good luck, Grachester (talk) 14:04, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
