Accusations of anti-semitism

[edit]

Attempts to add this topic have failed, due to lacking a WP:NPOV and unbiased sources. However misguided one may think her writings to be (including about MLK's so-called Zionism), the topic can only be added as mere reportage, in a neutral, balanced, manner. I read Alan Dershowitz's The Hill article last week, lambasting her increasingly infamous NYT piece, but the polarization around the topic yielded a mere she said, he said, so wasn't suitable as a stand-alone source without drifting into WP:ORIG. It's complex, and there probably should be something written in about the controversy, but with an authoritative NPOV. Lindenfall (talk) 22:18, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

71.245.242.138"in several publications of significance to the Jewish community." expresses a lack of a NPOV. Please find more neutral sources. The item is worth adding, but not in a biased way. At this point, bring it to TALK first. Lindenfall (talk) 17:29, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I have protected the page, not to favor one version or another, but to allow editors to discuss content, tone, weight, and sourcing here on the talk page. The content should not be added back without a consensus to do so. If talk page discussion does not lead to consensus, do please request an RfC and post notices on the relevant Wikiprojects to gain as much discussion as possible. Failing that, there can be discussion at WP:BLPN and users can follow that with dispute resolution. Please remember that BLPs require the highest quality sourcing for the addition of controversial or negative content. Cheers, and happy editing.Dlohcierekim talk 22:27, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
