NPOV template

edit

I didn't add the {{NPOV}} template (User:PeteForsyth did); here's what he said in his editsummary when adding it:

"add NPOV tag (Thus far, this is only based on a single WW article, written from a decidedly Portland-centric perspective."

I was reviewing it, since there was no discussion here. I'll echo Pete's comment, the article isn't terribly neutral, nor is the tone very cohesive. Finally, it uses the word "She" a bit too much. tedder (talk) 22:42, 30 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV

edit

I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:

This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
  1. There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
  2. It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
  3. In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:40, 27 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

In this unusual case, I think it's better to leave the banner on. I wrote the bulk of this article, and also added the banner; the reason is that the only thorough and reliable source I could find contained significant bias. This is not unusual when working on the bio of a local politician. While it would be possible to more thoroughly research this article and improve it, it's going to take substantial work to do so, and I don't have any immediate plans to take it on. -Pete (talk) 14:28, 27 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
