Intro on Abortion
editIngralamb, hi.
The introduction of that article has quite recently been the subject of thorough debate, and the current version is the result of hard-won consensus among several editors. If you have suggestions about how the intro should be worded, please address them on the article talk page, where you might find your arguments have already been made and answered many times over, from a myriad of perspectives. Please see Talk:Abortion/First paragraph for the most recent few rounds. -GTBacchus(talk) 16:14, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- Hey, you're right that "death" is a biased term in the first sentence, but an edit war will not help your cause. I'm not sure that anything will, as the article is effectively owned by Christians who are closed-minded and non-Christians who are too quick to compromise. Alienus 16:20, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
