84.54.166.36, please stop presenting unreferenced, and seemingly original, conspiracy theories as fact. - SimonP 14:33, August 3, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Opus Dei

No mention of his membership of Opus Dei, which is important as it is the conerstone of his religious life. Fergananim 18:32, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

• It appears that he is not in fact a member of Opus Dei; see [1] and [2] Paul 04:19, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
• I created this article in Esperanto for no good reason at all. Paul 04:51, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
• In his book, My FBI, Louis Freeh says (page 300) that is was in fact his brother who was a member of Opus Dei, which is probably the source of confusion.Retsep81 04:51, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good article

I nominated this for peer review because I think it's a pretty solid article that needs just a little more improvement to be featured. It generated little interest, so I'll settle for "good article." Paul 18:09, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Failed GA

This article failed the GA nominations due to lack of references. Tarret 23:17, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article quality

This article is horrible. There is little to no biographical information. It doesn't even list who appointed Freeh as director of the FBI which is what I cam to this article for.

[edit] dates of FBI tenure?

I don't see when he resigned, or much explanation as to background. Also, the pizza parlor thing needs to move to the list of notable cases if it's notable.

As to the Opus Dei Academy, there's only the one source listed, and if that book is so notable, it doesn't have an article (or a listing with ISBN details, etc.). If Opus Dei is running an educational system inside this country, more power to 'em, but they need to have better documentation of it. Does the school have a listing in Opus Dei's directory or something we could link to? Ojcit 04:44, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] mcgreevey-cipel controversy

It looks to me like it's still not an established fact, so I changed the text from "revealed" to "alleged." That's apparently in agreement with Golan Cipel (the article, not necessarily the individual...). I'm no expert, but the details of that scandal are probably not within the scope of this article unless more evidence arises. Ojcit 03:35, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA Sweeps (delisted)

In order to uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of October 17, 2007, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

The reasons:

1) Citations should after punctuation marks, not before.

2) The lead should be expanded.

3) The use of the summary style is questinable. This article is about a person not about some major topic, which in itself needs a summary style. Many articles named as the main for the sections don't even mention Mr. Freeh. There is litle information about Louis Freeh as a person especially his life before he became director of FBI. The current content of the article doesn't justify the use Louis Freeh's name as a title. A more appropriate title is "FBI during Louis Freeh's tenure" or something like that.

The article should be rewritten as a prose containing more personal info about Louis Freeh, including his whereabouts before and after his FBI director service. Ruslik 08:36, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
