Rehnquist

edit

Saying that he was born at the same day as Jimmy Carter may redirect users who are viewing Rehnquist’s article to the article about Jimmy Carter, who was a greater and more progressive man, so I think this information should be kept, to make the world a better place to live for homosexuals, blacks or any member of minorities (except Jews).

Well, as a Progressive, a major fan of Jimmy Carter, as well as a Jew, I still think its irrelevant in that article :-) Let's have it out on the talk page of that article if you want to keep it MrChupon (talk) 02:41, 13 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Columbia University Edit

edit

Sir! The new Forbes' ranking is out, and Columbia is in fact ranked 42. I only added the "wtf?" comment in my edit because the ranking is an anomaly, if we take into consideration the school's actual strength and achievements. In fact, Columbia dropped 30 spots from Forbes' last published rankings. The methodology that Forbes' employs, moreover, is largely subject to question: how is it possible that ~40% of the score comes from RateMyProfessor.com (when top schools employ their own evaluation procedures), Who's Who (not reliable, hardly scientific), and PayScale (a self-reported website)? I say Forbes' opinion should be discounted for the colleges specified at Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.189.27.4 (talk) 05:56, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

I really have no opinion on it, just please keep the wtf commentary on that article's discussion page. MrChupon (talk) 05:59, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yes, sir. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.189.27.4 (talk) 06:00, 4 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Munich

edit

The sentence "12 murdered - the 5 terrorists were killed by German police attempting to save innocent Israelis" in the infobox doesn't fit NPOV, correct.

However, two things. 1 is a minor point, another is a less minor point.

  • I think the 5 members of Black September being killed part should go last and switched with the West German police officer. Just seems to make more sense, list it from innocent --> police --> terrorists or even list those killed together and those responsible at the end.
  • Black September is considered a terrorist organization, so writing "5 terrorists from Black September" shouldn't violate NPOV. Heck, it was because of them that many European counter-terrorism units were formed or upgraded, and Munich was a terrorist attack.

Let me know your thoughts on this. I didn't want to edit it, since it seems like it's been a back-and-forth thing twice, and doing a third time may give appearance of edit war. And also always better to discuss things once they're reverted twice already...

Thanks. --Activism1234 03:44, 27 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

I'll defer to those more familiar with the topic if you'd like to make changes -- it just struck me as NPOV when I came across it. MrChupon (talk) 01:28, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

American_Measurement_Standard edit

I am not harming wikipedia, if you look at the history, all I did was update the links so that they are proper. I didn't add these links, just made sure they went to where the originator meant them to. As you can see, there are at least 3 other companies links in there, so you obviously think company links are ok since you didn't remove them. Someone at some point thought our "Size Matters" course was relevant to this topic and used it as a reference. I am just tidying up links to our site. I understand why you are doing this, because wiki's don't like companies trying to improve seo etc., but I just wanted the links to be correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by McKissock-Real-Estate (talkcontribs) 01:41, 9 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I appreciate the response. That said I still think the links don't belong, due to WP:ELNO #9 and WP:ADV. The site is selling the reference, it's not accessable as far as I can tell? Is there some way to view it without paying? Perhaps we can take it to the external links noticeboard for more opinions? MrChupon (talk) 02:02, 9 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

akora khattak

you just removed my editing of akora khattak which was truth about akora khattak. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.8.237.193 (talk) 20:22, 17 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

I reverted your edits because there were no sources for your information, and they did not have an impartial tone. You might want to check out WP:IMPARTIAL for more information. MrChupon (talk) 07:17, 22 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
