Recent improper removal of content - Political background
An IP user made an edit that deleted the content within the Political background section in a very improper manner:
- removal of cited content
- removal of an entire section without discussing it here
- and typing in two words under the section heading made it look like vandalism
- there was no identification of what was problematic, which would be much better - with citation needed tags, or Template:Tl that challenge the veracity of the information.
But, I looked at the comment in their edit summary "this information was all false. As a proffesional in this field I feel that this MISINFORMATION should NOT be posted publicly on a website where kids and adults alike trust to give accurate info."
And have a couple of comments:
- There was a discussion about different bribes that judges would receive... which was not discussed at all in the cited source. I revised the sentence to discuss what was on that page: personal liberty laws. I am guessing someone changed the wording and kept the original citation - because personal liberty laws are very appropriate in that paragraph.
- The entire first paragraph is not cited, and I am not sure about the statistics - that's the only thing that jumps out at me. I will look for sources.
In an attempt to make the article the best that it can be, does anyone see anything that I may be missing?–CaroleHenson (talk) 20:52, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
- I am File:Yes check.svg Done now with this version. I am not finding anything else to be questionable, but if I missed something, please say so.–CaroleHenson (talk) 23:19, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
