Assessment comments

Moved from Archdiocese of Dubuque to Roman Catholic Archediocese of Dubuque for (1) uniformity with other Roman Catholic diocesan articles on Wikipedia and (2) clarity based on Wikipedia namespace standards for articles and possible articles with similar names. --Gerald Farinas 22:23, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I have made some comments in the talk section of the article on _Dubuque, Iowa_ suggesting a link to this page, among other things. You get a disambiguation page if you search on _Dubuque_, and THIS page should probably link to this disambiguation page. See my further remarks at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Dubuque%2C_Iowa&action=edit --FourthAve 7 July 2005 20:49 (UTC)
[edit] Help needed on an unrelated article
I tried to construct a article on public schools similar to "Roman Catholic sex abuse cases." It is under severe attack by the deniers. The article is Sex abuse cases in American public schools (Iowa).
Disclosure about my pov: I have nothing against teachers. I think most of them are doing a great job under the burdens society has levied on them. I have never been molested!
I was careful to only include cases which could be verified and were of a serious nature. I deliberately omitted porno at school, drug pushing at school, even violence. I also omitted "outside" misconduct by teachers. That is, if they met the student outside the school, it was a crime (from my pov) that could have been perpetrated by any occupation. So I omitted it. Since newspaper articles only go back a few years online, without a fee there are very few documented cases.
The article is under extreme attack by the deny-ers. They assert a) the abuse never happened, b) the abuse did happen but it wasn't important. I could use some help (an understatement!). Thanks. Student7 12:30, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Recent Events
I really think that some parts of the "recent events" section of this article need to be cut down in size. I am thinking in particular about the passion of the christ section talking about the cartoon. Is that really relevant enough to be included in an article about the archdiocese? If I wanted to read an encyclopedia article encompassing all the important aspects of the archdiocese, would people's reactions to a cartoon be one of the most important things to include? I invite the author to make their case. And also, to cite their information, as this section is currently not cited. Inquisitive89 (talk) 06:10, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
