[edit] Confidentiality
Removing data which is incorrect due to confidentiality requirements...see http://www.census.gov/prod/cen2000/doc/sf1.pdf page 8-3. I did a quick Google after seeing there had been a controversy, but my search found nothing other than this article about it. The link cited seems to suggest that information about single individuals is not possible, even in this case. -- Cafemusique 11:42, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- There is an article that someone archived about the town's resident. Given what's in that article, is it appropriate to include information about her on Wikipedia? --Idont Havaname 03:49, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
- Just because it's available online doesn't mean that it needs to be repeated here. The information on her mental disorder, marital problems and interest in moving are personal in nature and irrelevant to the description of city. However, since some people may be interested in the story, including a link seems a good compromise. Deadsalmon 00:25, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Administrator help - article title change
I have been trying to clear up the 'Hibberts' stuff. All the names possible were linked together to point to'Hibberts'. Wrong, there is no Hibberts, although the actual geographic designation, Hibberts Gore, may sometomes be called Hibberts - this a referral of that search term is reasonable. I did move 'Hibberts' to 'Hibberts Gore'. Fine as far as it went. But I cannot move the name to 'Hibberts Gore, Maine' because that article exists. It shouldn't. It exists only as a redirect of 'Hibberts' to 'Hibberts Gore, Maine'. Correct would be for 'Hibberts Gore, Maine' to be the new name of 'Hibberts Gore' and said redirect be fixed. I see no way that I can do this.
Next, Hibberts Corner. It is a wide place in the road, not the Gore, some 15 miles away. I entered it only to satisfy redirects in Wiki. It should be expunged, in all its ramifications.
Apologies for all the 'Hibbert'ing in this message, but it is a mixed up very negligable bit of Wiki, hardly worth bothering with, execpt for accuracy. And what I say is accurate, I live some 50 miles south of the Gore and have known of it all my life. The statement about geographic designation is correct, the Gore is how it is noted on maps of the state. --Dumarest 11:36, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hello, please use Wikipedia:Requested moves for requesting a move that cannot be done without admin help. Please also make sure you have Verifiable sources at hand to support the move. Cheers, Tangotango 11:44, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- I have done that. Now what? Wait? The removal page indicates a discussion of the purpose of the move on the talk page of the item being moved, but no such event[s] have happened. And the simple move does not expunge 'Hibberts Corner' which is a negligable item and may well not deserve Wiki presence. That is not a move but a deletion, not in my power. --Dumarest 16:14, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
