Talk:Kevin Pina (journalist)

message: The recent edit suggesting we should look at the long list of articles was appropriate. I looked them, all links are current and all the information is related to Pina's reporting from Haiti and about Haiti. Ostensibly this was the point.
:What I meant was I didn't see why it was encyclopedic to have a list of articles he's written (about) twice the length of the rest of the article. Surely they are not all particularly relevant and we need to be selective: a long list of a lot of stuff he's written without analysis and discussion isn't really what I would expect from an encylopedia. Can we prune the list? (i.e., I didn't mean "these are irrelevant", I meant "although these are relevant in general, there is no reason to list individual articles that do not appear to be of particular interest - if he's a journalist one would expect him to have written articles"). I hope that makes a degree of sense. 128.232.241.211 (talk) 23:43, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

message: The article makes some crazy allegations, such as Pina being a crackhead and/or alcoholic, without providing any sources.
:Well, the article is certainly POV now.  It reads like a Pina-for-President ad.  Aranhamo 04:42, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I know Pina and know he was reported as becoming a political prisoner in Nov 05.. I have not read one report from him since and am concerned. Anyone know anything? CyberAnth 08:37, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I've heard Kevin for years on Flashpoints and I know he does great work. But these lists are FAR too long -- way out of proportion for a Wiki bio article, so they really do need to be cut back to a more appropriate length. Cgingold (talk) 03:25, 23 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I've simply removed the CV-like article list for now; it seems that the article already contains sufficient summaries of his reporting. -- Khazar (talk) 07:27, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

text: Michael Deibert never denied that while working for Reuters in Haiti he regularly provided money and resources to his informants in Cite Soleil.
This appears to be a response to something that hasn't been mentioned here so it either needs to be explained more with citations or removed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wevers2000 (talk • contribs) 19:41, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
