Notable Person edit
Poole founded and was president Reason Foundation a significant organization which has influenced public policy. He deserves a Wikipedia entry. I request the notable person box be removed.
Copyright Questions edit
The article has been rewritten and resourced, copyright problems have been solved.
- in fact several sentences, including pretty much the entire last paragraph, are taken from http://reason.org/staff/show/robert-poole.html. Hairhorn (talk) 19:34, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
The last paragraph bears no resemblance to the Reason page other than the list of books. In both cases the lists are comprehensive and alphabetical. This is not copyright infringement but coincidence.
Privatization edit
As has been mentioned previously, the article on Reason Foundation also cites Poole as being the first to use this term: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reason_Foundation — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sm1989199 (talk • contribs) 21:18, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
