Portuguese content in middle of 3RR?

ZI Jony I'm a help desk volunteer, and per this, I'm curious why you keep restoring Portuguese content that most readers cannot understand. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 22:11, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

DrJekylandMrHyde please always example in edit summary why you removed content, if you removed content and not given edit summary it’s difficult to understand because that direct section blanking. Warm Regards, ZI Jony ^(Talk) 02:06, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ZI Jony He left an edit summary here [[1]]. I'm sure part of this is whitewashing, but if this is important info covered in English sources, it can be added back in English. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 02:17, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Biased

The controversy section was clearly written by someone who doesn't like him. ~★ nmaia ^d 14:46, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, there are many far-left activists on the internet trying to erase "negative" data about subjects like Marcelo Freixo, who is a person on the same level as Nicolas Maduro or Fidel Castro. For these people, any text on the Internet about leftists has to be complimentary. Sad. Wikipedia is heavily attacked by political activists trying to keep the article unreally written. Mainly activists from the most dictatorial forces in the world, such as Muslims and the left. 2804:14D:5C83:81A0:81A6:A346:618C:25AE (talk) 11:47, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have done my best to re-work this section to better conform with the WP:NPOV and WP:V guidelines.

To briefly break down my actions, I added passages which, to the best of my knowledge are accurate, should make the first incident about the rocket more neutral.

The next two paragraphs about PSOL I deemed to be overly-biased and not verifiable enough so I have removed them for now until better sources can be found and a good argument can be made for their re-addition. They can be located in this article's history.

I re-worked the last paragraph to be more focused on Freixo's opinions regarding how to combat bandits. The sections on criticizing some beatings but not others seemed biased and hence has again been removed for now until better sources can be found and a good argument can be made for their re-addition. I also added a further quote from Friexo which I hope explains his position.

Please let me know how you feel about these decisions below and conduct further discussion about the value of this section here. I stand ready to be corrected (or slapped with a trout WP:TROUT :P) Many thanks, Jthekid15 (talk) 18:36, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
