Talk:John Varty

message: If we check the history of the page, it presented many facts, and evidences of claiming some of his documentary as "frauds" and even information regarding some of his lawsuit with a real tiger conservation project, "Save China's Tigers". This article seems to be extremely bias towards John Varty, and many factual information which does not point to his favors have been "purged" by a user called Sunnette, who happens to be the name of a friend of John Varty in real life. I think this article has to be more factual and less one-sided in order for it to be more credible. It seems that almost none of the text on the page has a cited source. If anyone has question as to why i know so much, this is because i have been to Londolozi 7 times.

message: After seeing a request on the BLP noticeboard, I reviewed the history of this article and saw loads of negative unsourced or poorly sourced content, and an edit war. So I stubbed the article to remove the unsoruced material, and protected the page to stop the edit war. 
Hopefully, the request for help on the BLP noticeboard with attract some additional editors who are experienced with writing about living people. When that happens, and well sourced references are found, then an article rewrite can begin. FloNight♥♥♥♥ 14:39, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
