Talk:Brett Kimberlin

This article needs a NPOV
This article seriously needs a neutral point of view. I can see by the Talk Page that it is contentious article but the article, as it is, is biased and one-sided. It seems like editing this article has gotten way too personal for some users. Remember WP:BLP, WP:BATTLEGROUND, WP:POINT, WP:CALM and WP:NOTHERE!

Please do not remove the template until bias is reduced within the body of the article. It might be more quickly done if a user that is not involved in this political conflict is brought in to oversee a rewrite. 69.125.134.86 (talk) 18:23, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Details appear to have been added at Neutral_point_of_view/Noticeboard.  Sean.hoyland  - talk 18:56, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I do not understand the claim. The facts are accurately reported.  Indeed the numerous bogus lawsuits, SLAPP's, Kimberlain has initiated to are largely unreported on this page which seems rather complimentary to the old boy.  How much more neutral can one be? 50.32.126.56 (talk) 17:46, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

Ukraine business interests
In an interview in Washington's City Paper Brett Kimberlin talks about a post-jail business career doing export to the Ukraine among other things, including his music career (which seems to be separate from Justice Through Music). Before we get into another pointless dispute, can we have consensus that the source meets WP:RS and we can add his business and music career in the article? Feel free to nominate texts to cover the new news in the article. I just think that his business career is another aspect to the man's life that probably should be covered.

Yes it looks like a reliable source, albeit pretty dated. Capitalismojo (talk) 23:04, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Break for ease of editing
First draft responses (broken by paragraphs from original post):
 * Who put up the page is irrelevant. Clearly passes WP:GNG many people who are not "public figures" are notable. No actionable issues
 * Most of what he claims here as being "best known" is obvious bunk. There are not (many) WP:RS discussing his involvement as a father, employer, or musician. The vast majority of RS discuss him in the context of the bombings, pot, and recent controvercies. WP:WEIGHT is the policy here, and I see no evidence that we aren't following it
 * False imprisonment, won lawsuit : What WP:RS can be used to source this? If they exist, sure this could be included
 * It may or may not be speculation, but it is reliably sourced speculation.
 * Tovex : reliably sourced.
 * Dead links can probably be recovered from wayback
 * MJ bales : Reliably sourced.
 * Are there RS for the singer defamation suit? If so this could be included (and would perhaps be a reason to re-evaluate using the singer source so heavily)
 * He obviously was a suspect in Scyphers murder. its reliably sourced many times over. There may be issues with why he was a suspect. Are there sources for that?
 * source 34 (malkin) : Does seem like a low quality source, being used to back something which is sourced elsewhere. Seems like it might be a bit of WP:COATRACK and could be removed. ✅
 * source 37 : wayback

The remaining portion is WP:POLEMIC which shows either blatant disregard or gross misunderstanding of wikipedia policy. LegitPrivacySockBK (talk) 19:02, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I think we can offer a better response to his points -- we just need sources, e.g. for the successful defamation lawsuit. Mr Kimberlin, are you watching this page?  Nomoskedasticity (talk) 19:42, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I called out several places above asking for sources where some of his issues could potentially be addressed (although theymay be hard to see in all the points which cannot be addressed). I have bolded my responses for the ones that are actionable (imo) LegitPrivacySockBK (talk) 15:13, 14 March 2018 (UTC)
