Talk:Donald Wildmon

message: I removed unsourced, potentially libelous information that Wildmon was outed by a homosexual prostitute per Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons. There was no citation for it, and I could find no information about in on the internet.Everyguy (talk) 05:39, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Alleged Outing by Homosexual Prostitute

message: Personally, I can't stand this guy, so I can sympathize with the writer(s) of this article. But that's not what Wikipedia is supposed to be about.  The current article seems fairly biased against him.  I'm frankly surprised that the article hasn't had a more contentious history, but perhaps Wildmon's followers are not adept at editing Wikipedia. 
In any case, Wildmon is fairly important among the Christian right, and runs a rather large activist mailing list, and there's a lot of indication his boycotts and petitions on companies like Ford and ABC, etc. have some effect.  His themes have been consistent, too -- he's something of a modern Bowdler or Comstock -- very concerned with "potty mouth" media and any mainstream commercial expressions that even slightly push the envelope of sexual expression.  His other main obsession is homosexuality -- since he believes this is a choice not a biological predilection, he  sees gay activists as activists pushing a willfully perverse "lifestyle."  He runs several websites and newsletters.  I mention all of this as unsourced background material.  I'm hoping the article will be taken on by both supporters and detractors in the hope of getting a better rounded picture of the man.  He is important, and (even though I dislike his agenda very much) "deserves" a fuller entry in Wikipedia.  StrangeAttractor (talk) 03:18, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I did some revising and removed the BLP dispute template. Looks like the potentially libelous claims have been removed, 'though there are still sourcing issues. If someone doesn't source the account of the lawsuit about the film, I'll support deleting all mention of it. — 131.204.184.5 (talk) 16:30, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

text: If anything this page is biased in his favor. For example, it makes no mention of his flagrant anti-Semitism. 75.76.213.106 (talk) 01:42, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed the "portrayals" section.  It is not sourced and mockeries of the subject do not belong in a BLP.  George Carlin's opinions and stand-up routine belong on his BLP.Malke 2010 (talk) 14:53, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

message: I found numerous sources, including some already in this article that state Wildmon was born in Dumas, Mississippi. I cannot view the source cited that states he was born in Ripley...can anyone shed more light on this? — Jacona (talk) 15:09, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
