→Remove "ideologically motivated" tags
:::::::I think it's disturbing that you are blowing around a lot of talk. If the points are inaccurate, then disprove them! Did you consider that maybe the reason the article isn't crowded with citation tags is because the points are accepted to be true and the questionable ones have already been removed? We don't need citations for statements like "the sky is blue" or "Hilary is a liberal". -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 03:21, 19 November 2008 (EST)

::::::::I don't know how you would go about disproving some of these. For example, look at the second one. I have never heard ''anyone'' make that argument. You can't prove or disprove it because its just random. Besides, the commandments say everything that is posted should be true and verifiable. Logic dictates that this would mean when someone adds to an article they should use references, instead of just making it up off the top of their head.

::::::::If the statement were accepted to be true, then you're right, they would not need citations. But they are not accepted to be true, which is the point of the argument in the first place! If FernoKlump thought it was common knowledge, he wouldn't have placed fact tags. --'' '''[[user:JArneal|<font color="#006666" >JArneal</font>]]''' '' 18:15, 19 November 2008 (EST)
