*"Editing BLP's irresponsibly actually makes the subject of the biography less free since the subject would become affected by forces (i.e. the irresponsible revisions) outside of his or her control."

I'm unsure whether or not the Foundation has answered that question, but if reviewers are, then they share some of the liability when something like this inevitably happens. —<font color="228B22">[[User:Jéské Couriano|''Jeremy'']] [[User talk:Jéské Couriano|v^_^v]]</font> ^{<small>[[Special:Contributions/Jéské Couriano|Bori!]]</small>} 19:08, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

*"Effective tools to combat persistent vandalism, BLP violations, and other unconstructive edits already exist, and they work well; other options have been identified but not actively considered." Since this point was brought up, what's wrong with the [[WP:Edit filter|edit filter]]? Where has [[User:Cluebot|Cluebot]] seriously erred?
