Putting quotes into context

[edit]

Do you understand the concept of context? For example, look at your recent edit on Ward Churchill. You stick in a quote from a juror without explaining who said it and why it's relevant. The fact that the preceding statement is about the amount of damages awarded by the jury does not make it clear that the following statement is by one of the jurors explaining why the amount they awarded was so low.

You seem to just insert sentences without thinking about what they mean in relation to the rest of the text. A similar example is your hysterical attack on Jezhotwells at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard. A series of almost incoherent statements about his perfectly sensible edits on Rand Kannenberg. Incidentally if I was a registered editor I'd conduct the GA review on the Kannenberg article now and it would be instant fail. It reads like a (poor) résumé not following style guidleines for wikipedia articles. It's most definitely non neutral and the section on criticism is unintelligible.

Despite reading it more than once I'm still unclear about why Kannenberg is notable. So he lectures on drug rehab and he's been to all 50 states, big deal. I'd almost be tempted to suggest that it be deleted. 80.189.44.174 (talk) 17:39, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Are you serious about the edit on Churchill? If yes, please read it again. I was simply responding to another editor's request for a citation and did so. "On the following day, Churchill filed a lawsuit in state court claiming that the firing was retribution for expressing politically unpopular views.[1] On April 1, 2009, a Colorado jury found that Churchill had been wrongly fired, but awarded only $1 in damages.[2] Jurors stated that the damages should not be seen as "a slap in his face or anything like that" as Churchill's attorney had stated the case was about justice and not the money, "We took his word for that."[citation needed] At the verdict, Churchill's counsel asked Judge Larry J. Naves of Denver District Court to order reinstatement in light of the verdict. + On the following day, Churchill filed a lawsuit in state court claiming that the firing was retribution for expressing politically unpopular views.[3] On April 1, 2009, a Colorado jury found that Churchill had been wrongly fired, but awarded only $1 in damages.[2] "It's just that David Lane kept saying this wasn't about the money, and in the end, we took his word for that."[4]--CommCorr (talk) 21:25, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
