Talk:Troy Buswell

Work in progress. I'll be out all day, but will finish when I get back. Orderinchaos 23:58, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Can someone else try a bare ref conversion for this page? It keeps giving off an edit conflict warning for some reason. Timeshift (talk) 14:14, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Can we try to balance the Liberal/Labor articles out a little? It's fine for Buswell's controversies to be listed here like this, but go take a look at Alan Carpenter's entry - No mention of the blouse lifting/bra exposing incident whatsoever.70.180.211.82 (talk) 18:50, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Different cases. Buswell's controversies have been given substance by the existence of witnesses not afraid to talk to the media. Relevant witnesses to Carpenter's alleged blouse lifting incident have so far dismissed it as baseless.--Armyable (talk) 17:24, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

the Party going forward, boldly
A few days ago, I made these edits: Another editor then reverted all of these edits with the comment "Relevant". I'm assuming that the intent was to restore the "personal leave" text, it being relevant to current events, and that the reversion of all the other edits was simply a mistake. Thus I'm re-applying the other edits (eg removing the excess bold, capitalisation, "going forward"). If anyone disagrees with those edits, I ask that we discuss them on the talk page.

 * removed some unnecessary bolding of text
 * deleted paragraph about personal leave - this text has subsequently been removed or and merged into other text.
 * deleted the meaningless "going forward"
 * uncapitalised "party" because it's not a proper noun here
 * uncapitalised "dry"


 * go back and join the circus/zoo if you wish - every dog is joining in now anyways - well beyond that point by now... somewhat belated... satusuro 12:44, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Controversies: Sources
It seems to me that the article could be substantially improved if the list of 7 different controversies between 2008 and 2012 that it refers to didn't all cite the same source. Wouldn't separate sources from the times at which the allegations in question where individually made be more appropriate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.206.110.66 (talk) 12:38, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Comment
Please tread carefully. Note that this article is about the subject, not what others think or speculate about the subject, particularly given the circumstances. Moondyne (talk) 01:32, 11 March 2014 (UTC)


 * In the interests of WP:BLP, WP:NOTNEWS and WP:RECENTISM, I think it prudent that we not mention every detail about Buswell's life (especially without a source), as it happens. At least wait until the legal process is finished. Mitch Ames (talk) 14:13, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Plagiarism
While it's not been before a court, the accusations (and accompanying evidence) of plagiarism are, in my opinion, very important as they bring his integrity and honesty into question. Agree with the 'tread carefully' comment above, but the evidence and commentary from reliable sources is very compelling. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.70.179.13 (talk) 11:20, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

Copyright violation
, I removed content from the Controversies section that was a copyright violation from this source. It was a copy-paste from two sentences from that article.

If you'd like to paraphrase the content, here's a template that is also helpful for formatting the citation information:

Thank you, I do appreciate the assistance. As you can see i am not a professional editor but can add some local insight and knowledge of Western Australia. Cookshat (talk) 07:27, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

, sorry to bother you a second time today, but do we need to remove the line from the revision history where the copyrighted content was added?

Thanks!–CaroleHenson (talk) 23:59, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
