Talk:Laura Whitehorn

message: If Ted Kaczynski https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Kaczynski is described as a domestic terrorist for bombings shouldn't Laura Whitehorn also be described as a domestic terrorist for her bombing(s)? --DevilTrombone (talk) 04:06, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Ted was convicted of illegally transporting, mailing, and using bombs, and three counts of murder. Laura was convicted of conspiring and damaging government buildings. I believe based on these precise convictions that Ted is somewhat more of a terrorist. We must remember in this discussion what the convictions were, as we cannot exceed them, regardless of what else we know in the details of each crime. Mcfnord (talk) 02:54, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

When it was tagged, it fell under criteria A1, which says that articles that are very short and have little or no context can be deleted immediately.  It's just a mechanism that we use to keep the encyclopedia as clean as possible.  As it no longer qualifies, I declined the speedy deletion.

thread_title: Proposed deletion

message: Ok, so I've been going through trying to clean up the format of the citations, but the cited website for the Anarchist Black Cross Federation is "under construction", showing no material. It would be great of an alternative source for this info could be provided. As well, the other website, which is noted as an interview of Laura Whitehorn by Abel, Sheryl appears to be something written by Whitehorn, but I don't see Abel's name anywhere on it. Am I missing something? Or is the web address incorrect? Murderbike (talk) 19:29, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As well, the citation that was listed as "Critical Mass" has been removed, as blogs are not reliable sources. I've reworded the statement attributed, and added a "citation needed" tag to it. If the original Wall Street Journal editorial can be found, that would be fine, but as it was is not acceptable.

replies: text: I've gone ahead and removed several items from the "References" section, as they don't need to be listed after they've been listed in the "Notes" section. Ideally, all of the references will properly cited in the body of the article, so that they don't have to be repeated in the "References" section, making it obsolete, and removable.

replies: text: And now that I've looked at the reference from www.discoverthenetworks.org, I've gotta say that hardly meets the requirements for a reliable source. It's absurdly biased, and unprofessional to say the least. The statement cited is fairly benign, but I'm gonna remove the cite anyway, and add another "citation needed" tag. If someone could resource it, that'd be great. Murderbike (talk) 21:22, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There are two citations listed as "Whitehorn, Laura. (2007)", but nothing in the "References" section with that author, and that date. These need to be fixed. As well, can the FBI Files source be clarified? Is this a book? Did someone have access to files in some way? And the archives of the Women's School Records? Sources need to be verifiable by other editors. Murderbike (talk) 21:28, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

text: It seems to be a pamphlet, one link here. --CliffC 02:42, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

text: OK, I've got all the refs standardized that I can do, now we just need to figure out what the "Whitehorn, Laura 2007" ref is referring to, and clear up the Women's School Records Archives thing. Who wants to clear these up before I just remove them and put "citation needed" tags on them? Murderbike 00:03, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Citations 

message: The article states, citing Whitehorn's 2003 article "Fighting to Get Them Out",  
But those were not the charges, that quote is based on a statement in the indictment of the group's goals; and that's why they appear rather wishy-washy as legal charges.  If that's what Whitehorn's article actually says, as opposed to there simply being a misreading of it somewhere along the line, her statement is false.  For the record, The New York Times says   (slightly different wording). I'll add the actual charges to the paragraph and identify the corrected goals as goals.  --CliffC 01:40, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
