Sarah Palin

You've clearly done some good things for the article, so I should not have lapsed in my WP:AGF. But please, let's agree that WP:SS means summarizing points, not cutting out one side of the story. Homunq (talk) 00:50, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sarah Palin

That picture is awful. I thought mine was better. Relocator100 (talk) 03:28, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Palin talk

Thanks for pointing me to the discussion - I'm replying there. Tvoz/talk 06:37, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah - fast-changing has taken on a while new meaning. Tvoz/talk 07:02, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This user supported Sarah Palin for President.

WP:SS

You reverted my edits, as is appropriate if you don't feel consensus. I wonder, though, if you think that it's just a bad idea to make the connection I made at all, or if there could be some way to phrase it loosely enough to be reasonable but specifically enough to be meaningful? ps. you can respond on the talk page there. Homunq (talk) 16:33, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I replied there. Sorry about the delay. So much going on.Ferrylodge (talk) 16:48, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

NYT article

Having just read the New York Times Don’t Like Palin’s Wikipedia Story? Change It article (a la the ANI thread), I wanted to say "Kudos to you, sir!" for your excellent work! Thank you, both for improving the project and its public image!! --Kralizec! (talk) 18:13, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sarah Palin

Didn't see that story had been updated ... thanks for the tip. Blueboy96 22:47, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The AIP welcome speech is significant because you can't just up and decide to give a speech to a political group. I doubt that the group currently meeting in St. Paul, MN would let anyone speak unless they saw that person as an ally. --Zeamays (talk) 01:52, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am quickly becoming concerned that the top 3 editors of the Sarah Palin page have made Pro-Palin edits 99.9% of the time. No matter the circumstance, the three of you have always been Pro-Palin thought the talk page discussion and that fact that you are having a disproportionate amount of edits seriously calls into question the neutrality of the article at this time. zredsox (talk) 18:00, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please indicate an example of a particular edit of mine today that you find troublesome. It is very difficult to respond to generalized grievances. Thanks. Broadly speaking, I don't think I'm under any obligation to make edits that make Palin look bad, especially if others are already going overboard in that respect. My goal is to make the article neutral and accurate, and I don't think my edits have puffed up or exaggerated her attributes or her faults.Ferrylodge (talk) 18:02, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You are under an obligation to work toward a NPOV, but every edit (I MEAN EVERY EDIT) that you have made has been Pro-Palin. It would be one thing if it was just you and there were only a handful of edits made, but the reality is you have the most edits by far on the page and the next two editors on the list hold the same values as you (which could be perceived to make the bio read like a McCain/Palin campaign flier.) I appreciate that you feel you are striving to be neutral and accurate, but you are not achieving that lofty goal. Specifically, your stated political positions bring in to question your ability to edit the article in a fair and balanced manner - WP:COI. zredsox (talk) 18:34, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
