| I'm not defending West Point or policing relevant content. I could similarly place well referenced information about the varieties of snack food most consumed on campus in 1955, broken down by percentage, and it too would be way out of place. The National Enquirer and Ken Starr might be interested and feel that it appropriate to report what percentage of people at an institution had anal sex in a certain year. Within the context of an article about a 200 year institution which has had dozens of scandals which dwarf your reference, your information is simply out of place. | I'm not defending West Point or policing relevant content.

Strawberries
I wonder if you are planning to expand the various Fragaria spp. articles? If not, then since each article is short and contains much the same information as the others, maybe they could be merged into a section of the Strawberry article? Gdr 05:10:36, 2005-08-19 (UTC)
Yes, I am planning to expand the articles. If you'll notice, a few have already been expanded, and I deleted links to 5 which I have decided not to do. I have also just added more infor to the tanonomy section of the main Strawberry articleDr U 06:11, 19 August 2005 (UTC)
Footnotes
The easternmost/westernmost points of the U.S. throughout the world are disputed. What is most eastern or western depends on one's point of view about what east and west really mean.
By cartographical convention, the Prime Meridian running through Greenwich, England is the least eastern and least western place in the world. It is defined as 0 degrees longitude. The 180th Meridian, on the opposite side of the globe represents the absolute limit of how far east or west one can travel, from a cartographical perspective. Anything exactly on the 180th meridian is neither east nor west; but take one step to either side and you are at 179+ degrees east or 179+ degrees west, the highest achievable numbers. By this mode of reconing, the most eastern and western spots in the US are both in the Aluetian Islands, Alaska.
If one takes the view that the easternmost place is where the day first begins, and the westernmost is where the day last ends, then the International Date Line is the defining limit for what is most eastern or western. In a new year, the earliest US sunrise takes place on Wake Island. Just a few minutes ealier, the sun also rose over Attu Island, Alaska but for December 31.
If you define what is most eastern and most western by which direction you must travel to reach a point over the shortest distance
Survey of sexual harassment and assault at West Point
It is inappropriate to remove well referenced information from an article. While the information could be organized differently it is significant information which belongs in the article. After all the information comes from reports of the Department of Defense. Fred Bauder 03:20, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
West Point
I'm not defending West Point or policing relevant content. I could similarly place well referenced information about the varieties of snack food most consumed on campus in 1955, broken down by percentage, and it too would be way out of place. The National Enquirer and Ken Starr might be interested and feel that it appropriate to report what percentage of people at an institution had anal sex in a certain year.

- There was no directive by Congress to the Department of defense to survey snack food nor would a report on snack food find prominent coverage in the media. See and the Department of Defense report
