NPOV tag on Bhopal Disaster
[edit]I reverted some vandalism and it looked to me like the vandal had added the template. Re-add it if you wish. I am curious about what you think is POV in this article. You seem to have removed a lot of text that was cited and referenced. Generally, if something is sourced, it's okay (except, obviously, in the case of racist and hate speech mediums and the like).

- Most of the content I removed was plagiarized from its references that I would call questionable at best. Beyond that, I don't like the article's approach. I feel like it should be relatively simple and matter-of-fact, with criticisms put into the "Criticisms" section, instead of a having a running commentary throughout the whole article. It also extensively uses a "we-say, they-say" duality I don't think does an adequate job of framing the situation. Thoughts? Jemather 14:26, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
- That seems to make sense. So it's not so much POV as it is just a poorly written article with some copyright infringing text? In any case, good luck with your rewrite! TheQuandry 15:01, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
