Talk:Old Presbyterian Meeting House

Multiple Bias/References Issues
This article appears to have been partially or entirely written by the organization it describes, the Old Presbyterian Meeting House. Although I corrected a number of inline external links pointing to websites owned or affiliated with the organization (other than its official website, the website of its denomination, and the website of its cemetery, which is itself questionable.) The following issues were specifically noted in the text:


 * Conflict of Interest per WP:COI and WP:NPOV: The primary author of the vast bulk of the article, Bbathe has no contrib history except for this article, and due to the references, similarities in content, in-text references, and their edit comment, they appear to represent the church's history committee. This is not in itself bad, but it needs some balance.


 * Relies on One Source per WP:IRS: The article relies solely on the church's website for content and has no other independent sources.


 * No Footnotes per WP:CS: The article has no inline citations, making individual facts almost impossible to verify.


 * Source is Affiliated with Subject WP:IS and WP:NOR: The only source used to construct the article is the website of the organization it represents, which presents obvious neutrality issues.


 * More Sources Needed per WP:V and WP:CS: The article needs more sources to verify its claims.


 * Neutrality in Question per WP:NPOV: The section: The Church Today contains a number of bias issues, as the church is described using strong positive adjective rather than neutral, unbiased terms. The section trends toward espousing the virtues of the church rather then relating information about it.

If we can come to a consensus on this, then changes will be made. If no feedback is received, I will go ahead and attempt to correct the issue myself. Thanks, and I look forward to improving the article.
