Content dispute - financial dealings edit

There is currently a content dispute that is ongoing since a few days ago. Pinging @Damage868 for the removal of sourced content. Should we keep it or not? ToadetteEdit (chat)/(logs) 17:10, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

I've removed the section pending discussion. As I described in my edit summary, the section as it was worded did not comply with the biographies of living persons policy - the section title "financial impropriety" did not follow WP:NPOV, it was worded in such a way as to suggest that the allegations were proven when in fact they have not been tested in a court of law, it contained virtue statements which did not seem to be supported by the source, and the section seemed to be based on one source which was also the source making the allegations. Most likely this should not be included here at all per WP:BLPCRIME, certainly not without independent sources, but please discuss. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:41, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
So what's next, we remove allegations against Assad and Putin because they haven't been tested an court? As I said, these allegations and supporting documentation are widespread, and if you google any of them you will find a multitude of alternative sources.

This matter has been tested in court; an injunction application was made buy Cummings against an opposition member to prevent him from repeating these allegations but this application was rejected. Websurfer868 (talk) 23:13, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
