Regarding your edits to Bill White (activist), please be aware that our articles, whether they are about the good or the bad, need to be written from a neutral point of view. Yes, White is probably anti-semitic, but it is generally inappropriate for us to add a strongly POV statement like that without attributing it to a 3rd party. Also, can you please refrain from adding line breaks to the document? It messes up the "difference" system that allows us to see what has been changed between revisions. And no, I'm not Bill White.
