Talk:F. William Engdahl

message: I write some times for the hebrew wiki.
I come across a few articles of this guy when i was interested in the ukraine-russia gas crisis.
In his articles he is using so much hidden propaganda against the west its amazed me i cant tell if he lies there, but it surely not written naturally. I think its awful to have him here presented in this way... that makes me sick please change or delete this.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.177.114.246 (talk) 13:58, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

What he writes about financial Tsunami makes sense to me. Other source: James Cumes.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.218.106.206 (talk) 19:14, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I removed a ton of redundancies, rewrote the article for what I actually could source (removing things I could not find info about), took out POV language, and made some MOS changes.  Looks better now, but hard 3rd party information about the man is still lacking.  NJGW (talk) 05:09, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Greetings all...under the Career section I changed "Engdahl is also a contributor to the website of the anti-American Centre for Research on Globalization to "Engdahl is also a contributor to the website of the anti-globalization Centre for Research on Globalization.
The term "anti-American" is blatantly subjective and does not belong in an encyclopedia (except, perhaps, as the subject of an article defining it). I changed it to "anti-globalization" as that term more accurately reflects the POV of the organization in question. I hope both its supporters and its detractors can agree on that point. I suppose the most neutral term is something like "an organization critical of political and economic globalization" and if anyone is strongly opposed to "anti-globalization" feel free to change it.--User2346 (talk) 00:37, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

message: While doing a Global Research cleanup, I looked again at Talk:Seeds of Destruction (book) where there are suggestions that it would best be merged in this article.  However, this article itself mostly uses primary sources, as if noone ever wrote about Engdahl.  I haven't looked for sources yet, but the tag is still relevant as of July 2021.  If independent sources are really lacking, this often suggests that the article fails to meet WP:GNG or WP:NBIO...  —PaleoNeonate – 20:39, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Very thin sourcing for clearly derogatory statements about a living person. WP:BLPBALANCE indicates we need secondary sources for such material. The sources were a passing reference in a Time opinion piece, and blog posts by two advocacy groups/charities. Not the robust secondary reliable sources for such material, and not due weight to appear in the lead. Cambial — foliar❧ 16:01, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
