Capo's note 5-21-07: Guess I should have taken less than a year to respond. I am the photographer and copyright holder for the photo that was removed for lack of timely documentation.
John Birch Society
editOK, I am not going to get into a debate with you about anything, and certainly not about the role I think the Birch society has played in American political life. The only comment I made, and I stand by it, is that if we are striving here for neutral and verifiable sources to back up the contentions made in our articles, then we ought to be at least a bit wary of using a John Birch Society quote that complains about another group having an agenda. In my view, Wikipedia ought to stay away from partisan sources and try to go with more mainstream sources. Tvoz |talk 02:16, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Tvoz, If you are comfortable deriving your POV based on what you are feed by "agenda-free" mainstream sources then I would agree a debate is not merited. Your position seems counter to the concept of Wikipedia however. If Wikipedia is just a rehash of material put out by "approved" mainstream media, what is the point?
How long do you think Walter Duranty, Dan Rather and Judith Miller would have lasted on WP, even (or especially) if they had hidden behind pseudonyms? The truth is more important than the source.-- Jim Capo
