Scandals[edit]
The use of the word "scandal" in any context in Wikipedia is pov. Great for tabloids and blogs. Terrible for a publication which is supposed to be neutral. This should be dropped. Overlaps other categories anyway. Student7 19:50, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- No, not where the usage is widespread in the media. A scandal is an event. Whether the accusations or actions prove to be true or false is neither here nor there. As long as there are adequate third-party citations the term is perfectly fair. Pyrope 18:12, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
Bill Clinton´s impeachment trial[edit]
You have not included the most famous sex scandal in the last years, the Clinton-Lewinsky affair. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.134.126.129 (talk) 15:34, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
Bill Cosby[edit]
Why is Bill Cosby on the list? There are no details of any sex scandal involving him on the link? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Surfingus (talk • contribs) 15:45, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
- This is not a great category. Until we get rid of it, we are more like "People" or "National Enquirer" rather than an encylopedia.
- To answer the question, it is real easy to get on the list. I believe Cosby had a child by a woman, not his wife, or was accused of doing so. Student7 (talk) 20:50, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Assault scandals[edit]
Let's make an effort to remove from this category pages that are about rape or child abuse. These aren't "sex scandals," but crimes. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 14:50, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
