Of course, and that's why we have other rules which moderate the other rules. And the BLP policy itself is a rule. However if a piece of evidence is both verifiable, and widely reported and yet negative about a person, and that person vociferously objects to it's inclusion... than what? That is the problem here. We should not white-wash a piece of negative, verifiable, widely reported bit simply because it might affect a person, or even if they claim it does or has. We're not the nicey-nice patrol and shouldn't be forced to become it. We're encyclopediasts and sometimes you have to say that Hitler was bad.
Hitler's a BLP?
Man, my education sucks.
