message: Does anyone have the skill to add this book  to wikisource? I believe Tolstoy left all his work to public domain on his death.  --nirvana2013 20:05, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

message: This article seems to attribute the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" to Jesus Christ. Maybe some cleanup is in order? Smithfarm 12:16, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know if the title in question makes that assertion, but that particular passage is part of the decalogue and not attributed to a saying of Jesus Christ.  However, Christianity maintains that the decalogue was given by God and Christ was also God, so Tolstoy may have been making his statement in that context.  Regardless, I think you are correct in that some reference should be made to the origin of the concept of 'thou shalt not murder.' 66.191.19.183 23:55, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

message: This article needs to be re-written so that it isn't opinionated.  Just present his ideas.   Not your opinion about those ideas.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.30.88.47 (talk) 21:54, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Clean Up?

message: "Tolstoy recounted challenges by people of all classes that his views on non-resistance were wrong, but argued that no matter how the challengers tried to attack the doctrine, its essence could not be overcome."
This seems like a pretty clear cut case of bias.

replies: text: Why, yes, Tolstoy was biased towards Tolstoy's point of view. What's wrong with that? — Sebastian 18:29, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Fixed that sentence. What was wrong? It was off-topic (that is, it said nothing meaningful about the article's topic) and unsourced. At the same time it made two misleading generalizations: "people of all classes" could be misunderstood as "all classes of people", "essence could not be overcome" could be misunderstood as a encyclopedic fact not as a Tolstoy's opinion. --Kubanczyk (talk) 10:01, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article Bias 

message: I think it's pretty clear what needs to be cleaned up in this article... There is no sourced information on its background, development, or reception, which leaves undue weight for the parts that are there (a coatrack for the Gandhi section). czar 15:24, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  I tried to change and reformat a little bit, but was hampered by the fact I haven't finished reading the book yet.  Hopefully, I can add more to this page relatively soon. - Borderlandor (talk) 04:40, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
