[edit] Quotation
I think the quotation on your user page should be attributed to somebody, anonymous if nothing else. It looks ambivalent to have a quotation thrown out without reference; it almost communicates plagiarism.

- I removed the quotation marks. Hope that's satisfactory. All the best, --John Foxe 10:55, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Quiverfull article
Any thoughts on the NPOV issue brought up there? CyberAnth 01:58, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
I think it does display NPOV. Of course this is extremely subjective, but I think that it is reasonable for a page to display its subject in the best light while remaining objective, and this article does that as does most other well-written pages I have read. The negative section that talks about "mindguards" especially indicates that this page does not suppress information purely on the basis of contradiction to a point of view. I think I agree with changing the tag. -- Whiteknox 02:14, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
- I appreciate the perspective, bro, especially since the person who made the charge as been silent since making it. I will most definitely fully understand if no, but would you be willing to also state your opinion on the Quiverfull page? I realize the page also needs citations, which I have them but have been stopped up by the dispute. Weasel words will go at the same time. CyberAnth 06:07, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

- I ended up adding lots of cites and removed most WWs tonight. CyberAnth 09:10, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

- By wanting my support did you mean you want me to post on the talk page? I don't think I want to get into making content changes to the article.
- Is the controversy about the article being biased towards QF position or biased against it?
- It doesn't look to me like the person who placed the tag is willing to show his head; have you tried looking up who did it in the history of the page? Maybe you can contact him on his talk page. --Whiteknox 16:34, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mark Sanford
After reviewing the talk page, like you suggested, I decided to remove the "Libertarian" category tag. Perhaps it's not quite accurate after all. Thanks for the input. --JayJasper --Thanks. --Whiteknox 01:55, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
