Defamatory information. 209.6.155.52 (talk) 15:30, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

It's difficult to help you without more information. What exactly is in error? 331dot (talk) 16:14, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
These are the errors:
1. I am not 38 years-old.
2. I did not graduate from the University of British Columbia and I do not hold a doctorate. I graduated from Episcopal Divinity School with a Masters degree.
3. Who gives the creator of this page permission to talk about my parents? How do they know if both of my parents were Christian?
4. I am not an international journalist and I don't do journalism.
5. I am not actively involved in activism anymore and I don't want anyone to brand me as such.
6. The entire article must be taken down. I advise that its creator go back and do some research if he believes I am desperate to have a Wikipedia page.
7. I was never "homeless at a tender age" Yes, I left my family home early but that does not mean I was homeless in my country.
IF YOU MUST WRITE ABOUT SOMEONE MAKE SURE YOU DO YOUR RESEARCH. 209.6.155.52 (talk) 17:17, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
With respect, Wikipedia summarises what reliable sources say about a subject. Thank you for pointing out some issues with the article, however, we do not respond well to legal threats. I do see some users are currently making some changes to remove uncited information, but things such as your parents being Christian is cited to this source.

I've cut out things you pointed out that I didn't see sources for; the bit about homelessness comes from a post written by yourself in HuffPost. ■ ∃ Madeline ⇔ ∃ Part of me ; 17:42, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
Instead of tossing around the word "defamatory", all you needed to say is "I noticed there are some errors in this article about me. Here's what they are.....". Not every error is an attempt to defame you. We're happy to help if polite requests are made. 331dot (talk) 18:36, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
