[edit] Review 1

Revision 691669 of this article has been reviewed by TUFKAAP (talk · contribs) and has failed its review at 02:21, 13 September 2008 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Failed: I'd be totally ok with this article if I can find just one more source confirming the motion to remove since the Post article has been used in the prior article and really only just gives a lead up to what caused this. So just find one more source and it's good. NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Once again, good with it aside from sources. TUFKAAP (talk) 02:21, 13 September 2008 (UTC) The article should be switched from {{Review}} to {{tasks|src|re-review}}, if it has not already been done, and these issues should be addressed. It is recommended that the appropriate templates be added to the article itself, if applicable. This talk page should be updated with subsequent reviews.

PS: The title is copyvio in my book at least. It's a near word-for-word copy of the source and the only one LP has been replaced with "Libertarian U.S.". —Calebrw (talk) 02:27, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Well, it's changed now, I did notice consider it... but that's what development's for.

[edit] Source/title fixed

I've renamed the article and found a new source. I've put this back under 'Review'. --WNewsReporter (talk) 02:45, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

New source added regarding the motion. --WNewsReporter (talk) 03:14, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Would it be possible to you to incorporate part of the motion into the article? That's what seems to be missing, if you add that, I would pass the article for peer review. PS: I will add a related news headers. —Calebrw (talk) 03:18, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Motion added. --WNewsReporter (talk) 03:31, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] REMOVAL MOTION

I think it really breaks up the article when it's in the middle. Maybe add it on the bottom after the full text of the article? Or maybe have a link to a separate page? --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 03:40, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Moved. —Calebrw (talk) 03:44, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. --PatrickFlaherty (talk) 03:45, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Sure —Calebrw (talk) 03:46, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Review 2

Revision 691744 of this article has been reviewed by Calebrw (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 03:41, 13 September 2008 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Great additions since the last review. I like the fact that the whole motion is posted. The mostion could be placed at the end, but that's the only thing I could think to change. The article may be switched from {{Review}} to {{Publish}}, if it has not already been done.

Thanks for the review and help. --WNewsReporter (talk) 03:48, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Heads up

This, in response to an e-mail Phillies says he received from LP spokesman Andrew Davis saying there is “no truth” to the claims made in a WikiNews article about the possibility of Barr’s removal.

Everything in that article was sourced. I'm pretty sure that Davis was lying to save face. --WNewsReporter (talk) 22:36, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
