Thank you for helping me write here. So, in brief what would help me and save a lot of time is what ? you don't want me to say that the senior Newsweek editor wrote a piece in Newsweek. Is this a personal feud you have with her ?
You don't want this particular information out ? What is this so particular about ? You don't involve in politics do you ? You don't choose sides right ? No agenda, right ? You're neutral, right ? I'll present this in the article: "Lisa Miller wrote an article called "Is Obama the Antichrist" ", please give me consensus here because McGeddon does not rule what's written here, he's never made the slightest entry until today. He's obviously here for some reason he alone knows. He's started this editing war so I'm going for consensus. I didn't start any war, he did. Thanks for voting here. How many votes for me entering that ? [[User:Geiremann|Geiremann]] ([[User talk:Geiremann|talk]]) 17:48, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Obama article

I want to make an entry about Lisa Miller to this article giving the name of an article she wrote. She deserves better information on her website. Kindly give consensus. Please do not involve in an editing war, this is not useful. I made my entries peacefully. I don't think any agressiveness is good. Peace. Thank you.

The article shouldn't single out an obscure news piece Miller wrote once, purely because you are interested in the conspiracy theory it describes. We already link to an index of her writing, and two cover stories - per WP:ELPOINTS ("try to avoid separate links to multiple pages in the same website"), we don't need individual article links when we have an index. (We could also lose the two "cover stories" - if they're important, it'd be more useful to the reader if we wrote about their significance in the article.) --McGeddon (talk) 17:37, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Singling out one column from the hundreds she's written is giving one undue weight. It's already linked on the page in her archive of columns, unless it's notable by outside reliable sources, there's no cause to include it specifically. Dayewalker (talk) 17:39, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for helping me write here. So, in brief what would help me and save a lot of time is what ? you don't want me to say that the senior Newsweek editor wrote a piece in Newsweek. Is this a personal feud you have with her ? You don't want this particular information out ? What is this so particular about ? You don't involve in politics do you ? You don't choose sides right ? No agenda, right ? You're neutral, right ? I'll present this in the article: "Lisa Miller wrote an article called "Is Obama the Antichrist" ", please give me consensus here because McGeddon does not rule what's written here, he's never made the slightest entry until today. He's obviously here for some reason he alone knows. He's started this editing war so I'm going for consensus. I didn't start any war, he did. Thanks for voting here.
