[edit] Sources

You need to read the WP:BLP guidelines. And information that could be seen as libellous needs a source. You have now added sources, so there is no problem but the onus is always on you to add sources to text, not for me to refrain from removing it. Also bear in mind that Wikipedia is not censored, those little "expletive deleted" boxes can go, this is not the Nixon tapes. And finally I would be careful of WP:OWN, I see you have a barnstar for your work on that one article, don't let that make you think that you are the olny editor who is allowed to edit that article. I have no interest in Isiah Thomas, I just went past the article and saw some remarks which stood out as possibly in violation of our policies, so I took them out, as I would do on any article. Remember that when editing an article it is important that the information is backed up otherwise it may go, the quote you have on the page about "I am innocent" has no source, if I were you I would find one or another editor may remove it.
