I've created a small guide to editing articles about living people, with a focus on sport people (and Australian Paralympians specifically). If anyone has any feedback on the attached file, that would be really great. I wanted to try to cover issues that tend to be the biggest pit falls in terms of trying to edit articles about living people. The only area that, being self critical, I think may need work is the photographs part... but maybe that can be fixed by linking to another guide? there is a lot more out there regarding uploading pictures than BLP editing.
Hi Laura, I am going through it now and will email you a pdf with sticky notes directly :-) Great job! I was so happy to hear that the paralympics project is happening!
Cheers, Jutta
