Talk:Tracy Morgan

Csection added to question the neutrality of the "Controversy" section?
I just noticed that someone added a template to question the neutrality of the "Controversy" section of this article, but that person did not post on the Talk Page to discuss making this move.

I'm honestly confused as to why that was added and the specific reasoning, and I say that as someone who has no investment in Tracy Morgan's career. I would just like to see an explanation for what is wrong with that section so it could potentially be improved. I'll also tag the user who placed the template there.

@FMSky - Usually, before you place a template like that, you post on the article's Talk Page to gain a consensus from other editors, or at least to explain why you did, or mention something in an edit note. You did not post on the Talk Page or leave an edit note explaining why you did that. Your edit note only addressed removing some information that had Fox News as a source (which I agree with). I should make it clear - I don't necessarily have a problem with the Csection template being there! But I was just confused because it didn't seem any different or more inappropriate from other articles that have "Controversy" sections. Elaboration would be appreciated :)

Actually, I'm updating this to state that I just read WP:CRITICISM and I totally see your point now. I apologize!

I don't really see how that information can remain in the article, though, given that it doesn't seem that most of it would flow with any other sections of the article. It almost seems as if the information would ideally be removed entirely (maybe with the exception of the 2022 lawsuit, since that would flow decently with the part of the article discussing his career as a whole). The other info seems like it would only be suited for a "Controversies" section. What are your thoughts? Afddiary (talk) 19:27, 28 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, i didnt know you had to start a talk page discussion before placing a template, thats honestly news to be. But yes, i placed it because its discouraged per WP:CRITICISM as you noted (or more specifically WP:CSECTION). Normally i would just incorporate the section into others but in this case it is indeed not so easy --FMSky (talk) 06:43, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
