WP:NPOV

Despite being an accurate assessment, the sentence, "snipped" was a fairly clear breach of WP:NPOV and WP:BLP. As this article has been nominated for WP:ITN, this language needs to be cleaned up. Deterence ^Talk 02:27, 13 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I just snipped that text from this page so that the NPOV doesn't remain EdwardLane (talk) 10:23, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

fuel theft

This is the third or fourth recent incident in the last few years where fuel thieves "collecting" fuel (love how we're supposed to euphemize theft) have been killed in the course of that stupidity. There are articles on these in the 'pedia, can anyone remember?--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 03:53, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If someone punctures the pipeline to 'collect' the oil then I agree it's theft. If a leak springs up naturally due to corrosion etc then - I think it's fair to say collect (as spillage would otherwise just pollute the region until fixed). EdwardLane (talk) 08:40, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
