Religious big bang article

Um, that's a University website edited by Edward L. Wright - maybe you want to reconsider your tag? Dougweller (talk) 10:43, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

It was supposed to say "verify source". Instead, it came out as "verify credibility", which displays "unreliable source". The statement tagged is, "Some accept the scientific evidence at face value, while others seek to reconcile the Big Bang with their religious tenets, and others completely reject or ignore the evidence for the Big Bang theory." This statement is ambiguous (some, others) and does not accurately represent the context (false equivalence) and specific examples cited by the source; it is more of an unattributed interpretation of the section about science and creationism. When we are dealing with controversial articles, it's best to use explicit claims made by published sources, not interpretations of web pages. I'm sure Wright's website is accurate, but that does not mean it was used appropriately in this article. Viriditas (talk) 12:34, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
