Neutrality dispute[edit]

I am disputing the neutrality of this article because it may not be written from a neutral point of view. The potential bias mainly stems from the choice of words used to describe Jepsen’s state legislative and legal accomplishments. Examples include:

"Jepsen also successfully fought special interests to ensure gun safety ..."
"During the height of the National Rifle Association's political power, Jepsen became a national leader against the NRA and for gun control."
"Jepsen led the effort that put the rights that women earned through Roe v. Wade into state law."
"He supported ground-breaking health insurance reform to improve what should have been covered services for mental illness and emergency room conditions."
"As Senate Majority Leader, Jepsen championed several new laws that leveled the playing field and took in entrenched interest groups."
Non-neutral words such as "championed" appear often throughout the article.

Overall, this doesn’t appear to be an extreme case of bias, but the article as a whole may be overly promotional in George Jepsen’s favor. --Sgt. R.K. Blue (talk) 03:48, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sooty Six[edit]

Hello, As one of the lead organizers of the Sooty Six power plant clean-up campaign and therefore intimately knowledgeable with the progression of the campaign, I am considering establishing a wikipedia page on this topic.
