{{Reflist|refs=
<ref name="Note 1">When reviewing any submission about a living person, remember that the policy on [[WP:Biographies of living persons|Biographies of living persons]] includes:
<blockquote>"Contentious material about living persons… that is unsourced or poorly sourced — whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable — should be '''removed immediately and without waiting for discussion''.'"</blockquote>
:If the submission is a [[WP:BLP|BLP policy]] violation, '''decline it as such, ensuring you select the checkbox to blank the submission''' using {{tlx|afc cleared}} &ndash; this is done as a courtesy to the subject of the submission. [[WP:ATTACKPAGE|Attack pages]] and ''entirely negative'' unsourced BLP are distinct from straightforward BLP violations. They should '''not''' be declined as BLP violations, non-notable, or lacking sources. Instead, they should be declined using the specific decline reason for vandalism/negative blp/attack page and tagged for immediate deletion with {{tl|db-g10}}. This can be done using [[WP:TW|Twinkle]], if you have this gadget installed.</ref>}}
