2003 invasion of Iraq
No I do not think that you have adhered to NPOV policy. Those statements are backed only by citation to a policy group study, not really wp:RS in my opinion. Further placing those statements in the lead of the article lends undue weight to the criticisms, which have their own section in that article anyway. If you want to add something to the criticisms section about Bush's lies, that would be different, and I wouldnt have a problem with it if you write it in a neutral way, or if you want to update the lead with some note about the overall controversy, not just Bush's lies, that would also be ok. However, adding a note about Bush's lies only in the lead both lends undue weight to that particular criticism and diminishes the others. See also wp:LEADBonewah (talk) 17:47, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
- it was not in the lead but in 3rd section (chapter 1.1) of the article[1] when you scroll 4 pages down, so i don't know what you are talking about. also, it's about U.S. administration's lies. 93.86.164.168 (talk) 18:12, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
- Your right, i just skimmed it and thought that it was in the lead, still, it needs to be in the criticism section, in my opinion, and reworded to be more neutral. When the title of your commentary is "this article is a joke" its hard to put forth that much effort into really checking it. That is why i deleted your comments as well, at a glance it would seem to violate wp:TPNO "Do not use the talk page as a forum or soapbox for discussing the topic." On further investigation, your comments arent totally useless, just poorly worded. Bonewah (talk) 18:30, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
- i don't see why you say those facts should be in criticism section. fact that The rationale for invading Iraq as a response to 9/11 has been widely questioned, as there was no cooperation between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda.[36] is there, and fact that administration was giving false statements is not that different, only more strongly worded. 93.86.164.168 (talk) 18:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I dont think much of that sentance either, it is not very neutral and is not entirely supported by the citation (the widely questioned part) and it runs counter to what the article says earlier (that the rationale was WMDs).
