thread_title:  Need to update reference to Joe Arpaio article 

message: "Related to the Wilcox indictment, and a subsequent attempt by the MCSO to intimidate her attorney, The Arizona Republic editorialized that Thomas and Arpaio were misusing their powers to "intimidate and harass their political enemies."[51]"  SHOULD BE CHANGED TO SAY "....The Arizona Republic STATED that Thomas and Arpaio were misusing their powers to "intimidate and harass their political enemies."[51]"
USE OF THE WORD "EDITORIALIZED" IN THIS CONTEXT IS, IN FACT, ITSELF A WAY OF EDITORIALIZING. 38.104.7.2 (talk) 19:31, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Not going to implement this right now because I think this needs wider consensus. Reading the source itself, the Arizona Republic article does say "OPINIONS" at the top, which suggests that this is an editorial, not a news article. In this case, the use of the word "" would be appropriate under the definition of the word "to set forth one's position or opinion on some subject in, or as if in, an editorial." I am aware of the other definition of editorialize, "to inject personal interpretations or opinions into an otherwise factual account.", which may make the word seem negative to some. If someone thinks that violates WP:IMPARTIAL, we could change the word to "" or "". I am against using just the word "", though, because that gives the impression that the statement was a result of news reporting by the Arizona Republic, not an editorial. Per WP:RSEDITORIAL, editorials can only be used as primary sources for the authors' opinions, and must be clearly attributed as such. Liu1126 (talk) 10:32, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe we should replace the cited source with this one, which states more or less the same thing: "Thomas and Arpaio began to attack their political enemies, charging judges and county supervisors with crimes and filing a racketeering suit against them in federal court. All of those cases fell apart." Replacing the old source with this one should solve the problem. M.Bitton (talk) 15:14, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

text: Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the  template. Perhaps 's suggestion would resolve this. But for now, since this was responded to with objection by  and a brief discussion, I'm marking this as responded-to and as needing consensus. -- Pinchme123 (talk) 02:48, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
