message: Hello!
As I stated on the front page, I want to prove that an entry for even a horrible film such as this, can be so well written and so finely crafted that it can achieve FA status. This is not a joke, this is a serious attempt to see if an ugly duckling can be transformed into a swan. I need and want feedback on every aspect of the entry and how it cam be improved.

message: User:71.228.10.185 keeps adding the following statement to the Daniel Seals article, "Seals altered his campaign biography to remove mention of Lieberman after MoveOn.org endorsed Ned Lamont, Lieberman's 2006 Democratic primary opponent." There are a handful of problems with this. First, linking MoveOn.org's endorsement with Seals supposed removal of information is speculation. You are assuming cause and effect, for which you have no basis. Second, there is no source cited, which is especially important for an article concerning a living person. Third, an endorsement in the Connecticut Democratic Senate Primary is not relevant to the Illinois 10th Congressional District General Election. Fourth, you referred to my edit as vandalism, despite me leaving detailed comments in the edit summary. Wikipedia users are supposed to assume good faith. Fifth, User:71.228.10.185 launched an ad hominem attack in the edit summary, saying "I wish this kid would grow up." Altogether, these factors are not creating a NPOV. Also, I need to mention that User:71.228.10.185 has made questionable edits before, including to the Mark Kirk article (Dan Seals opponent), which he/she was warned about by multiple users and editors, but these were ignored.
