Caroline ran an apparently "bizzare" tumblr, and was in a polygamous relationship with others involved in FTX. 2600:1000:B03A:3D13:314A:3331:41D0:5E1F (talk) 15:19, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

We don't have enough citations for this claim from reliable sources. Molochmeditates (talk) 21:03, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
I actually mentioned that she identified as polyamorous in the article but another editor felt that the citation was weak and removed it. I think it could be put back now we have a better source from The Guardian. (Alex Hern is a great reporter, but in this case he really didn't need to do more than look at backups of her Tumblr.) Although I know a lot of people are having a lot of fun on Twitter with the idea that the company's management was one big polycule, I haven't seen any reliable sourcing to that specific effect, and I wouldn't support including it in the article.

Incidentally, this is giving me the horrible realisation that we're going to have a big discussion at some point about if various cryptocurrency websites are reliable sources. Hopefully someone will steal it all before then and then we can forget about the topic. Blythwood (talk) 22:05, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
Crypto is still under general sanctions, see WP:GS/CRYPTO. If CoinDesk isn't considered an RS, most other crypto news sites won't either. Molochmeditates (talk) 23:10, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
I concur. The bad news is that separating the wheat from the chaff is problematic; the good news is that we don't have to. Not only is there the financial press, there's the peer-reviewed (and aptly named) Ledger, the next issue of which focuses on blockchain technology/infrastructure. As for Caroline Ellison, we wait on reliable sources. Like her attorney Stephanie Avakian. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-12-10/caroline-ellison-hires-sec-s-former-top-crypto-cop-for-ftx-probe?sref=MTy2GeXk kencf0618 (talk) 14:44, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Remove vandalism

Can someone revert this edit? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Caroline_Ellison&diff=1128967620&oldid=1128967218 It breaches Wikipedia's neutrality. Also interesting the edit was by a registered account, as usually it's IP edit behaviour. 119.18.1.17 (talk) 23:24, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
