Need better references and minor POV revision
editThis article currently has two problems:
- It only cites one reference link, and that link doesn't actually point to any information about Ginsberg. So if that site contains information about Ginsberg, it's on another page somewhere. Thus a different set of references will be required to actually verify all the information in this article (including the minor details like his dog's name).
- The article has some minor point-of-view bias toward the subject, and contains too many phrases like "numerous", "frequently", "many", etc, with no supporting documentation. It also uses some weasel words and phrases that indicate some bias, such as saying he gave advice to "the famed" 527 group (implying the fame and importance of the group without actually providing verification), or that he is "well-known" as a "significant force" behind redistricting efforts (again without actually providing any actually citations or quotes or references).
So while the information in the article is probably correct, it needs references to verify the facts and some of the language should be altered to remove bias and weasel word phrasing.Dugwiki 21:42, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- P.S. I removed link to Harvard University IOP: Visiting Fellows from References. It seems to have no mention of Bejamin Ginsberg. If one exists on this site, please replace the link with something pointing directly to the appropriate page.Dugwiki 21:46, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
