[edit] {{cleanup}} tag explained

  • The article makes no pretense towards either a neutral point of view for example, addressing Pete Seeger as just "Pete" as a kind of buddy-buddy way of looking at him and his work. (Can't say I'm not a fan, exactly, but still). Not very encyclopedic...
  • Lacking some pertinent facts... Why were Arthur Miller and Peter Seeger tried for contempt of court? Why was the House of Representatives officially interested in their activities? (Yes, I know it for HUAC and all that jazz about Communism and McCarthyism, but the article doesn't say so. If the article was the sole source of knowledge, I could suppose Miller and Seeger could have been appearing for a tribute to Peter Seeger's Uncle, Alan Seeger or perhaps to testify in front of the subcommitee in charge of Casinos Bureau of Indian Affairs as part of the Committee of Mining and Lumber interests Department of the Interior.
    • Also, if the song was written in Ukraine... why are the lyrics on the page in German? Wouldn't they be in Ukranian or possibly Russian? V. Joe 07:48, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
