Talk:Turkey strengthens air defence at Syrian border following shootdown

NPOV

I've only had time to do a quick once-over, and won't be able to do anything with this tonight (sadly), but it looks to have pro-Turkish bias problems. The bit about leading the efforts to remove al-Assad in particular seems... iffy. Also, a few days ago the Turks were claiming the aircraft was in international airspace. Maybe I've missed an update (in which case I apologise), but I'm not convinced this plane was in Turkish airspace if even the Turks aren't prepared to claim it was. In any event, the whole incident was disputed with Syria claiming it was a legitimate response to a misunerstanding.
I haven't much sympathy for the Syrians here, but that doesn't allow me to ignore their side of all this. Blood Red Sandman ^{(Talk) (Contribs)} 23:16, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

To me, the bit about Turkey being in the forefront of efforts etc. looks fundamentally non-neutral, in the sense of presenting as fact an assessment that should be attributed. Indeed, the following sentence attempts to defend the claim, which to my mind makes it especially clear the claim should be attributed per WN:NPOV. --Pi zero (talk) 23:22, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Note: Some edits have been made and hopefully they solve the problem. Blood Red Sandman ^{(Talk) (Contribs)} 14:34, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: I see Reuters is unashamedly describing Turkey as "at the forefront", unattributed. Part of the reason this sat so long awaiting review (sorry!) is that the Wall St Journal cannot be accessed by some reviewers. We think it blocks traffic from some parts of the globe unless they pay, but will allow traffic from other places e.g. Europe.
