Lead paragraph has some POV problems. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 23:52, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I noticed that too. Sorry about that. I was just quoting how he's described in A History of Ashland, Kentucky 1786 - 1954. It seemed to make a point of him being fiery and unpopular, yet also one of the greatest mayors of Ashland. I tried to make it as NPOV as I could with the source material. --Parodist (talk) 00:09, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You could do this: "Historian John Doe, in the book A History of Ashland, wrote that Salisbury was "considered needlessly antagonistic to the popular feeling." " Or something like that. Remember that you can't quote something else word-for-word without some soft of attribution, or otherwise it could be considered a copyright violation. "Holler" if you need help. It seems Salisbury was quite the character, as is frequently the case with Kentucky politicians of yesterday and today. :-) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 04:04, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
