Politics

edit

I have reverted your additions of "Politics" sections to various articles. Unless a subject has made politics a part of their public persona (i.e. they have spoken publicly about their political positions), their private political donations, while verifiable through public records, should not be part of their Wikipedia articles. The fact that you are focused solely on those who have donated to the Trump campaign indicates that you may not be acting in a neutral fashion with these edits.

What specific policies am I violating here Dan? These are business people, their financial transactions are a part of their public persona, especially if those transactions affect policies regulating their business. These are public records so it is by definition part of their public persona. If a public figure were arrested would we be debating whether that's part of their "public persona"? Neutral POV doesn't mean that contributors aren't allowed to have their own opinions, only that those opinions shouldn't be reflected in the article. Many people edit articles on subjects they are passionate about.Iblismesdara (talk) 11:55, 25 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
I do believe that your edits violate WP:NPOV because you clearly have a political agenda in making them. The subjects' financial transactions are not part of their public persona unless they choose to make politics a public part of their persona, which none of these subjects have. Everyone is free to donate to the political candidates of their choice. You have no evidence that these transactions affect the business decisions of these donors. However, if you'd like to continue to press your point, I suggest you make comments at the respective article talk pages and try to find consensus for adding this information.

I have brought this matter to the attention of the Neutral point of view noticeboard where you, I, and interested parties and administrators can continue the discussion. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 11:39, 26 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
