No Plagiarism
Let's try to keep this page clear of plagiarism, such as the language regarding the TR Film Collection that I just had to expunge. See edit discussion. I'll check balance of page for plagiarism when I have time. - Tedhead 13:44, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for continued article changes/improvements
Never expected this article to be boring as the TRA has become somewhat controversial in recent years. It's great to see the interest that's been generated in the activities of the TRA since this article was started. I pulled in virtually all the original language on the TR Film collection from other sources. Re apparent plagiarism - I trying to get as much info up on the article to be edited at a later time. Glad to see that part reworked. SimonATL 10:46, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Let's keep the tone of discourse on the TRA on a even keel
Many people from both within and without the TRA are beginning to edit this article. Let's keep the tone above board and stick to the facts. The TRA is going through a period of its greatest change since its founding in 1920. Many voices are making demands and pursuing their respective agendas. Let's discuss those agendas here as opposed to within the article itself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.103.164.235 (talk) 17:16, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Political Affiliations of the TRA Executive Board
Tedhead/TRAvenger and other TRA critics -

Here's a recent list of Executive Board Members of the TRA per the web site which is out of date and I've asked for the most recent list. You've noted correctly the political affiliations of 3 board members. But how does that make a "majority?" Working with the list below and the updated one which I hope to provide, can you (or anyone, for that matter) say what the political affiliation of all these people are? And just HOW do you KNOW what that affiliation is? If the TRA has slid all the way to the far right, please demonstrate this. Are you maintaining that there some kind of political litmus test for TRA executive board membership? Just how do you know this, from reading articles and looking at web sites or from so-called "inside information?"

Article Reorganization
As the section on politics and the TRA grew into a major section, I moved down from the history sections and recent activities and the discussion of the new facility. The question is probably whether it should be before or after the new facility discussion. SimonATL 01:25, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
