Controversy section edit

A "Controversy" section has been added and removed from the article a few times over the last few days. My opinion, and I think that of the other editors removing the material, is that there is not yet enough sourcing to meet the requirements of the Wikipedia policy on writing about living people. That page says Remove immediately any contentious material about a living person that ... is unsourced or poorly sourced ... relies on self-published sources. That means that we are prohibited by policy from including controversy sections based on chatter on social media. Unless and until the issue is covered by a reliable secondary source such as a mainstream news outlet then it can not go in the article.

@Elihanson98: If you still think that the article should contain a Controversy section please join the discussion here and explain why this material does not violate the policy I linked above, rather than adding it to the article again. Also pinging the other editors who removed the material: @Primrood and Leaf Gravel. Thank-you. Wham2001 (talk) 10:52, 26 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
