Notability

[edit]

What, if anything, makes this person sufficiently notable for a BLP? — Writegeist (talk) 23:28, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Is he wearing, possibly, THE BIGGEST WIG EVER on Glenn Beck 12th April 2011 ??!! If he is and is doing it for Medical reasons - OK fair enough but otherwise it is notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.41.170.194 (talk) 18:30, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

He is notable for being the editor of Reason magazine and an activist for "libertarianism". You know, what younger conservatives have re-branded themselves as, before they make the transition towards full blown conservative Republicanism. --174.44.124.123 (talk) 17:19, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This article reads like a press release written by his publicist. Ron Thompson (talk) 00:14, 8 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's mostly okay, but the giant quote fluffing him up was a bit much, so I pulled it. —Torchiest talkedits 02:21, 8 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There is an RfC on the question of using "Religion: None" vs. "Religion: None (atheist)" in the infobox on this and other similar pages.

The RfC is at Template talk:Infobox person#RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.

Please help us determine consensus on this issue. --Guy Macon (talk) 15:17, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question regarding qualifiers next to "journalist"

[edit]

Just wondering if there is a policy on this. Other journalists don't have qualifiers next to their "journalist" descriptor. Is this just meant as a put-down, and would that not be editorialising? Seems like all journalists should be qualifier free, or have it as "and" advocacy of whatever. --Tallard (talk) 05:10, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedians in general are terrible for doing this. It often comes across as undue labeling and framing, or as partisan "othering" and axe-grinding. --Animalparty! (talk) 03:04, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
