Talk:Masanjia re-education through labor camp

POV-check PLEASE
This page is exteremely biased; it is propaganda from Falun Gong IMHO.

Just look at all the references:

1) blogs from Wordpress very likely written by Falun Gong disciple qualify as reliable source?

2) Look at all the self-publication - all the pro-Falun Gong/anti-China sources are cited from Falun Gong affaliates:
 * FLGhrwg.net
 * ClearHarmony.net
 * Faluninfo.net
 * fofg.org - quasi-government organization founded by Congressman Tom Lanto's wife, operated by Embassador Mark Palmer. FoF IRS Form 990, page 4 list of directors, 2001.
 * Epoch Times - FLG affiliated media CRS Report page CRS-8 list of Falun Gong affiliated media
 * flgjustice.org
 * falundafa-florida.org

Come on! --unsigned comment by Bobby fletcher
 * Sure and if you take a look, you have also inserted sources from the PRC. Which makes the article balanced, wouldn't you agree? --HappyInGeneral (talk) 10:38, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Happy please correct yourself - I have not inserted any sources from the PRC.
 * None the less, your false response does not address the problem of blogs being non-notable, and the numerous self-publishing sources listed above.

The New York Times article contains more or less the same information as Epoch Times but is somewhat broader in coverage. I don't there there is a point of view problem here; just a difficult matter that is hard to deal with adequately. User:Fred Bauder Talk 15:31, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Notability issue scrutinized

 * Wordpress sources are blogs. Heck 1st link is even depricated.

Letter found in Halloween set -- unverified
FYI, the Oregonian article doesn't state that the letter is from the camp--just that the letter mentions the camp by name. Nothing has been proven so far, hence I am removing that section.

Also, who is Benpais? Hopefully he is not a sockpuppet of people who have been topic banned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.222.42.29 (talk) 17:47, 25 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Pretty good source in The New York Times that that particular item did come from this camp. User:Fred Bauder Talk 15:31, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
