Neutrality

[edit]

The neutrality (WP:POV) of the following sentence has been questioned:

The tortuous manner of his execution is frequently cited by opponents of capital punishment in the United States.

Feel free to discuss here:

  • I wrote the sentence. I believe it is a matter of fact rather than opinion and that it explains why Evans' case is more notable than the typical executed murderer. Dystopos 21:37, 25 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • The sentence is fine as it is; when I first read it, it was taken out of context and the article was not cited. However, I think the description at John Louis Evans#Execution justifies the use of "tortuous". Sango123 01:27, July 26, 2005 (UTC)

Time paradox

[edit]
If the television program was aired prior to the execution, it follows that it would not include details of the execution, so the reference to those details being omitted is unnecessary. 71.103.10.69 (talk) 19:03, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
