John Avlon marketing his book.

Hi,

So I noticed a sentence in the "radical center" wiki with no citation.

The definitive history of "Centrism" in America, and probably the best-selling radical centrist book to date^{[citation needed]}, is John Avlon's Independent Nation (2004, pbk. 2005).

I was unaware that sales figures were kept for "radical centrist" publications, so I did some searching for a top 10 list of radical centrists books by various years (2009, 2008, 2007 etc..). Unfortunately, I was unable to find such a list.

So, I removed the sentence. Then I went to John Avlon's wiki to remove the following sentence, which cites as its source the sentence in the "radical center" wiki that has no citation!

Independent Nation has been called, "the definitive history of 'Centrism' in America, and probably the best-selling radical centrist book to date."

Unfortunately, I'm a newbie so I can't change the page. I imagine there were some "angry" edits made in the past few months which is why the page is protected. Nevertheless, the above sentence strikes me as pure unsupported marketing which shouldn't have a place on a factual bio page.

Cheers!

Are you still an admin?

If I recall during the EB mediation years back you were but are no longer right? The results section is reserved for administrators as far as I know. Wikifan^{Be nice} 05:37, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

I did resign the tools some time ago, however my opinion stands. Your "I didn't know that" routine is particularly unconvincing. Kevin (talk) 06:09, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Your opinion is in the wrong section if you aren't an admin. Wikifan^{Be nice} 06:11, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

If you think your argument is improved by complaining about the location of a comment, then have at it. Kevin (talk) 06:14, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

I have been working to revise this article so that it will better conform to Wikipedia's standards, and was wondering what more I need to do in order to remove the flag.

I have re-linked several references and deleted links that have suffered from rot.

Though I understand that there are elements of the article that do "sound like an advertisement," I'm unsure if it needs to be completely re-written or just pared down and simplified. AJamesPrice (talk) 17:44, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
