Exclusion request

The subject of this article has requested personal exclusion. If there is a reason not to grant this request, please make it known within 24 hours. --GreenReaper(talk) 13:46, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to be a pain, but is it okay to change my mind? I'd like to keep the article, but is there anyway the history could be cleared? -Bai
Is there specific personal information (like location) that you wish removed? We can remove the text for all the revisions that contain it (and any edit summary text that mentions it). --GreenReaper(talk) 12:42, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Location, any reference to me as a person, date of birth etc. I just want what I've left on the page as it is now up, really, if that's possible

If you want a place where you can describe your character, that is what your homepage is for. A wiki page is intended to be publicly editable as far as possible, and so we do not offer pages editable only by the subject (we tried this once, it didn't work out as we had hoped).
We can protect your identity to a reasonable level, including the removal of location and date of birth on request, but forbidding others to make any reference to you as a person gets a bit too broad. You are a person, and this article is also about that person. For example, if you were an artist, it would be reasonable to give a description of your art style, cited influences, etc. - the sort of things you wouldn't put in a friends-only post. If this is unacceptable to you, exclusion is the option we offer. --GreenReaper(talk) 13:03, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

I meant just what's in the history really, I doubt other people will add to this, anyway, and if they happen to refer to me I don't really mind. I just want all the personal stuff about how I chose Bai as my fursona, my fandom involvment etc. from the history gone.. D;

I've reviewed the revisions and I think that's OK. As all revisions (including the initial article started 29 January 2009) contain personal information in one form or another, I have deleted them, but prior editors have been noted in the current history. --GreenReaper(talk) 13:34, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

That's fine, thank you so much for your help, you've been great :) Bai
