Talk:Benj. Franklin Savings and Loan

Comments

Certainly there were ideas used from the alleged infringed page, but those ideas have been largely restated for this use and context.

So kindly hold on.

No, it was blatant copy and paste. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 09:00, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Much less than 1/4. I believe all sentences have now been edited. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scottrainey (talk • contribs) 09:09, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I found another note from you, which changes my earlier impressions. I thank you for your patience with my grumpiness. I will scan the page again in the morning to see if I missed any remaining remnants of the copy/paste. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scottrainey (talk • contribs) 09:29, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Not that it matters, but I had no deposits or stocks or employment with the topic thrift. I'm simply outraged by the government behavior in that case. I do have accounts at WaMu a thrift recently in the news. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scottrainey (talk • contribs) 09:21, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. Under the circumstances, I'd be outraged, too. Of course, I am frequently outraged at the "gubmint." There are still some POV issues with this. I will work on those as time allows over the next few days. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 15:56, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I've hit several sections with edits to remove suggestions of bias. rosebud (talk) 09:04, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Several edits later, I think it's time to pull some of the flags. Will someone more intimately familiar with their use do that please?rosebud (talk) 04:58, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

I've removed a few of the tags, but this still needs other work. Most important are using footnotes (see WP:CITE) to better source the article. Aboutmovies (talk) 06:03, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Please note this article seems rather slanted towards "bad government, bad government, go lay down" when we must abide by WP:NPOV. Part of the problem is the repeatative nature of the article towards the end (i.e. seeds of the seizure onward), and there should not be a summary section, this isn't an essay.
