"Unilateral" is rather meaningless here, as often when it is used on Wikipedia. If by "unilateral" you mean that no one agrees with it, that is clearly not the case here. If by "unilateral" you mean that the action was taken by one person, that is necessarily always the case; one agent, one edit. If by "unilateral" you mean that there was not a formal proposal on the talk page followed by 3 weeks of long-winded discussion, that is not necessary for making a change to a policy page; this section follows directly from Wikipedia's policies on neutral point of view and biographies of living persons, and is also implied by the rest of what Wikipedia is not, and notability. This is not some random pseudo-troll trying to remake Wikipedia in his own image through drive-by edits.

I have half a mind to revert him for his unjustified, unilateral change of policy. ~~~~
