[edit] purpose?

This category is pretty vague. Almost any topic is controversial to someone. Even teddy bears. What purpose is it serving, exactly?

I'm unclear whether we it is marking articles that cover real-world controversial topics, or articles that have become controversies in Wikipedia itself (e.g. disputed, POV, etc.). ⇔ ChristTrekker 16:32, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Archives in categories

Would someone remove all the archives in this category and leave only the current talk page? Skinnyweed 09:34, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] subcategorization suggestion

This category is huge! I think it would be smart to subcategorize. ⇔ ChristTrekker 16:32, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Links to Debatepedia

There have been some links to Debatepedia as a non-NPOV wiki site for controversial issues. Is this relevant to this category, and are these links appropriate? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.199.82.172 (talk) 01:54, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Those links fail our guidelines. They are not reliable sources and they do not meet our external links guidelines. -- SiobhanHansa 02:30, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
