Minority report from the US Senate is unreliable?[edit]

Is a U. S. Senate Minority Report "unreliable"? Nsaa (talk) 15:53, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Complete pile of twaddle" would be a more accurate description William M. Connolley (talk) 15:55, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure if we shall discuss politics here? Nsaa (talk) 15:59, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I will suggest that if this source is not appropriate, it's best that someone make a request at WP:RS/N or at least give some refs. to prior discussions supporting the view that it's a "unreliable" source (i.e. not WP:RS) to state that he is on this list. Nsaa (talk) 16:02, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you started it. Anyway: no, its not an RS for anyone's views in a BLP-type situation. So I've removed it. It is true that he is listed in it, but then again so are several people who clearly don't belong and have asked to be removed. Anyway, that report purports to merely summarise views listed elsewhere - so anything in there should be findable from its true source William M. Connolley (talk) 16:24, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please take it to WP:RS/N ... Nsaa (talk) 16:26, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually that would be your task. There is absolutely no indication of oversight - several of the scientists have tried to get off the list etc. etc. All => Non-RS. And when we are talking BLP material - then it certainly is not Ok, to leave it. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 16:45, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nsaa has just blindly reverted, alas William M. Connolley (talk) 21:29, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Who is removing sourced material "blindly"? Not me. You and Kim has not given one diff or on ref. to your claims about the source being not WP:RS. Please provide that Before you go on disturb the article like you do. Nsaa (talk) 22:00, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Putting stuff in bold face is always such a convincing logical argument William M. Connolley (talk) 22:02, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Much of the section was based on unreliable blog sources, some of which were no longer online. The paper gives no indication of whre it was presented or formally published, we'd need a secondary source showing notability. The "700 scientists" list is very questionable, as the CEI investigation has shown. So, removed these unreliable or questionable sources per WP:BLP requirements. . dave souza, talk 17:40, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
