:I have read [[WP:BLP]] and the above discussion. I don't think information on the interview should be included. In 100 years time if this article were to be written to its full potential, the interview probably would not rate a mention. I think that whilst the encyclopaedia is built we should be mindful towards [[WP:RECENTISM]], particularly as it relates to BLP subjects.

::Hi [[U|PNGWantok]], and thanks for taking the time to comment. Even though I didn't start this RFC, I do desire that we come up with the best result. I personally think that the 10-year hurdle suggested in the essay on [[WP:RECENTISM]] would be cleared by Mr. Sorbo's freely-offered statements (it wasn't an interview), but if the consensus (short of Hullaballoo's opinion, since I have no respect for it) is to keep it out, I'm fine with that result as well. Thanks again.

:::Hi [[User:Vertium]], my apologies. I did not realise it wasn't an interview. TBH, I did not look at the information being added as I didn't want it to impact my view. People say many things, and celebrities by their nature often have their comments reported by the media. If this was Angelina Jolie and she was commenting on the situation in Darfur, then it could warrant inclusion because she has a long and notable history in humanitarian causes. If Jolie was instead commenting on the Ferguson standoff it would be a different story. In relation to Sorbo it is more [[WP:NOT|trivial]] in nature. I do understand your viewpoint, and I respect it, but we have a different opinion on this issue I think. If you would like more input from myself, please leave me a message on my talkpage I am happy to do so if required. Thank you.
