[edit] Barack Obama

Do baseless allegations and suppositions of bloggers merit inclusion in Wikipedia? If so, I need to post to legitimize my goofiest theories. Austinmayor (talk) 02:41, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Are you the So-Called Austin Mayor on Eric Zorn's blog? (just curious) I'll accept that "Frank" is Frank Marshall Davis. I don't think we should leave it at that, but I don't want a separate article similar to Bill Ayers election controversy. The problem with these things is that one part is true, and if we don't address the second part it might be assumed both parts are true. I figured one sentence would do the job.

Yes, yes I am. Thank you for asking. Austinmayor (talk) 15:42, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Problem solved. :-) Thanks to an anonymous contributor (from Minnesota?), we now know this started with Gerald Horne. Flatterworld (talk) 19:09, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Gamaliel refuses to discuss his/her continual reverts on the Talk page, so this is really just to document the current situation. It's unfortunate that Wikipedia attracts people unwilling to discuss differences, but that's life. There seems to be a lot of this 'lack of good faith' editing going on in articles connected in any way to the presidential election, and I expect it will continue to go downhill until November.

[edit] Infobox

I added the infobox, but am unsure about the contents of various entries. Please check and change as necessary. I just thought he rated an infobox, so I started it. :-) Flatterworld (talk) 03:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
