[edit] What's going on?

The article is heavily skewed in its negativity and criticisms towards covert incest. The person who has rewritten the page and who has done the latest edits has been openly hostile towards the subject matter and has not taken an even handed approach. He has so far refused to compromise. He believes all sources that are critical are mainstream and of sound reasoning, while anything that is pro-covert incest is not a legitimate source. So far, we've had two third opinions, but this has not resulted in any consensus between the parties and therefore has been of little use.

[edit] What would you like to change about that?

I would like the topic to be handled evenhandedly and for the voices of all to be incorporated, instead of just one person. As it is right now, the article is "owned" by one person and he has so far refused to budge.

[edit] Discussion

Consensus still hasn't been reached on whether to include an external link to CovertIncest.org. After this has been resolved, you may close this issue. Forest Path (talk) 18:00, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
