When?
[edit]Could we have a date more specific than "in 2011" and "that morning"? I suppose it would be possible to chase down MLK Day and see when it was celebrated, but it would be easier if it were actually in the text.... Thanks, Cheers, LindsayHello 04:13, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
White Supremacy
[edit]I inserted a dubious tag. The National Alliance is a White Separatist organization. There is no such thing as a White Supremacist organization that I know of. This is a libelous remark that can get Wikipedia sued. No such organizations that I know of want to rule over other races. They merely want to be rid of them.Trojancowboy (talk) 00:33, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
- recently changed to "separatist" and removed the "dubious" tag, as the issue has been resolved. Akihironihongo (talk) 00:31, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
- I agree, the problem is permanently fixed. I didn't want to do so myself without discussing it.Trojancowboy (talk) 00:33, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
- Hardly, as the source said supremacist - you can't change text that way. I've added two more sources that say supremacist. We go by what our sources say, not our opinions. And I've asked Trojancowboy to make it clear that when he uses the word libelous he doesn't intend legal action or to encourage legal action. Dougweller (talk) 17:46, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for adding the two sources that say supremacist. I was unsure myself, but I see now my act of submission to Trojancowboy was a mere blunder. A previous version of National Alliance (United States) mentioned the group as white separatist, and that was the reason I changed it. I apologize for my mistake.

- No problem, I wouldn't lump you with Trojancowboy. We all make mistakes. Dougweller (talk) 09:10, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you, I deeply appreciate your understanding. Akihironihongo (talk) 14:35, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

Vanguard News Network
[edit]This is a heads up, not a call for immediate action. The Spokesman-Review got its details wrong. Vanguard News Network is not the "website/magazine" of National Alliance. That would be National Vanguard. I understand that we have to go with what sources say, but that source has this aspect of the facts wrong. I'd be curious to see what the KOMO article states, but it is deadlinked. I'll look for other sources. 47.151.45.97 (talk) 03:29, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
