Indeed, BLP issues are more often about balance than anything else. It is often that case that the worst bios of living people involve a skeleton bio with a huge puke of negative information (properly sourced) in the middle, so that the article as a whole is completely biased. Because of certain cultural norms against ever ever ever removing any precious little tidbit of information, despite it boring the reader to tears and being a form of attack and bias, it can be hard for people to combat it. Remember, NPOV is non-negotiable. Wikipedia is not a data dump. Quality requires editorial judgment and good sense. --Jimbo _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l(a)Wikipedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
