The section entitled "Political connection to Altace, pharmaceutical industry" should NOT be a part of this biography. This article is OBVIOUSLY someones attempt to make a political statement against Mr. Mumpower, and is inappropriate here.

The majority of the section doesn't even mention Mr. Mumpower, but goes on about Mr. Gregory, Altace, abortion, and King.

I am sure there is a place on Wikipedia for this information that would be appropriate, but this is NOT the place to express one-sided political views as facts. Hypnotist 21:43, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

=== Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia ===

Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia. This means that there is no practical limit to the number of topics we can cover, or the total amount of content, other than verifiability and the other points presented on this page.

There is a feasible limit for individual article sizes that depends on page download size for our dial-up readers and readability considerations for everybody (see Wikipedia:Article size). After a point, splitting an article into separate articles and leaving adequate summaries is a natural part of growth for a topic (see Wikipedia:Summary style). Some topics are covered by print encyclopedias only in short, static articles, and since Wikipedia requires no paper we can give more thorough treatments, include many more relevant links, be more timely, etc.

This also means you don't have to redirect one topic to a partially equivalent topic that is of more common usage. A "See also" section stating that further information on the topic is available on the page of a closely related topic may be preferable.

[edit] Review the contribution history of editor removing verified NPOV material

A thorough review of User contributions (excerpt):Tdl1060 reveals that the overwhelming majority of User:Tdl1060 Wiki contributions are characterized as pertaining to Republican politicians (even those not Tdl1060's fellow citizens of Illinois) and elections, suggesting to me that Tdl1060 is not always looking to make good faith and NPOV edits for the advancement of the Wikipedia, but rather, TDl1060 is targeting specific articles for broad-brush opportunities to enforce Ronald Reagan's so-called "Eleventh Commandment": ("Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.") over all Wikipedians. 4.88.61.188 18:37, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
