Talk:Meir Weinstein

message: Please do not copy and paste newspaper articles. If you want to add these articles you need to rewrite them into your own words as per the guidelines of Wikipedia and almost be sure that they are not a potential POV source.

replies: text: You've misread policy re: POV. NPOV doesn't mean you can't include any opinion, just that you cannot include your personal opinion and that any opinion cited has to be from a published source (and not a blog). Editorials in newspapers are fine. 
According to WP:NPOV: "The acronym NPOV does not mean "no points of view". The elimination of article content cannot be justified under this policy by simply labeling it "POV"." Stolen Glances‎ (talk) 02:50, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I've rewritten the paragraph on the Paul Fromm protest to accurately reflect the source which does not claim that Weinstein personally organized the protest, was involved in the fracas with Fromm or was even present. Stolen Glances‎ (talk) 03:28, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fromm 

message: The section on the Palestine House demo seemed a bit one sided against the JDL so I balanced it out. Also removed the reference to the LA bombing as that was a non-sequitor and there was nothing to back up the inference that that's why Weinstein was taking a break from the JDL.

message: I've restored the section on Baruch Goldstein but added some more material from the source article that balances things out (ie Weinstein saying Kach did not encourage terrorism and wanted all terrorists expelled from Israel) Stolen Glances‎ (talk) 03:58, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Baruch Goldstein 

message: I've rewritten the section on Alberta in order to give Weinstein's organizing more context (ie the Aryan Nations were there). There was also one line that seems to have been lifted from the source material ie "Rabbi Kemelman called Mr. Halevi a "carpetbagger" railing against an anti-Semitic outbreak which does not exist." I've rewritten it accordingly. Stolen Glances‎ (talk) 04:08, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alberta 

message: I've restored material that wasn't "cut and pasted" from source material but have also tried to add context and balance where necessary. I found two or three lines that looked like they might have been direct lifts and have removed or reworded them. 
One thing I haven't restored is the following - I'd like a bit of feedback on whether a) it adds something to the article b) shoud be reworded:
In 1989, he was ridiculed in the Toronto Star after claiming that the JDL had an Ontario membership of 5,500. According to the Star "Contacts in the Jewish community say the figure is closer to 5 than 5,500." )Rod Goodman, "Mishaps that made Star readers angry", March 4, 1989

replies: text: I see no problem with the material you've restored.  I fully support the current edit.  Stone put to sky (talk) 10:24, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: If everyone who was ridiculed in a newspaper was mentioned it would be a waste of wikipedia. I don't know where the JDL is releasing it's current members? I do not support this quote at all and I think it's a good idea to leave it out. --Eternalsleeper (talk) 00:34, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
