Issues

[edit]

Regarding the removal of some, I think this meets the exception. The Oregonian, Just Out, the Portland Tribune, and even the rather irrelevant to politics paper Portland Business Journal is as well. Or would you prefer overkill and mentions of each? Aboutmovies (talk) 09:15, 22 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Also the Portland Police Union. But not Leonard as the article was changed to. Aboutmovies (talk) 09:17, 22 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
And note the wat it had been changed before was also inaccurate, no city officials have called for his resignation at this time. Aboutmovies (talk) 09:20, 22 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Another accuracy problem

[edit]

Sorry, but I just noticed this: Adams has stated that the relationship was never one of mentorship, that was part of the lie. So the second-to-last sentence is false. I will seek out a citation for that if necessary…not sure what the protocol is for correcting an existing story? -Peteforsyth (talk) 06:13, 2 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

If he stated after this article's date, then it is not available for inclusion. Our articles strive to be what was known at the time, thus a snap-shot in time if you will. But a source would definitely be needed. Cheers, --SVTCobra 23:49, 22 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
Okay, that makes sense, thanks for explaining. I don't remember when that detail came out, or know a source. But more than that, I'm not even sure which sentence I was originally objecting to -- on a fresh read, it all looks pretty accurate to me now. -Peteforsyth (talk) 16:11, 23 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
