Wrp103, the Joseph Smith, Jr. page represents a historically inaccurate and should be reviewed by an expert on the subject. Many statements in the article are embellished for a reason I can only presume is to elevate the status of Joseph Smith Jr. as more than human – perhaps a prophet to the Mormon cult. As wikipedia is to keep a neutral and encyclopedic approach to all articles, I feel this article violates those two most basic ideas and is incorporating a cultic bias into the text. As a wikipedian, I am truly embarrassed that wikipedia entertains such enormous allegations without question. --156.56.8.165 05:02, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Replacing one POV version with another POV version doesn't create a NPOV article. Deleting sections you don't agree with, and adding POV commentary violates wikipedia policy. If you believe certain statements are in error, include a {{fact}} tag requesting a citation. wrp103 (Bill Pringle) 14:41, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
