Article on Jimmy Carter's Palestine Peace not Apartheid

You wrote:

I was hoping you might weigh in on a dispute between myself and NYScholar on the Palestine Peace not Apartheid discussion page. The dispute is summarized under discussion section 19, "Criticism vs. Carter's response." Up until now the discussion has been a back and forth between me and NYScholar, so it would probably help if a few other people weighed in. Your thoughts are appreciated.

I'm not currently interested in wading into more controversial articles in areas where I am moderately knowledgable but not expert. I suggest that you post notes on the talk pages of any appropriate WikiProjects. At least one relevant project would be Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Jewish History, but I imagine that if you look through the list there will be others. - Jmabel | Talk 17:59, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Deleting sourced info and pushing the CAMERA POV

Please don't delete reliably sourced balance with edit summaries such as ""This section isn't for comments about CAMERA." If CAMERA is making a claim, that section is the appropriate place for reliably sourced balance. You also seem intent on inserting the CAMERA POV throughout this encyclopedia article, and others. While CAMERA may certainly wish to portray themselves a certain way, for tax purposes or for whatever reason, an encyclopedia describes an organization based on what reliable sources say. Eg, it is valid to describe CAMERA as pro-Israel, based upon overwhelming sources using that description, and it is valid to describe CAMERA as supporting a boycott--in both these instances, you seem intent on inserting repeatedly CAMERA's own, somewhat self serving formulations, rather than what is in reliable sources. Please try and familiarize yourself with WP:NPOV and other guidelines regarding these issues. Boodlesthecat (talk) 20:30, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Articles should be a)fair and accurate, and b)well written. Moreover, wikipedia articles should be bound by one standard. The changes that you have been pushing move the article farther and farther from these goals.
