Talk:Kimberley Strassel

message: I am going to seek comments in the Wikipedia namespace on the appropriateness of wikilinking portions of quotations. In the mean time could you please hold off on wikilinking inside quotations in this article? I see the Wikipedia:Build the web policy but no where does it state that quotations must contain wikilinks, and it can't possibly require that this article must contain exactly the wikilinks you want.

replies: text: Deference should be given to those pointing out the possibility of taint. Hollow are the Ori 22:38, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't a WP:OFFICE action we're talking about here, it's some wikilinks.  Since you (and only you) are the one who wants to change the standard way of doing things, it's you who should be deferring to traditional WP style until there's a consensus for your preferred style.

replies: text: Deciding what is and what is not wikilinked is highly disputed all over wikipedia so I don't know where you are coming from. The Wikipedia:Build the web policy you or someone referenced does not specifically mention quotations and certainly is not justification that quotations must contain wikilinks.

replies: text: I'm not sure that anything must be linked, but certainly if you want to remove useful links against consensus and the established way of doing things you need more than your personal style preference. Gamaliel 22:55, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I would not characterize ensuring the untaintedness of quotations as a "personal style preference". Hollow are the Ori 23:01, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Please hold off on adding quotation wikilinks 

message: A proposal relating to a dispute over this article has been created at Wikipedia:Quotations should not contain wikilinks, please discuss on that proposal's discussion page. Hollow are the Ori 23:19, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  FYI: [[Wikipedia:Quotations should not contain wikilinks|Quotations should not contain wikilinks]] proposal  

message: The quote section could be dovetailed into a one or two paragraph statement explaining Strassel's views. This could be done in an NPOV way and would allow for plenty of wikilinking.

message: I am on a self-imposed monthlong holiday from editing WP articles, but I would like to point out that quotations are not italicized in the English-language WP and would request another editor to put them all into Roman. GeorgeLouis (talk) 19:00, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

message: Shortly before the November 2020 election, Strassel push unverified claims about Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden.[10] Strassel's claims, published in an editorial in the Wall Street Journal, were contradicted by the Wall Street Journal's own reporting arm.[11]  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Genericuser1234 (talk • contribs) 16:27, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Did a copyedit on the text. It fully reflects what the source says. Lard Almighty (talk) 16:37, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

text: The text is accurate. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 17:41, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  The editor "Yodabyte" just added egregious weasel wording that makes it unclear to readers that Strassel was pushing unverified conspiracy theories about Hunter Biden and Joe Biden. The editor made it seem as if she was reporting on claims made by others when she in fact was the one pushing the conspiracy drivel. The text also makes it unclear to readers that she is not a reporter. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 17:47, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: This is blatantly untrue, please go back and examine the tweaks I made. I was trying to add neutrality and correct weasel wording that unfortunately still remains in the article. Yodabyte (talk) 18:11, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I've changed "pushed" to "promoted". It's less POV. Lard Almighty (talk) 06:46, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
