NPOV issues
TFD, I saw your posting to the Talk:Nazi gun control theory. You wrote: ''..."Neutrality requires that each article or other page in the mainspace fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by reliable sources, in proportion to the prominence of each viewpoint in the published, reliable sources." I paraphrased it as one must "establish the weight of the opinions expressed in secondary sources." You provided a link to it above.'' I also saw your response to my posting at Neutral point of view/Noticeboard‎. Thanks for participating there. However the point you made was pretty much the same point I was raising there, although one deals more with facts than opinions. However WP:NPOV says that neutrality also must be maintained in article structure. It seems to me that if reliable secondary sources devote a lot of space to something, then we should cover it at least a little bit. Am I wrong? Felsic2 (talk) 20:42, 14 August 2016 (UTC)


 * I must have misunderstood your the original post. Secondary sources about a crime routinely mention the type of weapon used.  That does not establish weight for an article about the weapon.  Similary if sources say it occurred in the U.S., that does not establish weight for inclusion in the article about the U.S.  However, if sources about the weapon routinely mention crimes used in their commission, then it meets due weight for inclusion.

 * Thanks. Yes, in this case there are 14 secondary sources about the weapon and the crime. That's more than mention anything else about the gun. As for what happens "routinely" in other gun articles, well, I'm not sure how that's a factor. Felsic2 (talk) 21:19, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

Clinton
Hi TFD. Srich seems to have left a stray hat template on the page when he reinsinuated the smear about Sec'y Clinton. This had the effect of hiding your recent post there. SPECIFICO talk  19:33, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
