Comment

[edit]

I am looking at the GA review of this article, and it doesn't go into any significant depth. The article appears to be a collection of two controversies under the same subject, made by those who oppose the view points of two GOP candidates during the 2012 election cycle. While I can see how each merit their own article per WP:EVENT, it still reads like an attack page against both individuals. This makes me wonder how this is neutral at all. If I were to reassess this for GA, it would fail on that point alone.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 06:08, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Whether this article should exist

[edit]

It appears to me that most of the sources used here speak particularly about specific comments made, and not about the comments taken together as a whole. The "Wider impact" section is good (though seems to be overstating what the reliable sources are actually saying), but I am wondering whether we are running afoul of WP:SYNTH by having an article that seems to place these comments together, where there is actually relatively little coverage linking them.
