[edit] Basic Biographical info

Provide basic bio info like birthdate and education with appropriate references. The article had no references. Cheers. Wassupwestcoast 04:47, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lake Okanagan Injunction

No references can be found. Suggest it be deleted. Cheers. Wassupwestcoast 04:48, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

This was unverifiable. (Cheers!) Wassupwestcoast 02:02, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Lost Elections

Too much detail provided about elections lost. Totally irrelevant to bio. At least very trivial. Also too much info about successor. Should be trimmed. This is an article about Russow not whoever succeeded her and whatever political animosity that brought. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wassupwestcoast (talk • contribs) 04:52, 12 January 2007 (UTC).

I've removed comments that were political in nature and too detailed about her political successor. (Cheers!) Wassupwestcoast 02:01, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unverifiable comments

Some comments towards the end of the article have not been verified and should be deleted. (Cheers!) Wassupwestcoast 02:04, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture?

I think it's rather surprising that a notable former Green party leader within the past 10 years doesn't even have a picture anywhere on the internet from what I've seen. --Mrdie 02:44, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons

From Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons

An important rule of thumb when writing biographical material about living persons is "do no harm". Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid, and as such it is not our job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives. BLPs must be written conservatively, with regard for the subject's privacy.

This is Wiki policy. Cheers! Wassupwestcoast 03:34, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
