Talk:Bruce Bawer

message: Doesn't this opening statement of "Three Radicals: Inside Europe's Leftist Elite", or a paraphrasing of it, merits inclusion in the article?

thread_title:  Pivotal quote to understand Bawer 

message: This article has 21 citations, and fully 19 of those are behind claims critical to a small party in Sweden.  I cannot see why a single article is garnering the bulk of all citations, and primarily as a criticism of a single party at a single issue that has very little to do with the net scope of Bawer's biography.  I'm leaning towards removing it to clean the article up. Dolewhite (talk)
:I was queried on my statements about the Sweden Democrats and included citations to support my claim. I have now simply reinserted the word "xenophobic", with source references to prove that the word is apt. If you think it constitutes too large a part of the article, then by all means flesh out the article as a whole.Ojevindlang (talk) 05:47, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have removed that paragraph after rereading the article. It's about a single, fairly unremarkable article written by Bawer – if you're going to write about every article he has published, great, but don't focus in on that one just because you don't like his argument in it.

thread_title:  HUGE tangent 

message: I've adjusted the language so it became somewhat more impartial than the wording previously used. In its prior form, this article was a fan article claiming that Bawer's depiction of Europe and Islam is the final, incontestable truth.Ojevindlang (talk) 00:21, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed Enormous Bias 

message: Bower has inspired Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik, quote wrom WSJ: "In his manifesto, which is written in such good English that one wonders whether he had the assistance of a native speaker, Breivik quotes approvingly and at length from my work, mentioning my name 22 times. It is chilling to think that blog entries that I composed in my home in west Oslo over the past couple of years were being read and copied out by this future mass-murderer in his home in west Oslo." --Magabund (talk) 20:17, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Inspiring mass-murder 

message: I have removed the following:
He also suggests a physical solution for the problem he perceives: "European officials have a clear route out of this nightmare. They have armies. They have police. They have prisons. They're in a position to deport planeloads of people everyday. They could start rescuing Europe tomorrow."[page needed]
I removed it because there was no reference to a book page, and I also could not find the text using a PDF version of the book. I tried multiple search terms. The cited text is not in the book.

message: I'd like to know is there truly a difference between one finding out their ancestry on their own through proper records vs someone doing the work for them in the same way finding the same resultsSeminolegirl94 (talk) 21:05, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The difference is between the type of source it is. If they write an essay, as this subject did, or talk about it in an interview, as have most of the others you've wanted to add to the verified cats, but provide no documentation that can be fact-checked, it's not something we can verify. If their comment is published in a stable source, it's WP:V/verifiable that they made the claim, but it's not verifiable that the claim is true, nor is it WP:RS/reliably sourced that the claim is true. Without the data being checked by expert genealogists, or even available to be looked at independently, we just don't know. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 21:15, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
