Talk:Jeff Roe

Christine Hanaway' 2016 gubernatorial campaign
I don't see how there could be any doubts on the fact that Jeff Roe is involved in Christine Hanaway's campaign. I included a Politicmo and an NPR link. Also, US Senator Jack Danforth did call Jeff Roe a bully following Tom Schweich's suicide. This was covered widely by the media and is mentioned in the NPR link. These two facts are verifiable and don't have any partisan approach. They are not opinions, just facts.
 * You undid three edits that addressed Roe's involvement in Hanaway's campaign, sometimes citing WP:BLP as a reason. Could you please be more specific?


 * Hi, and thanks for initiating a discussion here. WP:BLP refers to Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons. I'd encourage you to familiarize yourself with the full policy, but this portion gives a good sense of the policy's intent: "Biographies of living persons (BLPs) must be written conservatively and with regard for the subject's privacy. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid: it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives; the possibility of harm to living subjects must always be considered when exercising editorial judgment." As you've noted, I've repeatedly removed information that's been added to the article that appears to me to insinuate that Jeff Roe had something to do with the suicide of Tom Schweich. IMO, that is a contentious, titillating claim (gossip, really) and it's irresponsible of Wikipedia to be a vehicle for spreading it. As for the quote about Roe being a bully, the relevant policy is WP:IMPARTIAL: "Try not to quote directly from participants engaged in a heated dispute; instead, summarize and present the arguments in an impartial tone." Thanks. Safehaven86 (talk) 15:39, 27 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your response. I feel the latest edits you made (Latest revision as of 15:56, 27 April 2015) represent an acceptable compromise. Thank you for that. And I agree with you that an explicit mention of Tom Schweich's suicide on Jeff Roe's page may be seen as controversial by some. I also agree that John Danforth's quote may be in violation of the WP:IMPARTIAL policy. Finally I'm glad we could agree that his involvement in Catherine Hanaway's campaign is an indisputable fact. Thank you. BKroust (talk) 18:47, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Is this a marketing page?
This article feels bought and paid for. This is a shameful exhibit. It needs to be rewritten or deleted. 73.60.212.174 (talk) 16:54, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
