How do you make a police assistance program NPOV? As its a voluntary program its up to the individual to participate, in it? --Tomtom 19:25, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I attempted to clean up the article and npov it. --Numerousfalx 20:15, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Seems pretty NPOV to me, I searched and found nothing about abuses of the Crimestoppers program--Numerousfalx 29 June 2005 15:53 (UTC)

There's no article about related student crime stopper programs within schools. The way they're set up from what I know, they are abused. There have been cases of students setting up other students and reporting them in order to get rewards... I'm going to do a research project on it, so I'll see what I can find about it. If anyone else wants to look into this it would be a good idea. -- Guest 22 Feb 2007 23:02 (EST)

The entry relating to "Committees for the Defense of the Revolution (Cuba)" seems a bit off-topic, as the article linked to is clearly a government initiative to spy on residents for potentially opressive reasons, nothing like "Crimestoppers".LyallDNZ 12:52, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Removed section about Orwell's term "crimestop", as that word as used in Nineteen Eighty-Four clearly isn't even vaguely related to what Crimestoppers does. I hope this wasn't stealth POV pushing. Erifnam (talk) 05:25, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
