Talk:L. Neil Smith

message: I was at the 2004 Libertarian Convention, and I'm highly skeptical of the statement at L. Neil Smith supporters strongly influenced Badnarik's nomination. Does anyone have a citation or evidence for these assertions? -- Seth Ilys 23:48, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  2004 Libertarian Convention 

message: Hi all
I am a libertarian.  I had not heard of L. Neil Smith before now.  My interest was picqued by the article.  Unfortunately, the author(s) of the article (Mr Smith? his agent? supporters?) have disappointed me by inserting a brazen pitch for a new novel and even included his agent's contact details!  I think  this is a bit cheeky.  
If an author or his supporters wish to promote a book they should pay for it; they should not rely on the generosity of others who give time and money to make Wiki work.  If every business were to have their own page that included information regarding the availability of upcoming products, Wikipedia would probably become unworkable and certainly very tedious.
Not only is the promotion of products and/or services a breach of Wiki etiquette, it would also seem to be run counter to libertarian beliefs. If you want to promote a product then pay for that service. Otherwise you are simply a freeloader and a hipocrite.
I don't think that the article should be deleted but I do think the relevant paragraph should be removed.  
What do you think?
Thanks

Wouldn't it be more meaningful to show their fraction of the vote in Arizona (where they were on the ballot)? —Tamfang (talk) 21:32, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
