Forum:Wikia staff delete article after its subject threatened to sue

Some spanish guy called Ramoncín is sending legal threats to news and humor sites all over the web, claiming their content harm his honor. He managed to shut down a youtube chanel but he lost the trial against the news site 20minutos. Wikia was very quick to delete the article about him on spanish uncyclopedia. So much for Fair Use, First Amendment or any other U.S. law. It seems really easy to intimidate wikia, this guy succeded to do so even overseas.--Rataube 09:02, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

I think the article was not defamatory and Ramoncín has lost several lawsuits. I think the matter should be reconsidered, since this person only has threatened to intimidate without any legal basis exception of intimidation. A court rejected a demand by the SGAE "for trespass on the right to honor" The ruling held that "to prevail freedom of expression." It is a question that is on the street.

Please answer Rataube, never you respond. ref: http://www.20minutos.es/noticia/442875/0/sgae/cnt/ladrones/ --Helmut Newton 20:51, April 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's best to use Special:Contact if you need a reply from staff, especially concerning legal issues, which I'd rather not comment on in public. Angela (talk) 22:16, April 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * Wikia's policies on this sort of thing would be helpful, if some part of the matter can be discussed publicly. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 6:00 AM PST 3 Apr 2010
