Talk:Intellectual freedom

message: I added this link but another person removed it saying in history is was "dead."  I test it even now and it is not dead.  Further, while it is merely a lowly blog, this particular blog draws the attention of and includes the writings of dozens of authors on the topic of Intellectual Freedom.  I say it should be included.

What do others think?  Thank you. --SafeLibraries 01:08, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia guidelines on external links includes under "Links to be avoided": "11. Links to blogs and personal webpages, except those written by a recognized authority."  I don't know that this blog passes the threshhold, but I will leave it for someone else to remove or debate the inclusion of it.  -- Pastordavid 08:52, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: AS IF! Authors Support Intellectual Freedom

message: In light of the fact that there is a section for intellectual freedom under totalitarian regimes I thought it might be relevant to include a section on intellectual freedom in democratic countries during times of crises. I'd like to use as an example the situation around civil rights and freedom of speech during WW2 in Canada and doing so by citing the War Measures Act, the Defence of Canada Regulations, and the Padlaw Act (in Quebec). In doing so I'd like to draw attention to a few particular individuals who attempted to bring civil rights abuses to the public eye at the time. Any thoughts or suggestions? I plan on adding it soon.

thread_title: New Addition

message: I added one brief sentence on the origins of intellectual freedom as a concept to the first section, as there wasn't anything that mentioned how it originated.
I also added a sub-section on the Intellectual Freedom Manual to the Intellectual Freedom and Librarianship section. It seems to be the essential text (at least in the U.S.) on intellectual freedom and its relation to libraries, so I felt it was worthy of including. I welcome any feedback.Ari Tea (talk) 04:36, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: New(er) Addition

message: @ many thanks for your great expansion of the article recently! The history section is U.S.-only. Is the claim about the contemporary definition being developed through U.S. cases true globally? It could use a citation for that. If it is not the case, the section is extensive enough that maybe there should be an Intellectual freedom in the United States article? Thanks again, not complaining, just wanted to begin a discussion about the section. Mike Linksvayer (talk) 03:45, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
