De-emphasising "racial politics" subsection

Latest comment: 15 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

I have removed the "Criticism and racial politics" subsection which I added in an earlier edit - the reason being that, although I feel that the content was still potentially interesting, it was over-emphasized in the article due to the size of the subsection and the subjectivity of the cited commentator. I have retained the original cited reference within the article, but relocated it to a new passage elsewhere in the article which mentions Adrian Reid's criticism of the band less explicitly. - Dann Chinn (talk) 20:24, 9 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

On second thoughts I have now removed the reference altogether due to belief that the subjectivity of the cited commentator verged on the libellous and that, on reflection, I should not have added it in the first place. If any of the content is restored at a future date, it should be with consideration of this. - Dann Chinn (talk) 23:41, 9 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have reinserted the reference as I believe that it is valid in so far as it shows criticism of the band. However, I don't think it would qualify under WP:RS for anything less-subjective. Panyd^{The muffin is not subtle} 22:39, 19 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
