message: I noticed the article is edit locked, with an orphaned sexual harassment statement in the lede, with no additional info in the article.  Since this leaves the reader wondering what the resolution was, perhaps the lede can be changed to say 
 
 Levinsohn has been a defendant in two separate sexual harassment lawsuits during his career, which were both settled by his employers.
Also, ANI requested that any edit warring editors discuss their concerns here on the talk page, so this is as good a place to start as any. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 20:11, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Just read the source (without evaluating its reliableness) wich mentions "lawsuits": one in 2001 that does not mention the result of the case; one in 2006 that was "withdrawn" then refiled in 2007 that was "settled". Did you find a source that reported the disposition of the first case? It also seems like this is three cases?  Some of this just doesn't seem to add up and the longer section in the article doesn't seem to go in to this either. I'm not ever sure this should be in the lede since it isn't derived more from the body.  So I don't think this edit request is "ready to go" and needs more discussion here first. — xaosflux Talk 18:19, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  I also noticed that there's no collaborating info in the article, as is usually required, but that's much more complex an edit request than the simple one I made.  Here's the source.  [].  Since nobody should remove the charges from the lede, since they are accurate and widely reported, at least we can make my change to state the resolution accurately. Or you can wait for who know how long for someone to write an entire section about the accusations. But even then, the lede is incomplete unless you make my edit request. I have no horse in this race and came because I'm stalking the administrator's noticeboard, where a 3RR was reported. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 22:20, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  I've never even looked at this article before, only came because of the  summoning - but a quick look at the history reveals that this lede section has been part of the edit war - so WP:BRD applies, time for discussion (and additional edit requests shouldn't be opened until the discussion is done - kind of the point of the edit war stoppage with protection). — xaosflux Talk 22:30, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  Agree about the discussion needed - hopefully it will start soon.  But until then, it seems incomplete and unsatisfying to leave the vague statement in the lede without info about how the charges were resolved.  Saying the charges were settled is of course a negative thing, implying guilt, so there's no attempt to whitewash here - just to make the article more useful. As it is now, for all the reader knows, he was acquitted or found guilty, two extremes.  My middle ground keeps it balanced. Just my 2 cents. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 22:38, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

My conflict of interest is that I work for Maven right now, so should not be editing the page myself. Vipul (talk) 18:43, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
