I think the Wikipedia article for Melanie Phillips is far from neutral and is plagued with personal opinions rather than facts. It also focuses on the negative rather than having a balance of facts about her. I have put a marker on the page for that reason as I believe it goes against the main Wikipdedia principle of being factual rather than opinionated.

can you highlight particular areas of bias or NPOV? It seems relatively even handed to me. Magic Pickle 23:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Id agree with the above sentiment, any specific areas of concern should be highlighted, putting the POV label on an article in 'general terms' isn't the way it should be used. The article seems fine to me. I've removed the tag, i don't mind anyone objecting, as long as a proper discussion or reasoning is attempted.

New Society (magazine)

I don't want to abuse my admin powers by editing a protected page, so when the time comes that it might be unprotected, New Society should probably be changed to New Society (magazine), or some such, even though there doesn't seem to be such an article yet. --John Owens (talk) 08:18, 2005 Mar 16 (UTC)

If you do that, a brief piece on the magazine would be good. The entry for left wing magazine New Stateman says of that magazine: "The Statesman acquired the weekly New Society in 1988 and merged with it, becoming New Statesman and Society for the next eight years."
There is a tiny bit more at that New Statesman website. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 16:02, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Unprotecting

This has been protected against vandalism for about a week now. I'm unprotecting to give editors (like the above) a chance. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 15:53, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
