Snyder on Hoppe
You had added the Snyder comment on the Hoppe/UNLV controversy. How about adding some Hoppe talk page thoughts on expanding Snyder's quotation? – S. Rich (talk) 05:54, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- If someone challenges it. But obviously leaving out half of what he says and then criticizing it is problematic under WP:BLP. CarolMooreDC - talkie talkie🗽 05:57, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- You put it in, I added another sentence, SPECIFICO reverted (and I re-reverted -- shame on me). I feel the second sentence is pertinent because it is in context and explains further why academic freedom applied in that particular case. (The discussion with SPECIFICO is fairly focused.) – S. Rich (talk) 06:21, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- I can't find the diff in question so not sure what you are talking about. The second half of the Snyder comment on academic freedom that I removed since first part really is most relevant? CarolMooreDC - talkie talkie🗽 17:30, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

Canvassing template
"There have been attempts to recruit editors of specific viewpoints to this article." Just who are the specific editors? SPECIFICO posted all over the place and I have revised those postings. He complained (incorrectly) about your "canvassing" and I defended you in that matter. (As I recall I said just because people are looking at particular project pages does not mean they have specific viewpoints.) The only specific editor that SPECIFICO notified was FurrySings. (And that was proper because Furry started the whole mess.) The canvassing issue is already mentioned on the RfC. It does not need more attention as it will only distract from the RfC topic. And should there be a discussion about posting the lousy canvassing template? JFC! The talk page has got too much garbage already. Please take down the template. (Or let me do it.) – S. Rich (talk) 15:09, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- See my relevant message just left on article talk page. Please discuss issue there. And read WP:Canvass. CarolMooreDC - talkie talkie🗽 15:13, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
- Your notice on the Libertarian project had the same sort of improper editorial comment that SPECIFICO had posted. I changed every one of those notices and I changed yours too. You are unduly complicating things. Adding extraneous (and incorrect) material to the RfC discussion page just complicates matters. Involved editors get to make jabs at you (and me) and non-involved editors roll their eyes.
