replies: text: Not quite.  Your edit hardly covers "both sides."  I will rewrite it to make it less POV.  Laurie David being questioned about the same baseless charge (which she has refuted) is hardly "widespread criticism."  Wikipedia is not a platform for political hit pieces.  At least three editors have removed Goldberg's comments and the fake "airline controversy" nonsense.  These editors are in consensus, and that is why such nonsense was (and will continue to be) deleted. Eleemosynary 04:49, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I read the article.  She is mentioned in it, but the language you quoted does not directly address her.  Your edit made it seem like the Times writer used those statistics to directly criticize Laurie David.  In the context of the article, he did nothing of the sort.  Your previous edit could be contstrued as extremely disingenuous.  I didn't assume you were Bernie Goldberg, but his book is self-promotion.  Goldberg using David as a target in his book is admittedly sleazy, but it's not encyclopedic.  If you don't want the article to be a puff piece, try not to make it a hit piece.

thread_title: Air Travel Controversy

message: Hi, User:Eleemosynary.  Regarding your reverts to Laurie David, I disagree that consensus has been reached since every revert by one editor clearly is a disagreement with another and there has been no discussion here.  I can't speak for past edits, but my most current contribution presented both sides to offer a neutral point of view and cite very credible sources in mainstream media.  The controversy section only contains documented facts from credible sources, including the subject of the article.  Please discuss any further changes in Talk:Laurie David.

message: Hi User:Eleemosynary. You don't at all find it noteworthy that a top champion against global warming produces nearly five times the annual CO2 output of an average US citizen just for holiday travel? BrushlessInSeattle 19:37, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Witnesses say Laurie David approached Karl Rove's table, was verbally abusive and asked to leave.  
It seemed a partisan issue really unrelated to the rest of her work so I removed it. It reflects poorly on Laurie David and almost makes it look like she went out of her way to go over to Karl Rove's table and harass him.

:Which is probably the case. However, I'm not sure how it could be incorporated into a Wikipedia article without making the article un-encyclopedic. 4.243.206.84 18:08, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I see that a COI template was added by Johnnie Bob on April 7, 2021, likely because user 2601:18e:8300:8a00:2851:2c0:206e:b003 made some edits suggesting they were editing their own page. However these edits seem to be consistent with allowable edits to correct misinformation according to 
WP:AUTO#IFEXIST. There's no evidence this person was a "major contributor" to this wikipage and it now seems to have a NPOV tone. Please let me know if you have any objections to the template's removal. Nnev66 (talk) 18:56, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Trying again to reach Johnnie Bob now that I know how to properly ping. I'd like to remove the COI template on this page (see above). Nnev66 (talk) 18:52, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I certainly have no objection to the removal of the template.  This was placed a long time ago and the article has undergone substantial changes (and improvements) since that time. Johnnie Bob (talk) 01:22, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the feedback and context Johnnie Bob. Good to know there wasn't anything more to it. Nnev66 (talk) 02:04, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

text: I waited to see if anyone had any objections to removing the "A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject" tag. Since no one has spoken up I'm going to remove it for the reason noted above, i.e. it appears an IP address who may have been the subject made corrections but I don't see evidence of an editor being a major contributor.
