Talk:Jim Cooper (California politician)

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

This page is about a politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy. For that reason, this article is at increased risk of biased editing, talk-page trolling, and simple vandalism.

If you are a subject of this article, or acting on behalf of one, and you need help, please see this help page.

Campaign page copy/paste?

So, this article seems to be more or less taken from this person's campaign website, in violation of Wikipedia's BLP guidelines (material self-published by the author should not be overly self-serving.)

As there is literally not one citation in this mess, I intend to trim down the press release-style material, and perhaps add some other bits that are cited and are from more reliable sources.

Any help much appreciated! Thanks. Drkslvr (talk) 04:49, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Found it...

All of that very questionable material was added I'm one edit, which I have rolled back. Interestingly, they also deleted what appears to this editor to have been very relevant information on the subject's previous city counsel service, which I have restored.
