[edit] Sources

Hi, this article right now has no sources, and is violating Wikipedia policy on biographies as it currently is. It also violates this particular rule, "The writing style should be neutral, factual, and understated, avoiding both a sympathetic point of view and an advocacy journalism point of view." This article is very POV in favor. I put up a need sources tag, but if its not fixed in a few days, I'll nominate it for speedy deletion until it does. The article could be good, and the person is notable in his own circles, it just lacks sources, so maybe somebody could find some. Thanks. Basejumper 20:53, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

If you have any examples of specific POV violations which you have found in this article, please bring them up in this TALK page here, or fix them yourself. Don't simply speedy delete the article. And please be careful, because you seem to have a personal anti-Aish HaTorah POV, for example over here: Talk:Aish_HaTorah#Controversy_Section, you noted the absence of a controversy section on the Aish HaTorah article and in your user page, User:Basejumper#About_Me you lightly criticize Rabbi Noach Weinberg for not being outwardly friendly enough. Perhaps you are the one with the POV problem, not this article? רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 00:22, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm sorry for your upset. Let me point out that my reason for speed deletion was not the POV problems which are light and fixable. It was the lack of sources on a living person. I encourage you to add sources if you have them available, because, as I said, the individual is a living person and an unsourcesd article is not permitted. He is an interesting person and does deserve an article, this one simply breaks the rules. It would be helpful in our future discussion if we both would consult the rules of wp:civility also.
I feel, and it is important for me if you would recognize this, that asking that an article conform to the rules of a living person is not an indication of an anti-Aish Hatorah POV, and certainly not of one being pushed. Nither is wondering why a controversy section on the article about the organization is no longer there.
It is personally important for me if you would please withdraw that statement with some sort of apology or simple acknowledgement that it may have been not as appropriate as it could have been, because such statements can be seen by others as a license for hassling, following, and otherwise being uncivil, even though I know and am sure you yourself did not mean them in that way at all. If this is overly sensitive, I ask that you indulge that sensitivity on the matter of that single commentl while I certainly have taken careful note of your strong feeelings about this article.
Also your "Please be careful," comment could be interpreted by someone who is sensitive to be a threat of some sort. I acknowledge that you are probably not making a threat, but I am asking that you please reword that statement in a more careful manner just to be reassuring in this regard. Thank you for being understanding on this issue. Basejumper 15:26, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Still no sources

Hi, I'm bringing another urging for sourcing of the BLP. My last comment on this was three months ago and there's been no progress. I deleted the part about him controlling the network of rabbis. I've heard criticisms of some overseas branches (particularly Florida and London), and Aish reps deny he's in control of all of them or discuss the amount of control he has, and this could possibly be contentious because of such things. I deleted it until it can be sourced. Basejumper2 08:43, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
