Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Jean-Marie Speich. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please stop continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Jean-Marie Speich, without resolving the problem that the template refers to. This may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. Paul  Bradbury 11:03, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove the maintenance templates from Wikipedia articles without resolving the problem that the template refers to, as you did at Jean-Marie Speich. Paul  Bradbury 11:05, 17 August 2015 (UTC) Despite the bulk of reference materials cited, it is observable that certain contributors are aggressively trying to place undue tags in this article.

Some claim that knowing (a close relationship with) the subject personally, would be tanamount to serious violation against being objective in writing about the person in question. This will be true if a contributor includes information that are unsubstantiated with suitable reference materials. However, it seems more biased if one deletes contirbutions of wikipedians without substantial support to contrary claims, at least by pointing out objective reference materials; or worse, to places tags for some kind of paranoid reason. It is an insult to sensibilities of contributors who include information substantiated by citations, when such presumptive tags and comments are stamped on wikipedia articles.

On the otherhand, contributors who know the subject personally are more knoweledgeable about this subject.

For this reason, I remove the tag you placed on 17 August 2015.--Northern Lights 2000 (talk) 11:06, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
