the record, the concept of
"do no harm" I was presenting to in WP was related to what information we,
as editors, choose to include in biographies of persons. My point was that

"Do no harm" and "do no unnecessary harm" are *vastly* different.
Harm - in any form - no matter how it is phrased - should be unacceptable.
