Seems that this reads like her website, and no where does it talk about what her degrees are in. ---130.108.140.43 (talk) 15:24, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

POV tag

I don't know why there is POV tag on this article as I can't seem to find any in the article. It's a very brief bio. Besides, there is no talk topic on this subject either, which the author who put the POV tag seemed to suggest. I will remove the POV tag. Showmebeef (talk) 22:38, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

POV of edit of 01:13, 12 February 2020‎ 2601:48:c500:dc77:e858:93db:6292:71b5 appears far from neutral

On 12 Feb 2020 a section was added by an anonymous user who appears to have made no other contributions to Wikipedia before or since.

The section is called "Posing as a Fake Foreign Policy Advisor"

The section seems entirely critical and derogatory, lacking a neutral or balanced point of view. It repeats verbatim some claims made in an investigative article in the Washington Examiner, without context or attempt to find out from the Andrew Yang campaign or other people involved the truth of the matter. The edit state "there is no evidence of such a claim" (that she was an advisor to Yang), but that is not enough to settle the matter. It usually requires more than this to accuse someone of lying on their resume. I read somewhere (don't recall the source) that she was an advisor and now I have read the Washington Examiner article that she wasn't but who is right? BTW "being an advisor" to a Presidential campaign can mean many things, it is not a well defined job like Secretary of State or National Security Advisor which can easily be checked. It is a volunteer role where you work with others in the campaign on policy papers and take part in meetings etc. If a person does have such a role, there would be people in the campaign who would be aware of it and it should be possible to track them down. But a single unnamed source claiming she is not does not seem enough proof.

This being the biography of a living person it seems to not meet Wikipedia standards to include this section on its present form. Perhaps it could be rewritten to give both sides of the controversy, or the section to be dropped entirely for the time being. At least the word "fake" needs to be removed, "Doubts about her role as an advisor" or "allegations..." seems more suitable for Wikipedia biographies. As it is the article since it relies on hearsay in a single source and not on solid evidence but claims a definitive conclusion.

The post titled “Posing as a Fake Foreign Policy Advisor” is an inaccurate and misleading summary of the facts cited in the linked opinion piece in the Washington Examiner (shouldn’t the Wikipedia post then be removed?).

The post says that the Yang campaign “has denied being associated with her in anyway” [sic], whereas the linked article just says that somebody on the campaign said she “is not [currently] an adviser.” Also, the post says that “She…claimed she was a professor at NYU's business school” (Stern School of Business), but according to the underlying article she didn’t claim to teach at Stern. --Aze.239 (talk) 18:39, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
