• Talk:Sanjay Gupta Is it a problem under WP:NPOV#Undue weight and WP:NPOV that the majority of the article consists of Michale Moore's attack on Gupta with no recounting of Gupta's self-defense? Is it appropriate for an anonymous editor to remove the NPOV tag because he disagrees with the multiple editors who find a NPOV violation? 13:44, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Sicko (film) - Does WP:NOT#PLOT apply to non-fiction films? Is a 15K recounting of the plot, including extensive quotes from dialogue and the closing credits, appropriate for Misplaced Pages? 11:19, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Allegations_of_state_terrorism_by_the_United_States#Request_for_Comment:_title_change_to_Political_violence_by_the_United_States Title change to a neutral title which will drastically reduce edit warring. When the Zionist terrorism page when the name was changed to Zionist political violence the edit warring was reduced dramatically. 11:16, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Flying_checkpoint#Request_for_Comment There is a dispute about whether to include examples of use of flying checkpoints by Israel, the U.S., and Lebanese militias or to rely only on a general overview of checkpoints.03:33, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Sicko_(film)#NPOV_tag WP:LEAD requires mention of significant controversies in the lead paragraphs; WP:NPOV requires fair presentation of significant points of view. Does it violate WP:NPOV when there is no mention of right-wing criticism of the movie in the article at all? Should the NPOV tag be removed when there is a significant debate about the neutrality and factual accuracy of the article on the talk page? 19:22, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

• Talk:Israel#POV in lead Does the lead of this article sattisfy WP:NPOV? 19:09, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

• Tony Blair: Should the article include a succession box for the Order of Precedence? 22:24, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
• National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive - Two questions. Question #1: is this article a stub? User:TDC seems to think so in this edit. Question #2: should the link to the comprehensive analytical article by Michel Chossudovsky, which was added earlier today, have been removed? Diff here. As seen in the article's edit history, User:TDC was determined to "prove" that only one political commentator had commented on the Directive, but when it was shown that four commentators had published on the subject, s/he chose to remove the other links. Many thanks for input. 22:22, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

• Islamophobia: A long-standing dispute over whether a paper by Jehanzeb Hasan, a research assistant at California State University, can be used as a source. Hasan's paper provides a rejoinder to criticism of Islamophobia (i.e. he is arguing that Islamophobia does exist). His paper is used as the basis for part of this section, which some editors have been removing for months because they say he is not a reliable source, because he is not a notable source. Other editors argue that he needs only to be a reliable source, not a notable one. Comments please to Talk:Islamophobia#RfC_on_Hasan_paper. 19:33, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

• Impeach George W. Bush? This discussion has been in the (nonexistent?) Mediation Cabal for a few weeks, and it's turned into a soapbox. I'd hate to think that an AFD should be started, because it's a good concept for an article, but it is almost impossible for it to adhere to NPOV. Help with the discussion please! 22:21, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
• Sabeel. Does the lead violate WP:UNDUE by overemphasizing accusations of antisemitism? Please see discussion here. Outside comments needed.--16:59, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Ownership problems to boot. You can help. 00:24, 10 May 2007 (UTC) (See discussion at Talk:Michelle Malkin#This article is a travesty 02:52, 10 May 2007 (UTC))

• Deir Yassin Massacre. Talk:Deir_Yassin_massacre#Ongoing_debate A 1998 survey of English language history books found that only 8 of 170 "raise serious doubts" that this massacre took place. A search of Google scholar finds that 50 use the term "Deir Yassin massacre" and none use "Battle of Deir Yassin". Google books finds the proportion is 106 to 2. Two editors nevertheless argue, based mainly on the opinion of one leading scholar, that the "battle" interpretation should get equal weight in the intro and in the article itself, while one argues the page name should be changed to "Battle of Deir Yassin". Please comment. 02:47, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
