Duckworth & Roskam

I suggest that you discuss on the talk page before making major changes, such as deleting paragraphs, to controversial articles. — goethean ॐ 14:25, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

With all due respect, Goethean, you don't seem to practice what you suggest. The paragraphs, inappropriate 'controversial articles,' and statements I have removed through the editing process have been to preserve the neutrality of the entry. It is inappropriate to include statements not made by the person for whom the entry was created. It is highly inappropriate to include yellow-page ads of an entrant's law firm when there are public use pictures available on the internet, and you should know better.

My personal political opinions aside, Misplaced Pages does not afford us the luxury of posting anything but the NEUTRAL truth. Statements by campaign staff or national political organizations does not speak to the individual entrant.

The Illinois races are exceptionally ugly this year, and I will not allow Misplaced Pages to be used as propaganda. I am not suggesting that you are actively trying to do so, but I think it is clear to more than just a few people that you allowing a personal bias to influence your prodigious abilities as an editor. As a co-editor and out of respect, I would ask you to take a step back and recognize that your personal bias might be coming into play here. Pete 21:41, 25 October 2006 (UTC)arcayne

There's Help:Contents and Misplaced Pages:Help desk. Let me know if you have any specific questions. — goethean ॐ 14:58, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you, I will likely take you up on that, Goethean. Thank you for your kind offer.Arcayne 08:38, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Arcayne, the vandal's name is User:Joehazelton -- lowercase 'h'.

Thanks for reverting the vandalism at Tammy Duckworth. To revert a page, you can follow the directions Help:Revert. — goethean ॐ 15:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Got here via the talk page for User:75.2.250.145; where you state that User:75.2.250.145 is User:Joehazelton, a "permanently blocked user with a history of unbalanced and flagrant violations of WP policy." User:75.2.250.145 is also causing a bit of a headache on the Talk:Neil Patrick Harris page. Can anything be done about a blocked user resurrecting themselves with an anon account? An RfC, or maybe some admin intervention? Thanks! -- weirdoactor -- 20:18, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Children of Men

Sorry about that.72.196.213.82 19:12, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Agent Cooper's addition wasn't worded as well as it could have been, nor did it appear in the correct section, and I didn't even bother looking at his cited source, however, this type of criticism has appeared and should be represented in the article in some way. —Viriditas | Talk 20:02, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Do you feel more comfortable with the re-wording of the citation? I've honestly never seen the film or the book, but I'd rather transform the citation into something useful than remove it entirely. Of course, I feel that the sole negative citation shouldn't be one of the few in the underdeveloped Reception section. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 00:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
