Talk:David G. Wallace

message: This so-called controversy involves the Police Chief of Sugar Land, not the Mayor David Wallace.  This so-called controversy was placed in the article by an anon Wikipedian (216.119.136.130).   It is supported, not by a newspaper article, but by a chat room reference.  This is the bio of a living person and as such there needs to be a higher standard applied to the so-called allegations placed in the article. See Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. I'm going to remove the so-called controversy by the anon Wikipedian, unless somehow someone can explain to me how the actions of a drunken police officer are the fault of Wallace.  No where that I could see in this hit and run by the anon Wikipedian is there evidence that the Mayor acted inappropriately. --Getaway 14:57, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Drunk Police Officer Incident

message: Once again, the anon Wikipedian (216.119.136.130)  put in a so-called controversy about the arrest of drinking teens.  Once again, the so-called controversy was about the arrest of teenagers for underage drinking.  Once again, it had nothing or very damn little to do with David Wallace.  One of the teens was the child of the FORMER Mayor of Sugar Land!!!  What hogwash!  I removed it.  The actions of this anon Wikipedian reminds of that old song in Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. . ."Can you believe it? There's a whorehouse in Texas! Oh, my!"  "There is underage drinking in Sugar Land! Oh, my!"  Man, are the Dems in Texas desparate or what??? --Getaway 15:02, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I appreciate the offer; however, that is not the only problem (verifiability).  There are other problems.  Some of the entries are redundant and the whole section is way, way too long for the article, considering that David G. Wallace is such a minor figure in politics.  He is NOT President Bush, for example.  He is not even Robert Byrd.  His importance does not qualify him for a page that long. Finallly, not all of that information is appropriate for an encyclopedia.  I just if you proved to me that ALL of the information was true, which I'm not convinced it is--maybe some of it, then it should take up one small three or four sentence paragraph at best.  Especially, since he will not be the endorsed Republican candidate for Delay's seat and since he has announced that he is not running for re-election.--Getaway 23:10, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I will point out that this information is a large part of why David Wallace is NOT the endorsed candidate.  As such, the information is certainly appropriate in some form or fashion -- and I am open to negotiating how to include it.--RhymesWithRight 15:38, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
