[edit] Neutrality

There have been no recent edits except to upload a picture by way of authorizing its use. And not a particularly complementary or promotional one. He seems to have left the article alone for others to edit.

Also, this guy is, according to Talk:Jim Harris (politician), seemingly at odds with an entire Canadian national political party's former leadership, which seems intent on kicking at his credibility. Given that they have budgets to pay people to write trash about others and post it to Wikipedia, and that lone wolf municipal councillors don't, criticism of Di Iorio should probably be extra heavily scrutinized in order to ensure his opponents don't swamp the article someday. Be wary of his political opponents doing this "neutrality check", they have way more money and time to do it than he could. Whistleblowers tend to be unpopular.

The previous entry sounds autobiographical and its neutrality is questionable. The notion that a national Canadian political party is 'intent on kicking' the credibility of a lowly councillor is strange if not delusional.

I'd say the neutrality of the (now) previous comment is questionable since it is an unsigned entry from a user (IP 74.121.75.98) who hasn't made a single other real entry to Wikipedia. Quite possibly an agenda there. Regardless, I think the first person was only pointing out that a couple of years ago there was a well-documented public quarrel between Elio Di Iorio and Jim Harris and his "camp" - not the entire national party or even the entire national GPC council as (intentionally?) misinterpreted by 74.121.75.98. As a result, negative edits to this article should be scrutinized ... as should pretty much any edit (negative or positive) to the Di Iorio page or any other incumbent politician's Wiki page ... especially when municipal election campaigns are ongoing. Nothing wrong with that. Wolfchild 08:51, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

The article is blatantly autobiographical. Di Iorio's profile is visible only to the residents of the ward and is not broad enough to objectively elicit such an article. Even the tone biased towards him. While he deserves an entry, it should be compiled by an objective observer.

There is nothing warranting an autobiography tag, except that the subject uploaded a picture of himself. C'mon. Memahb 12:19, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
