Neutrality of the article
[edit]Can we discuss why the neutrality of this article was raised in 2014?
Tom Paxton obviously had leftist views. Is the idea that this article is speaking from that voice?
A bit of the tone of the article is quite congratulatory of him. Is that the issue?
Tom Paxton is a giant of the American folk scene, and his songwriting alone makes him noteworthy. I'm gonna try to sharpen up the encyclopedic language of the article. I don't believe the issues I raised above are major, or even necessarily exist. But this good article can get better. CarolOfTheForest (talk) 12:43, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
- I have removed the tag. If anyone has concerns they can raise them here. SilkTork ✔Tea time 08:24, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
