[edit] PoV check at Scientific opinion on climate change

An experienced editor uninvolved in the climate change wars is requested to run the POV check at Scientific opinion on climate change, state their opinion, and promptly walk away. Thanks. Hipocrite (talk) 18:08, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Please note the extensive discussion on the talk page there related to the underlying issue. --GoRight (talk) 18:17, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Sublime and the attempted reformation

There has been a dispute about the band Sublime. In 2009 two living members tried to reform the band with a new lead singer/guitarist (Rome Ramirez) and use the Sublime name. The family of deceased lead singer/guitarist Bradley Nowell sued and a judge forbade the group from using that name. "The court agreed that Bud and Eric and the new lead singer didn't have the right to go out and call themselves Sublime..." It seems to me, and many editors, that any attempt to edit the article saying that Rome Ramirez was a member of Sublime and that Sublime reformed in 2009 is incorrect. There has been a slow "edit skirmish" between posters adding Rome Ramirez, removing Rome Ramirez, etc., but users (particularly one named User:Alex 101) keep adding the name. I think consensus on the talk page is that Rome Ramirez and the attempted reunion isn't legit (or, at best, in legal limbo). I'm looking for outside opinion.

[edit] Norman Chaney and adopt-a-user

It looks like two very new editors are interested in Norman Chaney. They need help sorting through the issues of WP:V, WP:RS, and very lightweight WP:DR. Is anyone interested in historic American actors, or just feels like getting a gold star to help them out? tedder (talk) 08:49, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Classism entry subjectivism and large, strip-back revision

The article's been quite re-tooled in a manner that doesn't express clarification on the nature of classism and classism that doesn't fall on minority groups or low-wealth bodies. I feel the article needs to be reviewed for its bias angle and poor revisions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.85.64.114 (talk) 17:20, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
