Hi - I've added the AI generated template here, specifically regarding the edits by Ritwik Deuba; other edits by this user have shown indications of possible LLM use in the past, as do these. Thus they need review for accuracy, sourcing issues, possible NPOV/editorializing issues, and the like. Gnomingstuff (talk) 16:59, 3 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Should the article include the supposed incident at Engadine McDonalds when Morrison defecated in his pants? Note: the text is under "Personal life". Jack Upland (talk) 05:30, 31 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Jack Upland: there is no need to take this straight to a full-blown thirty-day formal RfC. I cannot fond any indication that the suggestions at WP:RFCBEFORE have been tried, let alone exhausted. As far as I can tell, this relates to these edits from 5 July 2026 - more than three weeks ago. The content was added without subsequent discussion, nor has anybody attempted to remove it from the article. All I can find is that the person who added it had suggested it on this talk page a few hours earlier, but removed their post the same day (see these three edits) shortly after adding the content to the article.
The paragraph is insufficiently sourced. It starts from a piece in the unreliable Gizmodo about some Twitter stuff that became such a meme that Scomo felt he had to deny it. The matter is in any case insignificant. For these reasons, I think the paragraph should just be removed. Errantios (talk) 11:08, 31 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
Delete. The issue has been discussed for years — see the archives. It's time for a RfC. This is an unencyclopedic trivial rumour. It doesn't belong here. We should make decision here and stop arguing about it.--Jack Upland (talk) 05:12, 1 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
If it's been discussed for years, you should have linked at least some of those discussions, if not all. Remember that an RfC is an open invitation for anybody do drop by and comment, and they should be given sufficient information for them to form an opinion. People coming in cold - like me - should not be expected to go searching. --Redrose64🌹 (talk) 16:55, 3 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
If a reliable source says that a rumour (some fake news) circulated, had no effect and was debunked, why should WP consider it notable? Errantios (talk) 04:36, 3 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Notablity is not the yard stick for inclusion of content in an article about a subject who obviously passes WP:GNG. We should cover it because there is signficant coverage in reliable sources. TarnishedPathtalk04:39, 3 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
I've removed a part of the section of text which read "but insufficient evidence has been found to support or refute this claim". It's clearly a hoax. TarnishedPathtalk09:12, 3 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
