From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A previous version of this article was discussed at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Tom Barnard. The article was kept following a rewrite, which solved the most important issues. - Mgm|(talk) 11:34, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Jeff Passolt

Oddly there are certain things that are being removed regularly that are not exactly favorable to Tom Barnard and other cast members. One person has repeatedly deleted info on the show. The "deleter" has confined his work to Barnard and another Twin Cities local radio personality (Dan Cole). It leads me to think that someone who is close to the people named in the article is "cleaning" things to make the show's cast look better. Oh yeah, Jeff Passolt gave Alan Quist a contribution of $300 when Quist ran for Governor.

Then make an article about Jeff Passolt. Tom Barnard is not responsible for what he does. I think it is you who has the vendetta.

What is being deleted? I glanced through the histroy and didn't see anything worthwhile being deleted but I could have missed it but there is a lot of history to look through. Maybe you should be more specific? Also what does Quist have to do with anything? Sinner6 17:11, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Quist is a rigid conservative, in fact, he lost primaries to the centrist Arne Carlson. The contribution to Quist shows Passolt to be partisan, which conflicts with accepted journaistic standards.

And that has what to do with Bernard?

Nothing, but if people want to edit by including Pawelk's breast size or Crousor's porn fettish, it fits with the rest of the content.

So Jeff Passolt is not allowed to contribute financially, even if he does not publically endorse someone? If he endorsed Mike Hatch this wouldnt even be an issue.

I don't think it is worth mentioning. Alan Quist is not a very prominent politician and $300 is not that big of a contribution. Besides, its too specific for a general description of the man. --Ouzo 22:42, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Terri Traen's Real Name

Why do people keep taking Terri Traen's real name (Terri Pawelk) out of the article?

Because as a public person she uses the name Traen and her legal name is of no relevence to the discussion.

There has been a lot of reverting over including/excluding Terri Traen's real name Theresa Pawelk. I personally don't have a problem with having her real name in the article (since most biographies always show a person's birth name). But I would like to know why people have been taking it out completely or replacing it with "real name removed out of professional courtesy" (whatever that means) Oh, and people: sign your names with a ~~~~ after you write your comments. --Ouzo 01:01, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

I agree, it is relevant, most other "celebs" have their real name cited in wiki articles. And taking it out citing professional courtesy makes the article look like it was modified a-la Norm Coleman's (when his own staff scrubbed references to make him look more favorable to his constituents).204.73.55.10 22:14, 5 March 2007 (UTC) Crazy Cabbie

[edit] Move Info

A suggestion.. This page should be about Tom Barnard and not generally about the KQRS Morning Show. I would suggest that a new page KQRS Morning Show be created to house the information about the show and this page should be about Tom Barnard.--Khoogheem 21:02, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
