Talk:B'nai Brith Canada

message: The previous edit does not reflect the overwhelming consensus of the organization’s grassroots members, consisting of thousands of families from across Canada.
:With respect, the consensus that matters here is the consensus of Wikipedia editors.  I have no objection to a separate article on B'nai Brith Canada - I suspect it meets notability requirements - but the version that I reverted was basically advertising copy.  Because of that, an editor requested that it be speedy deleted.  Instead of deleting it, I restored the redirect.
:I guess what I'm saying is, feel free to take another crack at writing an article for BBC specifically, but do so with a neutral point of view and in an encyclopaedic fashion. Sarcasticidealist (talk) 03:27, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've now restored an earlier, non-promotional version of the article.  CJCurrie (talk) 03:13, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

text: (i) CJCurrie did not write the edit in question, (ii) I can't help but notice the anon IP listed above has been criticized for vandalism several times, (iii) you don't have the right to delete pages you don't like.  CJCurrie (talk) 04:51, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I do agree that this article has some NPOV issues as it now exists, probably placing undue emphasis on the controversy.  I don't think that's reason to restore the redirect, but it would be nice if somebody with more knowledge of the subject than I have could add in some material less related to the controversy.

message: I have protected the article for one week due to persistent edit-warring.  Please try to reach consensus on this talk page for changes.  If you are unable to do so, please make use of WP:THIRD and/or WP:RFC. Sarcasticidealist (talk) 04:39, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've protected it again, this time for two weeks.  I think it would behoove our friend the I.P. to discuss changes here, lest their edits become viewed as vandalism, which may result in semi-protection (a state of affairs in which he/she couldn't edit, but others could).

message: Issue has been resolved. It’s also completely irrelevant and has no bearing on the organization’s scope of activity.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.231.232.30 (talk) 14:39, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  recent edit 

message: I've added an "undue weight" tag to the MHRC section, per my comments in a prior edit summary. I do not dispute that the subject matter is encyclopedic, but the length and level of detail are completely unwarranted. I could add that this problem has also surfaced on other pages dealing with Human Rights Commissions in Canada. CJCurrie (talk) 23:24, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Again, I am not questioning that the subject matter is appropriate to this article. What I take issue with is its length and excessive detail. (I realize some people might find this ironic, given that I'm known for writing long pages. My response is that I'm not in the habit of going into this much detail about a single development.) CJCurrie (talk) 01:04, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

text: I fail to see why this section of the article being so detailed is unwarranted. A five-year investigation by the MHRC against B'nai Brith on the basis of a few hearsay statements, which cost millions of taxpayer dollars, and which B'nai Brith was not even allowed to see the "evidence" against it, is certainly notable.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 01:10, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: B'nai Brith Canada has been around for a long period of time and has been involved in numerous public campaigns and controversies. There's no need for this one particular matter to take up half the article. Concerning your arguments in defense of BBC, I can only say that they are irrelevant to questions of length and detail. CJCurrie (talk) 01:20, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: On the contrary, a full explanation as to the circumstances of the investigation and the results are certainly relevant.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 01:26, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: A summary of the key points is sufficient. And I'll grant that we're closer now. CJCurrie (talk) 01:39, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's current configuration is fine. I'm reluctant to remove the specific criticisms of the investigation and B'nai Brith's response.(Hyperionsteel (talk) 06:02, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
