[edit] Texas House category

m [John Culberson]; 22:06:28 . . Thepedestrian (Talk) (putting back the texas house cat, since culberson was indeed a member (read the article maybe?))

Sorry about that, Ped. I was updating his current status, and didn't realize that we wanted to keep past biography information as well. I have a databse full of Texas House and Senate members going back about 10 years. Would you like for me to propose some backfill information on them? weide 13:24, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Link to opposition websites

I removed an edit that included one of the opponent's campaign sites, as well as language that was almost surely trying to make readers look kindly upon him. I don't necessarily disagree with including the sites of his opposers, but there should be links to both or neither to stay in line with WP:NPOV. Seqsea (talk) 05:39, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV?

This article to me does not appear to follow NPOV guidelines. The language used is rather slanted in places (ex: "While opposed to forms of public transportation that would immediately remove cars from Houston's roads, Culberson continues to throw 100's of millions of dollars into projects to build bigger roads for bigger cars resulting in dirtier air and a hotter climate."), and the entirely negative focus of the entire second half of the article is curious. I am not a regular wikipedia editor (and I know nothing about Culbertson), but I think this article definitely needs the note. Seasleepy 03:31, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
