The previous version of this favored by Meelar is hostile in tone to NARAL. The language was anything but neutral.

[edit] FactCheck/Attack Ad

I have restored the section. I think the whole article is fairly sympathetic. Like any number of advocacy groups, NARAL has been known to play it fast and loose with the facts. While every incident is not notable, this one is current pertaining to politics. If anyone sees the ad and decides to look up NARAL, they should see this information.--Tznkai 14:12, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

OK, I can see your point. How about we remove it if/when Roberts is confirmed? In a historical sense, it doesn't rise to encyclopedicness, but it could be useful right now. Best, Meelar (talk) 14:17, August 10, 2005 (UTC)
Not a problem. If we kept every lame attack ad every advocacy group ever made we could make a brand new wiki.--Tznkai 14:19, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

By the way, the ad is discussed in more detail here. I actually used the same factcheck.org piece you did. You might want to rephrase the bit about "false accusations," as what they said is more misleading than false. He "supported" them, but not about bombing.

I was using the words that factcheck did actually, but go ahead and change if you wish--Tznkai 17:42, 10 August 2005 (UTC)


I'd sort of like there to be more information on NARAL's general work in support of health care for women. State affiliates are often the parent-organizations for a number of smaller organizations, like the Medicaid Matters... meta-organizations, and the Institute for Reproductive Health Access. Any opinions? DivineAna 22:37, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:NARAL logo.png

Image:NARAL logo.png 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 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.BetacommandBot 05:01, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
