Original research, Timmons & Company
[edit]Hi. What's the reason this is original research? Is it because he's not reported in reliable sources as a political advisor to the Obama campaign, he's not the same Dan Shapiro that's reported as a political advisor to the Obama campaign, or something else. Thanks. Ha! (talk) 04:34, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- What is the source for that assertion? ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 04:36, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- that he's from Timmons & Co and also is a foreign policy advisor for Obama in the same article is in another Washington Post article [5]
- he's also listed as an Obama campaign foreign policy advisor on the Political_positions_of_Barack_Obama#Foreign_policy_advisors page that I wiki-linked him to
- In terms of the text that wasn't removed remove though, I noticed he's no longer listed as vice president on the Timmons website [6], although he was in the version that was current in Jan 2008 [7]; so it's likely he's not VP any more and Michelle M. Bright is instead. Ha! (talk) 05:20, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
I see .... I think that my mistake was related to some confusing wording. Shapiro is the VP of Timmons... ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 15:54, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Also, it seems that the advisory role to the Obama campaign, was during the primaries. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 15:55, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I agree (the CNN article and video above is from a month after the primaries) or get your point. Do you object to the text being in the article? If you do what are your objections? To clarify my position - my original reason for adding it was to try and stay balanced and demonstrate the "bipartisan" claim in the Politico source. Ha! (talk) 01:31, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Merge?
[edit]- Oppose If this article can not stand on its own, it clearly should not be merged into a biography either. It is not biographical material to begin with. Collect (talk) 09:57, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
Follow the tag's link to the merge discussion; this is not where it's happening. Dicklyon (talk) 20:24, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
