Fair and Balanced?

[edit]

As a moderate Republican, I am asking how one can call themselves a conservative, and aspire to be a member of the current Republican party and yet be "fair and balanced"? This isn't a shot, it is a sincere question. Of course it seems to me that anyone wanting to be fair and balanced would be extremely critical of the current Republican Party and its lack of tolerance and fiscal restaint, when at one time both of those were key to the defintion of "Republican".

Are you saying, that despite being a conservative, you are able to set your convictions aside and offer a fair and balanced perspective anyway?

Hello

I have filled out the stub article on the above subject following your AfD nomination to clearly assert his notability. If you now feel there is enough to indeed classify him as notable, kindly withdraw your nomination so we can move to a speedy close. Thanks, Ohconfucius 03:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Biographies of Living Persons WP:BLP requires a higher wikipedia standard since the Siegenthaler Controversy in December 2005. Articles like these involve WP:LIBEL and WP:NPOV It has been 6 months, and wikipedia still has hundreds of potentially libelious articles. Many editors and even administrators are generally unaware of potential defamation either direct or via WP:NPOV. To help protect wikipedia, I feel a large working group of historians, lawyers, journalists, administrators and everyday editors is needed to rapidly enforce policies. I would like to invite you to join and particpate in a new working group, tenatively named Wikipedia:Libel-Protection Unit, a group devoted to WP:BLP, WP:LIBEL and WP:NPOV and active enforcement. From your experience and/or writings on talk pages, I look forward to seeing you there. Crockspot 19:38, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Untagged image

[edit]

An image you uploaded, Image:Brcrest.jpg, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 11:43, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit]

Look, the reason I was telling you to get sources is that I want the article to survive, not because I'm edit warring. There are people out there who spend their time finding articles without sources and nominating them for deletion. They take an extremely dim view of tag removal, as it suggests that the article cannot stand up to scrutiny. Speciate 21:46, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

BLP

[edit]

Hi! I am inviting you to join the discussions here. Here is the link. I am trying to prove to the #1 critic-editor of the subject that the lead section of the Eli Soriano article is POV (not to mention poorly-sourced) and more importantly, libelous. Trust me, it's notable (talk) 08:05, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
