Requested move

Can some admin please help me change Missy Francis toMelissa Francis?I had attempted to do it but it stopped me. I don't know how to contact an admin or propose an article title change. Some idiot wanted to use her child name to name the article.I had seen a YouTube clipin whichHoward Sternslammed Francis in what allegedly got the info in this article. She also apparently is against Wikipedia, and I am too, and I would like the title to change to Melissa Francis so there isn't any issues publically. She's a respectable journalist and therefore the article should be change dramatically. This will be my last edit on Wikipedia.Steven312 03:05, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Publishing Rumors as Encylopedic Information?

Regarding the alleged reason for subject's absence from television appearances: Is it now an acceptable Wikipedia standard to publish unconfirmed biographical information so long as the conjecture can be cited by a notable publication (even though cited material is not verified fact but publication's own speculation based on anonymous third-party assertions)? I know such practice has long been acceptable in news and gossip publishing, but for Wikipedia? Does "it was reported" or that something "likely" happened have any place in an encyclopedic article?
