| == POV pushing on outlaw motorcycle clubs == | |||
| I appreciate all the great additions you've made to Misplaced Pages's motorcycle articles recently, and I know you're still getting the hang of how to edit. But I need to request that you cease trying to whitewash the criminal nature of the outlaw motorcycle club articles. When a club is only in the news for crime, and when law enforcement authorities have identified them as a criminal enterprise, then that's what we call them. When you change that to say "some members have been convicted of crimes" you sound like you are their defense lawyer. Lawywer's like to say "my client ''allegedly'' stole, the police ''alleged'' there was a conspiracy, my client is ''accused'' of..." blah blah. Misplaced Pages doesn't have to follow those rules and speak in weasel words. We can tell it like it is, without legal disclaimers.<P>We get paid flacks from the marketing department of various companies always coming to Misplaced Pages trying to put their PR into articles, and what you're doing is motorcycle gang PR. It's called ]. It's fine if you're talking about a club that is not known to be criminal, but almost every one of the ] wouldn't even have a Misplaced Pages article except that they are ] for crime. Just say what the sources say; don't act as the club's PR flack.<P>If this does not stop, we will have to initiate a community discussion at ] to try to come to a consensus. That's not really a bad idea anyway -- several editors in the past have edit warred over the same thing, and it needs to be cleared up. --] (]) 02:18, 26 May 2012 (UTC) | |||

Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
