[edit] cleanup

Perhaps everyone could be a bit more specific? I have not yet set about cleaning up this page. What about this page isn't NPOV? What in your estimation needs attribution? I would prefer, if I may, to avoid anti-militia language because too many militia movement pages are choked with POV language whose provenance is questionable (i.e.: anti-militia activists).

My bad, I looked at some of these posts and see now that they're old. My eyes must be tired (LOL). JP419 03:15, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

This article does not read as if it was written by an unbiased party at all.

i think that the neutrality of this article is in dispute, and that it should be noted in the article Tabun1015 03:05, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Whaaa?

This article is inflammatory and biased. I like the assumption that ADL and southern poverty law center "seek to discredit" the Indiana Militia Corps, as if an organized campaign against this fairly non-notable group. protohiro 05:34, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Even handed and fair

I have read the material from the websites ADL, the militia group, and law enforcement sites. This article seemed very fair in its information on the organization. If I would say it was slanted, I would say it was slanted favorably toward the Indiana Militia Corps. I think the entries made to delete the article, based upon ADL criticism in the article, further discredits their organization. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 132.79.8.15 (talk) 17:34, 24 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] This page is asinine as it stands

This has more to do with what the ADL thinks of the Indiana Militia Corps than the Indiana Militia Corps. Dwdollar 09:16, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 3CC should be put on a separate page.

I think the section dealing with the Third Continental Congress should be put on another page. Half of the page on the Indiana Militia Corps deals with this Third Continental Congress, which is now defunct. Any reference to "3CC" should be kept short and linked to a separate page, and if anyone is willing to research this group, the article can be expanded. I believe there is an extensive amount of material on the Indiana Militia website that amply explains their views (publications page), and their contact page solicits website visitors to write if they have questions. They may be right-wing, but they disavow criminal violence. I believe this page can be made more neutral and cleaned-up. 65.29.88.104 14:51, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:IMClogo.jpg

Image:IMClogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
