Grossly Unbalanced Article

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This article is extremely one-sided. It provides quotes only from those who opposed HaNegbi's convivtion, and goes to tremendous lengths to downplay his actions and the conviction. The fact that a friend of his wanted the prosecutor fired is both irrelevant and to be expected. I could easily provide quotes from other leaders who thought the prosecutor was fair and efficient.

The article also neglects to mention Hanegbi's hoodlum-like behavior against Arab Students at Hebrew University.

The artiocle also omits clearly illegal action by HaNegbi during the withdrawal from Sinai, including interfering with the army's withdrawal actvities and chaining himself to a war memorial.

I don't want to start an editing war here, so I will wait to see if I get any responses before providing some balance to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mlavie (talk • contribs) 11:08, 27 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

It looks like at least some of what you mention was addressed. The quotes and such are no longer there. Not being all that familiar with the guy it seems pretty neutral at present as far as the trial bit is concerned as well as the rest. However the other stuff (withdrawal from Sinai, incidents while at the university) is obviously not there. If it can be properly sourced and verified, obviously it should be there, bearing in mind that the Biography of Living Persons guidelines must apply as well as keeping the article balanced and neutral. Source it, ref tag it, and boldly go forth. Just understand that if your sources are poor or things are too contentious people might revert you, and bear in mind the arbitration that is in place on these articles, for which I'm going to go ahead and add the template. The stuff you mention, as you might imagine, has a lot of controversy and emotion behind it and for that reason I tend to hesitate to edit these kinds of articles. That doesn't mean other people shouldn't, within the guidelines mentioned. Rifter0x0000 (talk) 03:22, 2 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
