Please cite your sources[edit]

The following line from the main article needs a reference:

"In 2008, it was discovered that she had a lengthy criminal record. Her record includes arrests for drug possession, corruption of a minor, and fraud."

I have moved it to the talk page because of the election. Restore it once it can be verified. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.214.48 (talk) 01:42, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Opinions need attribution[edit]

I've removed the statement that Cr Hayes developed an efficient transport system at the lowest cost etc. If this opinion has been expressed by someone significant, for example a dean of planning at a Brisbane university, then the fact that that person expressed it may be included in Wikipedia. If it is the opinion of the author, it has no place in an encyclopaedia article. Thisrod 08:28, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
