Talk:National Priorities Project

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Why does this page have this warning banner?

"The tone or style of this article or section may not be appropriate for Wikipedia."

What is the "tone"?

The only thing I can hypothesize is that this organization is "offensive" to someone because of its political leanings. The article is quite factual, and I think properly represents the organization.

I first learned of them today (which is why I checked with Wikipedia), and was turned off by this "banner," but read on. After doing so I stongly question why the banner was placed there, leading me to click on the "talk page" only to discover no one wrote anything to justify the banner.

I am admittedly a neophite to contributing to Wikipedia; however, if someone is going to place a discrediting banner such as this, a LITTLE explanation should be required don't you think?

[edit] Article takes perspective of the subject

I am not the originator of the warning banner, but I agree with it. Here is an example:

Since the start of the Iraq War, NPP has been the single source for showing the cost of the war for each state and 400 cities, towns and counties. Our Cost of War publications have been used extensively by virtually every major peace organization, hundreds of media outlets and tens of thousands of interested citizens.
