There should be a section called "Contreversy". M. Rapaille admitted that is Curriculum Vitae contained lies about his past realisations. Quebec City suspended is contract with him (source: http://www.radio-canada.ca/regions/Quebec/2010/03/29/005-Quebec-rapaille-contrat.shtml, in french). - Visitor —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.200.153.109 (talk) 02:59, 30 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Someone erased all the page. Since it was referenced with sources I put it back the way it was, including the controversy section. Agree? 64.18.185.107 (talk) 21:01, 30 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Crucial negative information belongs in the lead

edit

The lead of the article presents basic information about Rapaille, sourced to his website. Even if it were sourced to reliable sources, the likelihood is the information would ultimately come from him. For example, this includes the field of his doctorate, and his client list.

The problem is, this information is directly challenged by two articles in the daily Le Soleil that question its accuracy. These articles do not just contradict his claims incidentally. They are the result of an investigation by the newspaper into the veracity of Rapaille's claims. Thus there are legitimate questions about the basic biographical elements in the lead.

Therefore, these claims need to be attributed to Rapaille, and the fact that there are questions about the accuracy of the information needs to be mentioned directly following the disputed claims made in the lead (including the field of his doctorate, his client list, etc.) Otherwise, we are leading the reader to believe that Wikipedia vouches for the information.

The problem is, on several occasions, this sourced information, as well as other negative information which could easily have been sourced, has been simply removed ([1] [2][3][4][5][6][7]), removed along with the sources on the grounds that it was already addressed in the "Controversy" section ([8]), or downplayed by moving it out of the lead to the "Controversy" section ([9][10][11]).

Some of these may be good-faith edits, but many clearly are not. In any event, if an editor wishes to move the negative information out of the lead, he is requested to discuss it here first. 82.124.231.13 (talk) 06:04, 15 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
