[edit] Wikipedia:Neutral point of view

I've popped a "npov" tag onto this article because I think it's written from the point of view of advocacy. It reads a little like propaganda. I'm also a little concerned about the reliability of the sources. --Tony Sidaway 04:31, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Which sources are you concerned with? Index on Censorship is probably the leading publication in its field. Himāl Southasian is, as far as I know, a reputable publication not particularly associated with any particular viewpoint. Frontline is the magazine published by The Hindu, one of India's leading newspapers.
It seems to me that this is a pretty blatant case of oppression, comparable to what happened under apartheid in South Africa or Jim Crow in the U.S. South. There isn't really a need to present a view giving equal weight to a social organizer and to armed thugs. - Jmabel | Talk 02:32, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
At the time I made my remark, I informed Tony Sidaway on his user talk page. It's been several days, he has been editing on Wikipedia but hasn't responded to this, so I am assuming that he will not, and am removing the NPOV tag. - Jmabel | Talk 20:46, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
