Talk:The Centurion (magazine)

message: I removed three things just now:
* "War on Christmas" note under "Controversial antics": "also fought what it claimed to be a War on Christmas" and "taboo slogan "Merry Christmas!"" are both useless to readers. First, the Centurion seems to simply be repeating Bill O'Reilly's ideas. The linked War on Christmas article doesn't mention the Centurion as an important leader in that so-called war. Second, "Merry Christmas" is not "taboo," oficially banned, or otherwise frowned upon at Rutgers University. Should a contributor wish to claim otherwise, a citation would be in order.
* Attribution of Coat-of-Arms design: besides breaking the link to the Coat of Arms article, this attribution seems meaningless. The "artist" is an unknown, and hence not important. They do not have their own article or any other significant presence on the web.
* Daily Targum article: "contribution to the rising conservative movement at Rutgers". Read the article. The DT mention of this "movement" uses weasel words. This "rising" is opinion, not backed by facts (the stated membership in the College Republicans is irrelevant).  The article is poor with uninteresting quotes and just generally bland, and I suggest its removal altogether. I'm sure there are sources that better explain the Centurion's movives, which weren't butchered by a college reporter.

message: You know, I'm getting sick of having to correct the ridiculous amount of biased material that is written on this wiki. The Centurion has not been accused of libel or harassment; writing that is an outright lie.
Secondly, to claim that the reaction of students is mixed, consisting of either simply amusement or the belief that it is antagonistic and does not reflect true conservative views, is also a lie. While some people do share those sentiments, a great deal of others applaud The Centurion's efforts.
The point of Wikipedia is to be an unbiased source of information. Therefore, I would ask those who edit this page to cease posting these ridiculously biased comments. Save that for your blogs.
Thank you. --128.6.30.204 03:13, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

I no longer see any signs of obvious bias. The nomination should be revoked.

message: I see a lot of fellow Rutgers University allumnus and current students editing here. So, if anyone is not to busy it would be good if anyone could help expand the "The Daily Targum" article. Thank you.--Jersey Devil 23:04, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

message: In the controversy section there is mention of the magazine's criticism of a Lenin Peace Prize-recipient for his relationship to the Soviet Union. How is this a controversy since the Prize was awarded to "prominent Communists and supporters of the Soviet Union". Given the Cold War-shaped political culture of the United States isn't this a commonplace view? Dimadick (talk) 08:45, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
