Hey folks,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominique_Strauss-Kahn_sexual_assault_case
This article is a bit of a disaster, and I think could really use some attention, particularly from experienced Wikipedians and/or people experienced with coverage of sexual assault.
I've made a couple of edits aiming to clean it up a little, but it really needs more work -- particularly, because it covers a high-profile alleged crime involving two living people, and they both deserve to be treated with respect and restraint. Looks like there aren't very many experienced editors working on it, which is a little anxiety-provoking. So if anybody's got time to help, that would be great :-)
Thanks, Sue

I had a go at it, even though I am not as experienced an editor as would be ideal. Whiteghost.ink

Dear Sue, A good source for improving this article is to compare it with the article in the French WP. More quotes, more perspectives and a label on presumption of inocence. best regards,Patricia --- On Sat, 5/28/11, Sue Gardner sgardner@wikimedia.org wrote:
