Then, years later, in judgments he would refer back to his activist ''obiter'' and say "there has been a significant movement in legal opinion on this issue" and use it as justification for his own views. --[[User:DamianJohn|DamianJohn]] 03:30, 23 November 2012 (EST) | | :Particularly if the content is no-controversial.

| − | :::There are two questions. First, if the content is central to the CP article, encyclopedic material should be added to the CP article to properly cover the topic. Second, articles should contain external links to the best available internet sources related to the article topic. Judging by the user page BertSchlossberg is an accomplished person who has written a number of valuable works. However, it would be better if other people made the judgment that his blog is among the best external links that are appropriate for each page. When an editor adds material to an article, other people can edit it further and it becomes a community product. When an editor writes on a separate blog, it is his own viewpoint, priorities and phrasing. An author cannot be objective about his own blog, so it is best to leave it to others (regardless of the quality of the blog or its relevance to the particular CP page.)
