'''Respect other people's privacy when including information ~~about them~~.'''

'''Respect other people's privacy when including information.'''

~~The identities~~ of individuals should not be included unless at least one of three criteria are met:

Identifying information of living individuals should not be included unless at least one of three criteria are met:

# the ~~identifying~~ information is unambiguously public and of nontrivial encyclopedic value (e.g. a speaker at Commencement)

# the information is unambiguously public and of nontrivial encyclopedic value (e.g. the name of a speaker at Commencement)

# the individual provides explicit permission for that context (e.g. they contribute the identifying information themself)

# ~~such documentation~~ would ~~have~~ little social consequence (e.g. the individual and their cohort are ~~no longer alive~~)

# the inclusion would result in little social consequence (e.g. the individual and their cohort are dead)

~~Requests~~ for the removal of identifying information must be fulfilled ~~when these criteria do not apply~~.

When none of these criteria apply, requests for the removal of identifying information must be fulfilled.
