[WikiEN-l] Attack blogs in WP:LIVING articles

Guy Chapman asks The Cunctator:

I would answer this question as follows: Only if the blog has been 
referred to by mainstream publication, and is mentioned in the text.

The situation would be different where (as in the case of people like
Noam Chomsky) there exists a separate article devoted to criticism.
WP:BLP still applies to such an article, but more extensive linking
would be appropriate. In such a case I would judge the value of the
link by the contents of the blog.
