Our policy on biographies of living people requires that citations be provided when controversial material is added. Something like a major newspaper or magazine article might be appropriate. Tom Harrison Talk 21:40, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Hezbollah & Nasrallah
editYou are missing the point completely. Hezbollah is indeed designated a terrorist organization, but that is already covered later on in the article. Labeling someone a "terrorist" as you are trying to do is something that is generally avoided (see WP:WTA); the preference is to state who considers them a terrorist organization, and why. Again, this has already been covered in that article. And they have been designated as a terrorist org long before the kidnapping case. Figured that that "strong background in poly-sci" would have given you a better factual grasp on all of this.
As for Hassan Nasrallah, he is not designated a terrorist. Continued inclusion of that information can result in warnings for vandalism or WP:BLP violations. Tarc 03:21, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
