Removing "Weasel Words" Tag

The tag says to see the discussion page for an expanation, but I don't see one. I don't see any "weasel words" in this short article. I propose removing the tag.

In fact, since I can edit this encyclopedia myself, I removed the tag.

I believe the weasel words are from the following paragraph:

Many people enjoy the strengths of Christian pop music including its uplifting and positive nature and many listeners feel that it helps them focus on God.^{[citation needed]} Equally many listeners feel that much of Christian pop music promotes a message that is simplistic and at times trite when compared to what they believe is a much more complex and powerful message to be found in more traditional Christian music and texts.^{[citation needed]}

The "Many people think this" sentence is specifically listed under examples in Wikipedia's Avoid Weasel Words article.[1]

   * Who says that? You?
   * When did they say it? now?
   * How many people think that? Just how many is "some"? most??
   * What kind of people think that? Where are they?
   * What kind of bias might they have?
   * Why is this of any significance?

Removed Weasel Words Paragraph

I have removed the following paragraph:

Many people enjoy the strengths of Christian pop music including its uplifting and positive nature and many listeners feel that it helps them focus on God.^{[citation needed]} Equally many listeners feel that much of Christian pop music promotes a message that is simplistic and at times trite when compared to what they believe is a much more complex and powerful message to be found in more traditional Christian music and texts.^{[citation needed]}

and therefore the weasel words tag.

this paragraph is merely the opinion of one person writing in the voice of many. if you have sources for this, by all means put it back.Bantosh 16:41, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
