I just found another string of allegations on Wikipedia that are not documented with inline footnote citations:
In May 2012, Kelley complained to an FBI investigator of being sent harassing emails by an anonymous woman. The FBI investigator was discovered to be an acquaintance who at some point sent her topless photos of himself and was forced off the case for what was termed an obsessive pursuit that caused supervisors to question the investigator's objectivity. Kelley later asked to no avail for the investigation to be stopped citing concerns she and her family might also come under scrutiny. This set off a chain of events that eventually led to the resignation of the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, David Petraeus on November 9, 2012.
The anonymous woman was identified as Petraeus biographer Paula Broadwell, who investigators discovered had been having an affair with Petraeus. During the course of that investigation, the FBI found that there were "thousands of emails" between Kelley and General John R. Allen, Petraeus's successor as top commander in Afghanistan. On November 13, 2012, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said that the nomination of Gen. Allen for the post of Supreme Allied Commander Europe would be delayed.
All this on a BLP that is currently under an "Articles for Deletion" review that is going about 85% in favor of "
Keep".
Still no BLP about Carolyn Doran, though!
I wonder what Jimbo thinks about this very current biography with tons of media sources to reference, but nobody's bothering to cite any of the above. Someone ought to point it out to him, so that he can continue to be educated about how Wikipedia actually works in practice, contrary to his fictional claims:
"Right now we're tightly focused on making sure that, for example, the biographies are well sourced..." --
Jimmy Wales
"We want in the encyclopaedia to publish only reliable information that's confirmed in reliable third-party sources but what's interesting about this is that in the process of writing Wikipedia which we do publicly in an open....the editors need to have open and frank discussions about whether something has been verified or not, whether something is sufficiently confirmed to go in Wikipedia." --
Jimmy Wales
The unsourced tattling presented above is going on, right now, on a Wikipedia biography that will likely be
viewed 30,000 times or more,
today. I really want to know what Jimbo intends to do about it.
