Talk:Carla Martin

Request for Comment: Resume-like format
Schmetterling has added content that strongly resembles a resume and has not commented on his/her edits. Does anyone have an opinion about whether the content is appropriate? 02:17, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * While all the conduct is true, it does require cleanup. I've tagged it for cleanup - unless you want to wikify it yourself, to fit guidelines. Scalene •UserPage•Talk•Contributions•Biography• Є • 07:21, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Comment - this is definitely disturbing. Almost nothing in the resume-style article is sourced, and it leaves out the information which is best-sourced: the controversy over the Moussaoui trial. If single-purpose accounts persist in reverting this page without discussion, protection may be necessary. PubliusFL 19:19, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Comment: Quite the contrary-and that is precisely the point-the "content" in the original tab is  largely inaccurate, hence the need to more accurately portray the work and history of this particular person's biography. As far as sourcing, the reference section of this tab shows that virtually all the information in the edit IS sourced, either through the articles themselves, or through links within the edit.Schmetterling 15:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Please point out what is inaccurate in the shorter version of the article rather than just reverting to a resume. Like it or not, Ms. Martin is primarily notable for her involvement in the Moussaoui trial, and it is very inappropriate to have an article on her on Wikipedia that avoids any mention of this incident.

I have tried to flesh out this biography to add a little more context and a number of additional references. Hopefully everyone can agree that the current state of the article is reasonably balanced and NPOV. PubliusFL 17:27, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Repeated 3RR violations by Schmetterling
Schmetterling, the Washington Post appears to be a reliable source. If you believe that sourced information in an article is incorrect, provide us with better sources. You can't just assert that they're false and delete them. One wonders how you know better than the Washington Post about this case, unless you have a conflict of interest.

 * Resumed 3RR violations after 8 hour block for previous violations.
 * First report.  Second report.   — Athænara   ✉  08:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC)



The fourth account was used for another revert after the second block (31 hours). — Æ.  ✉  00:41, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Additional material
I've copied here (with links correction and paragraph breaks) two paragraphs repeatedly added by the (four so far known) Carla Martin accounts— Carla J. Martin is an American lawyer specializing in aviation law, who has worked on a number of high-profile cases arising out of terrorist acts. She graduated cum laude from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville in European History and German. After graduation, she was on a graduate fellowship in the University of Tennesse's Department of Germanic and Slavic Languages, where she taught first year and honors German. Later, she worked for World Airways, Inc. as a flight attendant before entering law school. Ms. Martin received her law degree from American University's Washington College of Law in Washington, D.C.  She began working at the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) while still in law school, and subsequently worked for several years on a number of aviation cases, including the Pan Am Flight 103/Lockerbie case, both the 1992 civil litigation trial in the Eastern District of New York before Chief Judge Platt, and the criminal case against the two Lockerbie defendants that took place in Zeist, the Netherlands in 2000. While working as a trial attorney for the FAA, Ms. Martin developed policies ensuring that sensitive aviation security information would be protected from public disclosure in civil and criminal litigation. Her case, Public Citizen, Aviation Consumer Action Project, and Families of Pan Am 103 v. FAA, 988 F.2d 186 (D.C.Cir. 1993) is one of the seminal federal cases cited for the protection and non-disclosure of sensitive security information (SSI). Ms. Martin moved to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) when that agency was formed in 2002. While still at the FAA, Ms. Martin began working on the case of United States v. Zacharias Moussaoui. She continued her work on that case after transferring to the TSA. In June 2002, Ms. Martin assisted in drafting a motion and protective order to protect SSI from being disclosed to defendant Moussaoui. Judge Brinkema granted the motion the same day it was filed, with the news of that motion and protective order receiving favorable press reviews. See, Moussaoui Trial Docket #174, "Motion by USA as to Zacharias Moussaoui for Protective Order Prohibiting Disclosure of Sensitive Aviation Security Information to Defendant." (June 11, 2002). —because they do contain some information which can be extracted and (with Attribution) properly included in the article. — Athænara  ✉  01:36, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
