Mr. Poor's implementation of WP's NPOV philosophy

[edit]

User: Ed Poor's personal page begins with this statement:

I haven't the slightest idea how I wound up getting sysop and developer rights, unless it's that I help out a lot and do what I'm told. Or maybe because I am "someone who is gifted at articulating and implementing WP's NPOV philosophy.

Let's look at Mr. Poor's change comments on the Red Scare page to see his implementation of WP's NPOV philosophy in action:

Not all historians agree with this POV - just those who saw nothing wrong with communism - those murderous butchers who killed over 100 Million civilians.

Perhaps Mr. Poor is someone who is gifted at articulating and implementing WP's NPOV philosophy. Or perhaps he knows how to, as he says, "do what I'm told" (actually, I have no doubt he excels at that). Or perhaps Wikipedia is owned and controlled by a wealthy capitalist, Jimbo, and he and his little cabal see Mr. Poor as their brethren and invited him into ranks. -- Lancemurdoch 02:44, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)
