free cash

In the July 24th Tribune and Sun Times, there are a number of articles about Wilson's giving out checks and cash at a church. For example, Byrne, John and Rick Pearson, "Rauner rips Wilson over cash giveaway," pp. 1 and 6 of the Trib and Dahleen Glanton's opinion piece, "Wilson must keep "Robin Hood" out of politics," on p. 3.Kdammers (talk) 15:50, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality

@PickleG13: Could you expound on what in this article gives rise to neutrality concerns from you? SecretName101 (talk) 16:24, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SecretName101: Hello! This was mostly an issue of the structure of certain lines and how they are divided up, alongside things like the existence of a Philanthropy and Nonprofit section without the substantial information to back it. I removed said Philanthropy section, and I think the article is pretty solid now. The spacing of certain aspects, and the continued sourcing of various Personal life / Early life info from one source, made me think that there was an attention to adding more content and density (in the form of more sections) than potentially needed. However, if you think the article has been made neutral, which I would argue it pretty much has, then feel free to unflag it! And let me know if you need any more help.
