well lets get ther record straight. The harold shipman page already stated he was jewish, well before i came along. I put it back in, after it was removed with no explanation (first time). I didn't add it. It was then removed repeatedly. the few references that are available (not usable in wikipedia) such as letters to newspapers on websites ( i have given the link here already) state he was jewish as his mother was a jewish asylum seeker. Whether it should be included on his page is debatable, because you would then have to go through all the pages where criminal and muslim are put together and ban the editor of that page indefinately.
Thankfully there is NO WIKIPEDIA policy that states this is grounds for an indefinate ban???
The issue here was not my obsession with putting it back in, but someones obsession with taking it out.
Why is showing Shipman's religion relevant or important?
Don't we usually mention people's religion in their biography if it's known and sourceable (along with race/ethnicity, nationality, place of birth, etc.)?
