Talk:Rob Grill

message: is sanitizing this article of any mention of Grills arrest,  in several cases calling this information "defamatory"   and undoing formatting for reasons unknown. The given reason is this information is "info that is not appropriate in a bio.". I think the problem here is that the anon editor wants this to be a fan page rather than a Wikipedia article.
This editor has also deleted similar information from the The Grass Roots article. Since that article is not a biography, I don't think it is necessary to include Grill's arrests there. However, deletion from this article is unjustified and POV. / edg ☺ ☭ 04:59, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Copied from the BLP Notice Board -
: I think edg is really out of line here. A cursory review of the sources provided indicates that this matter directly relates to a medical condition. Medical records fall under Wikipedia's presumption in favor of privacy. This individual appears to have left public life long ago. Details regarding his injury and medical records should be treated with the utmost discretion and sensitivity.
: I'm even more concerned that when edg doesn't get the answer he wants, his next suggestion is to have the article deleted "as not sufficiently important, a fan/promo page squatting on Wikipedia's servers but not worth maintaining." Seems to me that this user may have a COI of some sort regarding the article's subject. I think his or her contributions warrant monitoring. Cleo123 (talk) 08:24, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Replied to there. Thank you for getting back to us on this. A response including a bad faith assumption against me is still much better than the no-reply-at-all which I had at this point come to expect. Per your advice, I won't attempt to restore this information to this article. / edg ☺ ☭ 09:49, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  You're welcome. For the record, I am not assuming any bad faith on your part. You asked for an objective outside opinion from a biography project member and I've done my best to give you a neutral, objective evaluation based on all the evidence available to me. I'm sure you are a very fine editor. Unfortunately, sometimes when we are involved in a dispute on an article that isn't seeing a lot of outside traffic, tensions can simmer quickly and perspectives can become skewed. It's stressful "fighting the good fight" alone on some page that's low on the radar screen. It happens to the best of us - myself included. That's why I often step back and take a little break when I see editorial disputes beginning to escalate. You did the right thing in taking a break and requesting outside opinions. Thanks for your cooperation in this matter. Happy Editing and Best Regards! Cleo123 (talk) 22:40, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

text:  One more thing, this article currently says "Years active = 1966 – Present". If Grill has "left public life long ago", this might need to be clarified in the article. I don't know where to find this information. / edg ☺ ☭ 10:03, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The discography contains solo records as well as those made as member of Grass Roots. The latter ones are already listed in the article on the Grass Roots. Apart from that, in the list in this article, the credits aren't included. I find this all very confusing and not what I expect from a Wikipedia article. 83.85.143.141 (talk) 20:25, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
