[edit] Inappropriate article?

Yes, but it does purport to be an encylopedia, does it not?
Why then is this article inappropriate?

[edit] Variation

Michael Savage uses a variation. This is the Red diaper doper baby. They are red diaper babies who were influenced by the drug culture that arose in the 1960s.Lestrade 18:46, 18 October 2006 (UTC)Lestrade

[edit] Vandalism or "protecting Wikipedia from lawsuits"?

An anonymous user, accessing the internet through the HughesNet satellite connection, and using at least the following IPs:

has been removing valid content from this article and related articles. After I reverted his deletions he contacted me on my talk page (See RDB Deletes below):

The article Address Unknown describes a novel by Kathrine Kressmann Taylor in which a well-meaning person does extensive damage by insisting on free, open communication in a hostile environment. Similarly, well-meaning User:Petri Krohn thinks that he is opposing vandalism by reverting my deletions. I can't convince him that my deletions are an attempt to prevent various radical lawyers and litigious persons from suing the Wikipedia Foundation for libel. By insisting that the deleted material be retained, he is placing Wikipedia at risk.69.19.14.36 02:14, 6 January 2007 (UTC)Benighted

(Moved from User talk:Petri Krohn)

Please do not revert the deletions related to Red Diaper Baby. I deleted them in order to prevent lawsuits against Wikipedia Foundation. Thanks. 69.19.14.35 17:20, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Benighted

If you genuinely have the interests of Wikipedia in mind, please register an account. (...or at least edit from a fixed IP, so that you can be contacted and your edits can be traced.)
Anonymous deletions of content, without proper explanation on the talk page, are always considered VANDALISM. -- Petri Krohn 17:35, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Please realize that you are endangering Wikipedia Foundation by reverting names of living persons who may find cause for legal action.66.82.9.57 18:24, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Benighted

I do not think that the suggestion that these two radical lawyers both had radical parents is defamatory, but it needs to be demonstrated with verifiable references or removed. My concern is not a hypothetical lawsuit but the accuracy of information in Wikipedia. The suggestion sounds plausible, but it needs to be backed up by reference to another source. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 18:50, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Religion/Ethnicity

Is Jewishness a necessary property, quality, attribute, characteristic, or predicate of a Red diaper baby?Lestrade (talk) 22:14, 14 May 2008 (UTC)Lestrade
