Quoting Fred Bauder fredbaud@fairpoint.net:

which contains the language:
"Content has been removed from this article because of a dispute over the legality of its inclusion, and so the article may not meet normal Wikipedia standards. Please see the discussion on the talk page."
Raises some interesting questions. "Normal Wikipedia standards" permit violations of Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons? Do not take malice into account? I don't think so.
Focus on that word "malice"; that is the legal black hole which will produce serious liability.

Um, Fred, I'm confused by this statement. The actual malice standard is a standard which is only relevant in the United States and only the standard for public figures. William Pietri's proposed template doesn't address what country or standard is precisely in use. And Pietri's template doesn't even address that the issue is libel. So what precisely are you saying?
