[edit] RE:Ward Churchill
OK, I've taken a look at the page and picture in question. You certainly have a point about the verifiability of the source: although WP:V and WP:RS contain no specific guidelines about images, I would say that one editor's assertion of the origin of the drawing does not satisfy WP:V's rules on dubious and/or self-published sources. Furthermore, looking at the talk page, it seems that User:Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters violated WP:CIVIL in accusing you of "random destruction". Not that I'm necessarily saying the image should be removed, but I think you have a valid point as per WP policy. If it would help, I will contact the user in question and try to negotiate a compromise; the next step would be a request for comment on the page, and possibly a strawpoll. Please tell me (on my AMA desk, not my talkpage) whether you find this an acceptable plan. Walton monarchist89 10:39, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Request for Comment: Verifiability as to the creator of the Rosa Luxemburg drawing
In preparation for an RFC at [WP:RFC/BIO] on the verifiability of the attribution of the the Rosa Luxemburg drawing to Ward Churchill, I have placed the appropriate section on the [1] page. There is a location available for Statements by editors previously involved in dispute. I have placed this notice on the talk page of the editors previously involved in the dispute to allow time for supplying these comments prior to requesting broad input from the Wikipedia community.
- Hello Uncle, I've had the chance to read your reply on the Talk:Ward Churchill page and I thought you made some good points. I appreciate your focusing on the specifics of the policy. I am putting together a comment or two but I have some things going on right now that I have to pay attention to. I'll try to post it in the next couple of days or so. Thanks for your patience, cheers! Cafe Irlandais 18:12, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] About the Ward Churchill case
Hi, sorry I took so long to get back to you, I've been very busy both on WP and in RL. You did the right thing in going to RfC; the lack of comments from outside editors is unfortunate. The next thing you should do, since the RfC doesn't seem to have resolved matters, is start a strawpoll, i.e. a brief survey of users' views on the issue. It looks like the general consensus on the page is generally on your side and against LotLE, so the strawpoll should be helpful to you. If you like, I'll set up the strawpoll on the page myself. (After that, if the dispute isn't resolved, the next step is to take it to the Mediation Cabal or Mediation Committee, but hopefully it isn't a serious enough dispute to go that far.)

[edit] Asking for an update
Hi, just out of interest, was the Ward Churchill image issue resolved amicably in the end? Walton Vivat Regina! 17:56, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
