It needs to be clear up and down the line that the

The other solution is to stop publishing biographies of living
persons, or at least to offer subjects deletion on request.
By hosting living bios, and by inviting anyone in the world to edit
them, we're encouraging bad editing in a quantity we have no hope of
controlling.
A strict approach to not allowing article subjects to edit articles
about themselves only compounds the problem.
