message: === Quote and plagiarism ===
HI. I've got a question. That quote from Gibbons was plagiarized. Should it be listed as a quotation from Gibbons? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.77.110.51 (talk • contribs) 14 August 2005

Divorce proceedings were stayed upon agreement of living separately pending the suit. Dawn accused Jim of "infatuation and involvement with the wife of a Reno doctor,” but he stated, she is just a friend.

replies: text: The portion of this entry devoted to scandals does seem highly unusual.  A journalist complaining about a politician using rhetoric in a public-policy debate hardly seems noteworthy at all.  And the alleged sexual assault incident is given very dominant coverage for an unsubstantiated charge.  (For comparison, is President Clinton's biography dominated by coverage about the claims made by Juanita Brodderick?)  This isn't an encyclopedia entry; it's a political hit piece. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.88.233.70 (talk) 22:58, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

There has apparently been an edit war (so far from Wiki policy that it can be characterized as vandalism) from April 11 - April 14, 2009 among users identified by four different ISPs.  These users have been using the article space itself to debate issues which belong here, on the discussion page.  They also made personal remarks to one another and did not cite sources for their contentions.  Reviewing Wiki policies at WP:NPOV (neutral point of view), WP:NOR (no original research or personal editorializing), and WP:VERIFY (cite all facts to verifiable mainstream sources), as well as WP:GOODFAITH (reminding everyone to assume good intentions and act with good faith) will be helpful.  
Finally, please also read WP:DISCUSSION about the proper use of these discussion pages.  If you wish to discuss the state budget in general, email one another.  Neither the article space nor this discussion space is appropriate for that kind of conversation. If you wish to discuss the best way to present neutral, factual, and well-cited material in the article, please use the "new section" tab at the top of this discussion page. Remember to always sign your discussion page remarks (even if you don't have a formal Wiki name) by typing in two hyphens and four tildes:  -- ~~~~  The tilde is found on the key to the left of the numeral "1" on your keyboard.  -- LisaSmall T/C 21:36, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
