This "article" is practically a puff piece for Senator Sampson, with everything in it written positively about him. 100.0.97.27 (talk) 21:13, 2 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Yea, no kidding. I just read a news article from the BBC where he was the sole dissenting voice for exonerating supposed witches that were killed in the mid to late 1600s. I wanted to learn more about him, and instead I come across his Wikipedia entry that reads like a book sleeve upselling a struggling author. 129.222.188.20 (talk) 15:42, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
It is written more as a political Press release than as an impartial scholarly factual article. My bet is that it that Sampson wrote it himself. It needs to be deleted. 98.26.118.96 (talk) 18:20, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
It is somewhat of unspoken knowledge that Senator Sampson essentially moderates his own page. He was recently featured on John Oliver for a) the witch vote and b) advocating for private interests in hospice care. I have included a mention and link to that on this page. Considering the video has just about a million views less than 24 hours after it was posted on John Oliver's YT channel, it would be odd if it were to be nixed from his page. I will also try to find that BBC source. PoliEditor1492 (talk) 02:43, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
