message: Um, shouldn't the fact that FEER was effectively closed down in 2004 be noted in the entry? How many people would even consider the new monthly 'FEER' to be the 'genuine article'? Bathrobe

thread_title:  avoiding plagiarism  

message: Dear FEER groupmates, 
Don't get stuck on what is or is not plagiarism.  What your entry needs right now is editing.  Trim each of your sections so that it is accurate, concise and of neutral point of view -- avoid phrases like "premier magazine report" or "Review acquires the “Thought leadership" and earns its reputable influence throughout Asia" -- according to whom?  Many of your sections can be combined (for example, Inaugurator and History section, some should be reorganized, for example, Influence section should go before Editorial team.  I would suggest you STOP adding to the entry and only edit. 
Note on plagiarism -- copying whole sentences like "Politics and economics being connatural, it will be inevitable that this publication may at times appear to transgress its primary objective by reporting on, and dealing with, political affairs" even if you refer to the original passage is both redundant and unnecessary, unless you think it is something that should be quoted.  The languagee sounds out of place. Can anyone tell me what "connatural" mean?
According to the FEER fact sheet, it says they have 20,000 subscription copies, yet your entry also says the circulation is roughly 100,000.  Which one is it?  You may need to carefully distinguish what facts belong to FEER when it was a weekly magazine to a monthly magazine.  0101TA 11:04, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Singapore ban

message: This sentence tried to indirectly add a point of view to this article:
::Just a day earlier, PM Lee had called for "responsible journalism" in his speech at the 7th Asian-European Editors' Forum .
The reference does not mention the FEER and it can therefore only be assumed that PM Lee was referring to the journal. If we were to leave the article unchanged it would suggest the FEER article was "unresponsible" which is a POV. It needs to be said that Hugo Restall rejects this accusation. However, I am also open to deleting the whole sentence because, like I said, PM Lee does not mention the FEER. --Ghormax 13:13, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I was the one who added that sentence. I added it without the intention to introduce POV, but to point out the fact that coincidentally, the PM chose to highlight "responsible journalism" in a forum just as the issue was beginning to rumble. I added this to indicate the sg govt's current stand, which is not neccesarily a stand of mine.--Huaiwei 13:26, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

message: About the section Independent Journalistic Establishments:
The title phrase also appears in the first sentence, and I don't understand what it's supposed to mean. Did FEER sponsor journalistic projects independent of FEER? Or were they projects independent of local institutions but part of FEER? Did FEER publish good articles and someone called those articles "establishments"? If someone can, either add content that follows the section title or edit the section title to fit the section's content.
And this is in the section: "the report on where chairman Mao Zedong, the Cultural Revolution and the economic opening initiated by Deng Xiaoping." I don't know how to edit it.
Thanks.
