Talk:Roger Cohen

message: Barely an objective article. Words like "virulently anti-Israel" should and could be replaced by different wordings like "critical of Israel". The same goes for "minimized the oppression..." and others. This article is more than clearly biased. Perhaps it's good for the blogosphere but not for wikipedia. If one is unable too control one's political ideas, perhaps one shouldn't edit Wikipedia pages.

thread_title:  Objectivity 

message: This is opinion, not fact. It's also highly inflammatory, and a BLP violation. I can see that editors have tried to have me blocked for pointing this out. But a BLP violation is a BLP violation.
The best thing to do is to quote Cohen himself, and to link to his articles/statements/appearances themselves. We should let the reader decide their opinions. Here, we must stick to facts. The Squicks (talk) 03:09, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cohen is "anti-Israel" and "pro-Iranian nukes" 

message: I'm sick of the stupid edit warring about this rather than talking.
Anways, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard/Archive64#Roger_Cohen
There was no consensus of editors in any direction. Three editors supported the inclusion of the paragraph and three did not. The discussion was not resolved. If it is to be resolved, please post here. The Squicks (talk) 20:48, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I am sorry, but the BLP discussion seems resolved to me. The policy of WP:COATRACK is clear, and three administrators commented that the edit you are trying to add is a violation of WP:COATRACK. Your refusal to accept the consensus on BLP board is puzzling to me. --NewLionDragon (talk) 21:06, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deletions 

message: Cohen has taken several different positions on different Iran-related issue, so we can not equivocally say that "he has changed his position on Iran" , which "position" are we talking about here? Is he advocating military action against Iran? Is he retracting his comments on Iranian Jews? The answer is no and no. This edit  is is a clear violation of WP:OR and WP:Weasel, since it is an OR interpretation and characterization of Cohen's latest comments. Please stick to what Cohen actually says, without any interpretation, and let the readers decide for themselves what it means. --Kurdo777 (talk) 23:16, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: He wrote "I erred", which is not something that there is room for interpretation about. He changed his opinion. The Squicks (talk) 07:05, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

message: An MA degree from Oxford, about the time Cohen graduated, is an honorary degree -- given to those who graduated with an undergraduate degree. 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Arts_(Oxbridge_and_Dublin)
The article needs to clarify whether it refers to the honorary degree or to a degree awarded for postgraduate studies. At present, it reads as if Cohen studied for two postgraduate degrees. If this is correct, it should be written with the proper nomenclature (Master of Studies). Does anyone have more information?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.218.243.152 (talk) 11:50, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
