I'm not really involved in it, but I just want to put in my two cents anyway.  Firstly, the Breitbart article seems very relevant--I could be missing something, but I don't see a reason to challenge it as a reference.  As for the wording--I don't know that it much matters.  We don't want to be overly verbose, but we also should make the reader jump to conclusions.  Federal law is implied, but it could be understood as state law if we do not clarify that point sufficiently. I hope you can agree on a solution.  Talking on something other that edit summaries of reversions might be a god idea also. To me, either attempted version of that point seems suitable.  Perhaps efforts would better be focused on other topics.  What about an article on James Hodgkinson?  We don't want to start writing before we know the facts, but some information is already available.  (For example, we now know he was a liberal). <br />

:Yesterday, the bullet read, "Although receiving little reporting from the mainstream media, the Justice Department established a policy in April 2017 against female genital mutilation, which is practiced among many Muslims.[29]" citing just the Breitbart article.  We have now established that DOJ did not establish a policy in April 2017.  The new bullet is better, but we are arguing over whether the Breitbart article is too over-the-top and misleading to be cited to support the current bullet.  Also, please note: [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Donald_Trump_achievements&diff=1353799&oldid=1353794 diff] where two sets of three people with the same three names were thought to be a total 6 distinct people, but were in fact just three. Most of the relevant discussion is on my talk page, but 1990sguy has also moved it to Andy's talk page '''and''' the Community forum page.  A feeling of page ownership is no reason to resist logic and research.
