@freekymage First of all. Do not put your words into my mouth. Secondly.. Reading with understanding doesn't hurt anybody yet.
Cool, they don't have a money, but some unaware people must have planty of for suing some idiot who wasn't even authorized to write something about someone? And you think that's fine.
How about a simple thing called respect against people? Respecting the fact that someone doesn't want such articles in a first place.
Think a little bit before you write next time.

Wikipedia receives hundreds of legal demands every year to remove user-written content.@eff And what protects people from unwanted creation of informations about them? What if someone doesn't want any information about them published on wiki pages? I know a case where an article was written despite the explicit objection of the person about whom it was written. People have the right to object. And they don't even have to explain their decisions. No means no, and that's it. And that should be respected. Firstly should be asked for permission and only then written. Not otherwise.
