Multiple issues

Latest comment: 7 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

This article has multiple problems related to WP:POV and WP:AVOID. In fact some of these were pointed out on the talk page of the author who seems to have been responsible for most of it but these still have not been dealt with. Unless someone can clean this up by rewording/attributing statements to sources/providing citations I will remove the problematic content.

Some bits that stand out:

"..tells the story of the final awful months of the 26-year-long Sri Lankan civil war: This sometimes harrowing story is told by the people who lived through the war - and through some of the most dramatic and disturbing video evidence ever seen. This footage - direct evidence of war crimes, summary execution, torture and sexual violence - was recorded by both the victims and perpetrators on mobile phones and small cameras during the final 138 days of hell..."

"No Fire Zone has been described as something of an international phenomenon. Not just an agenda setting investigation, but a cinematic tour de force – a stunning and disturbing film in its own right."

"It has been widely praised by personalities as disparate as.."

"Despite the painstaking checking.."

"However, as more and more evidence continues to emerge this position becomes ever more untenable."

"The organisers of the festival bravely ignored the ban.."

"..written by a mysterious group called "Engage Sri Lanka" but is widely believed to be a product of the Sri Lankan government and is widely believed.." PerditionsEnd (talk) 22:29, 27 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

I've posted several specific examples above of POV language and puffery that still exists in the article despite the previous edits. Until these are fixed I see no reason to remove the tags, so I'm restoring them. PerditionsEnd (talk) 10:54, 28 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
