Add A Fact: "Conor McGregor welcomes fourth child"

I found a fact that might belong in this article. See the quote below

Enfin, pour cette année 2023, un nouveau garçon vient de rejoindre la famille McGregor, son nom n’a pas encore été communiqué.

The fact comes from the following source:

https://lasueur.com/conor-mcgregror-papa-quatrieme-fois-01-12-2023

Here is a wikitext snippet to use as a reference:

Can new subject heading be included

Under controversies there is multiple sexual assault claims & now a civil case passed. Can a subject heading of sexual violence claims be added to encompass these. It provides more clear accuracy & transparency 2A06:5900:A45:7C00:35D6:6AF3:FA34:7D93 (talk) 01:49, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

It seems logical to group so many similar crimes together. Sex offences. Violence offences. Driving offences. Spideog (talk) 11:34, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Category

I added Category:Irish rapists to the article. It was removed by Nswix because the finding was by a civil court. So, per WP:BRD, we reach "D". I say that the fact that he was found to have raped someone by a civil court and not a criminal court is immaterial. Effectively calling McGregor a rapist is not a breach of WP:BLP and that the category should be restored to the article. Mjroots (talk) 06:25, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Given that there is a subcategory of Category:Irish rapists called Category:Irish people convicted of rape, then yes, he should be added to the former. The trial, and reporting on the trial, outlined what he did (in graphic detail). He should also be added to Category:Irish sex offenders (which I'll now add him to). Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 08:51, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

I note in an edit summary, Nswix said It was a civil suit, thrown out of criminal court. Completely incorrect, and Nswix appears to be unfamiliar with the Irish justice system. The allegation was investigated by Gardaí. They felt there was enough evidence to prosecute, and so referred a file to the Director of Public Prosecutions. Her office decided that there was not sufficient evidence to secure a criminal conviction "beyond all reasonable doubt", and elected not to proceed with a prosecution. Which, as we know, is very common in sexual assault and rape cases. That's a far cry from "was thrown out of criminal court." Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 08:59, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

The case can't have been "thrown out of criminal court" if it never reached the criminal court in the first place. Mjroots (talk) 09:56, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

He was convicted of rape in court and it was reported as such in reliable Irish news media. Spideog (talk) 11:40, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Consensus seems to be for inclusion of the category. I'll add it back. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 23:48, 25 November 2024 (UTC)

Replace the term "rape conviction" with the term "judgement", as he was never convicted as the paragraph implies Discip1ine (talk) 13:50, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

 Done - agree, there was no conviction as it was a civil case, not a criminal case. Mjroots (talk) 17:47, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Jargon re "remanded"

In the Controversies section in the third paragraph under "Driving offences", the word "remanded" was tagged as jargon in the sentence beginning "He has not yet indicated a plea and the judge remanded". This word is frequently used in Irish media about court cases and while it is legal jargon the fact that it is used in media shows it is widely understood. Furthermore, in the previous sentence the phrase "remanded on continuing bail" links to the Wiktionary entry on remand. Should the jargon tag remain or be removed? Autarch (talk) 22:49, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

I'll remove it now. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 12:14, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks! Autarch (talk) 02:57, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

SA

Curious why under controversies a driving offense is the first topic and not How he brutality raped a women. 2401:7000:DD9B:B400:B07E:7A21:D9F0:BB94 (talk) 21:24, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

All of the controversies were added in chronological order, with subsequent driving offences added as they occurred. Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 12:13, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

Cancel culture

Is it really appropriate to link the words "widely condemned" to the "Cancel Culture" page when it's in reference to his partners severing ties with him after he was found liable for rape? I have never seen this on any other page where a person has faced consequences after either being criminally convicted or losing a civil case for sexual assault. 2A01:4B00:8043:D300:C908:D3D8:97EC:87D1 (talk) 12:29, 18 December 2024 (UTC)  Done. Wow! Good catch - removed! Bastun^{Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!} 17:15, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

Mcgregor is a convicted rapist, add this to his BIO and the outline of his case. Its wikipedia, not a PR page. Either you add ALL information or you admit to just be hypocrites. 2001:1C01:1380:3400:252C:FAB8:2809:1A77 (talk) 23:09, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

A case is included in the lead and detailed in Conor_McGregor#Dublin_rape_case and Conor_McGregor#Aftermath. What additional information should be added? LizardJr8 (talk) 23:55, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Cannolis (talk) 03:15, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

A convict is someone who has been found guilty in a criminal court. McGregor did not get tried in a criminal court. 2A0A:EF40:15E:D401:A449:CC61:15BC:29AF (talk) 02:21, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

How is rape controversial?

Why is categorisation of sections in wiki so inconsistent?

Why are allegations and legal outcomes for Conor McGregor listed under a general “Controversies” section? Other notorious individuals like Harvey Weinstein have more specific and objective headings eg. “Sexual Abuse Accusations, Convictions, and Appeals.” The term “controversies” seems to downplay the gravity of the accusations compared to more precise headings directly referencing criminal behavior?

Isn’t Wikipedia meant to represent neutrality, accuracy, and fairness? Using objective and specific language, especially for serious legal matters, ensures clarity and avoids any perception of minimising or trivislising the severity of certain accusations… 86.27.117.163 (talk) 19:01, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Harvey Weinstein is known almost exclusively for his sexual assault accusations. It's so prominent it has it's own page. McGregor was found liable in a civil suit that was dropped from a criminal case. It's apples and oranges. Nswix (talk) 19:20, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
