The NBC Chicago link is odd - he was the victim of a break-in once. That wouldn't give any indication of his notability. Upjav (talk) 16:06, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Page protection

Why is this page protected to prevent vandalism when under “children” there is clearly some vandalism happening? 2001:861:72:CA70:59EB:F485:315F:252D (talk) 09:03, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed that bit of vandalism at least. Endwise (talk) 10:53, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perry is of Greek and Kashmiri descent 81.141.189.124 (talk) 15:08, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Myrealnamm (💬talk · ✏️contribs) at 15:35, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This page should not exist

His spouse should not be listed as "A Woman". Also I don't think this page meets Wikipedia guidelines. Fal2x (talk) 01:52, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is not true. Perry is an alpha male who is married to a human woman. 2600:6C5C:6800:4D9:70B7:2D23:6E59:4FE9 (talk) 01:01, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Stop removing sourced info

For some reason 76.157.230.213 removed chunks from the page that were properly sourced and cited for no reason, including the coverage of Abbasi's controversy from UnHerd. You need to explain these removals, they can't be for no reason. 2607:FEA8:1F9B:6200:DD6E:788B:6AE6:941D (talk) 04:50, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also user Marincyclist keeps just reverting my fixes to 76.157.230.213's multiple vandalism edits. 2607:FEA8:1F9B:6200:DD6E:788B:6AE6:941D (talk) 05:03, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your "fixes" were reverted because you failed to explain your edits and removed content without any explanation. Marincyclist (talk) 05:08, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, compare the versions, it's the opposite, I was putting back the stuff the other guy removed with no explanation (for example the UnHerd quote). I didn't remove any content, I was reverting the page. 2607:FEA8:1F9B:6200:D74:E69:2861:6CE4 (talk) 05:46, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You made many edits. Only one of those edits readded the UnHerd quote. The others removed sourced content. Don't remove sourced content without a valid explanation, and please utilize edit summaries to avoid potential confusion in future. Thanks, Marincyclist (talk) 05:56, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are completely confused. 2607:FEA8:1F9B:6200:D74:E69:2861:6CE4 (talk) 16:14, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I reviewed the edits and I apologize, I made a mistake. Please use edit summaries in future as it makes things a lot less confusing. Thanks, Marincyclist (talk) 06:22, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

On closer inspection, I believe this article fails WP:NBIO. The subject does not have sufficient "significant" coverage in reliable secondary sources. Marincyclist (talk) 05:44, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
