== Perspective biases == *[[Australia national soccer team]] - Issues with lack of gender representation for women in topical articles that are gender neutral but where the sport is gender segregated by rule. --[[User:LauraHale|LauraHale]] ([[User talk:LauraHale|talk]]) 10:36, 4 December 2013 (UTC) *[[Soccer in Australia]] - Issues with lack of gender representation for women in topical articles that are gender neutral but where the sport is gender segregated by rule. --[[User:LauraHale|LauraHale]] ([[User talk:LauraHale|talk]]) 10:36, 4 December 2013 (UTC) *[[North Korean cult of personality]] - There are serious issues of systemic bias - specifically, assignment of negative characteristics through uncited author POV - with two sections of the entry: Holidays and International. Please [http://Talk:North_Korea%27s_cult_of_personality see the Talk Page] for more information on these issues. [[User:BlueSalix|BlueSalix]] ([[User talk:BlueSalix|talk]]) 19:00, 23 August 2013 (UTC) *[[Barack Obama]] -- Written from largely a liberal view, and not neutral. No handling of current policy criticisms. [[User:Paranormal Skeptic|Paranormal Skeptic]] ([[User talk:Paranormal Skeptic|talk]]) 18:25, 10 March 2009 (UTC) **I fail to see how this is written in a liberal view. It seems to be pretty matter-of-fact. If he advances a policy it is enough to say that he did so. It is a statement of fact not a statement of the benefits or detriments of the policy. As to current policy criticism, the place for that is on your favorite blog, not on Wikipedia. This is in line with the treatment of other US presidents. Look at [[Herbert Hoover]]. He was extremely unpopular, but you still don't have a huge portion of the article dealing with detailed policy criticism, when he is arguably the most deserving of it. What criticisms there are can be made with 80 years of insight and is backed up with historians as sources, not political analysts. [[User:Timothyjosephwood|Timothyjosephwood]] ([[User talk:Timothyjosephwood|talk]]) 19:25, 3 April 2015 (UTC) *[[Execution of Saddam Hussein]] -- Lack of sources other than main US news outlets such as CNN or in the case of a British news outlet, the BBC. US-sources dominate the article, and this reflects in the tone. Would need an array of both independent and international sources. [[User:Sfacets|Sfacets]] 02:30, 2 January 2007 (UTC) As of May 2011 there are a number of non-US-non-British sources. *[[Covance]] -- Focuses on animal testing information with an animal rights slant. Does not provide sufficient, accurate information on other areas of business, which include FDA nutritional testing and antibody development. [[User:Orcar967|Orcar967]] 17:27, 22 October 2007 (UTC) *[[paint]] -- only deals with the art aspect not the commercial painting aspect. *[[Pregnancy (mammals)]] - focuses too much on humans by using the word "pregnancy" instead of "gestation". This article was initially split from the article about human [[pregnancy]]. Also, doesn't define well which animals gestate and which not, and discounts gestation in other animals, if any. *[[Wikimedia movement]] is written from an insider point of view, without mentioning criticism made by [[MediaWiki]] developer [[User:Tim Starling]]. My edit which added it was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia&diff=21098678&oldid=21080547 removed] by a sysop who used his revert power. [[User:Wikinerd|Wikinerd]] 03:31, 16 August 2005 (UTC) **FWIW, "his revert power" consists of skipping a click: it is exactly the same ability anyone else has to revert an edit, just slightly more efficient. -- [[User:Jmabel|Jmabel]] | [[User talk:Jmabel|Talk]] 05:14, August 16, 2005 (UTC) *[[List of people who have been considered deities]] - Western bias in addressing the concept of God and divinity. Article is currently protected due to ongoing disputes. Please come and help out at the [[Talk:List of people who have been considered deities|talk page]]. --[[User:Zappaz|ZappaZ]] [[Image:Yin_yang.svg|12px]] 17:01, 14 September 2005 (UTC) **There is no more Western bias. [[User:Johnny Au|Johnny Au]] ([[User talk:Johnny Au|talk]]) 21:23, 27 December 2007 (UTC) *[[Robinson list]] -- mentions the US Do Not Call list, but then proceeds to deal with only email spam and talk about Robinson lists as if they were only for spam. * [[Myth]] and related articles -- some mythologies are treated differently from other mythologies. Problems with definition. Many editors have strong feelings about these articles. – [[User:Ish_ishwar|ishwar]] [[User_talk:Ish_ishwar|<small>(speak)</small>]] 05:13, 6 July 2006 (UTC) * The [[Democracy]] article needs attention to ensure that it does not suffer from a bias from the point of view perspective of [[liberal democracy]]. [[User:BruceHallman|BruceHallman]] 19:16, 16 December 2006 (UTC) * All articles related to the [[creation–evolution controversy]], including [[Intelligent design]], and [[Objections to evolution]], among several others. Particularly strident defense of bias on talk pages. [[User:Gnixon|Gnixon]] 23:52, 8 April 2007 (UTC) *[[Media coverage of the Iraq War|2003 invasion of Iraq media coverage]] - This article would benefit from a lot more information on how media outside of the U.S. and Britain covered the war. --[[User:Mackabean|Mackabean]] 22:29, 6 June 2007 (UTC) *[[Guantanamo Bay detention camp]] - The global perspective section of this article could be lengthened considerably. I don't know a lot about this, but my sense is that Guantanamo has received considerable attention from U.S. allies and opponents around the world. --[[User:Mackabean|Mackabean]] 22:36, 6 June 2007 (UTC) *[[Alternative education]] - It is heavily POV in favour of this type of education, since most authors of the article are pro-alternative education. I believe that there should be a section about the criticisms regarding this written by those who support [[traditional education]]. [[User:Johnny Au|Johnny Au]] 00:09, 26 August 2007 (UTC) *[[Traditional education]] - There should be more background information regarding this topic rather than being mainly a comparison of the two types of education. Additionally, the article seems as if it were written by those who support alternative education. <s>The article is also USA-centric</s>. [[User:Johnny Au|Johnny Au]] 00:16, 26 August 2007 (UTC) **It is no longer USA-centric. [[User:Johnny Au|Johnny Au]] ([[User talk:Johnny Au|talk]]) 21:19, 27 December 2007 (UTC) *[[Joseph McCarthy]] - Several editors continue to alter any edits to their POV introduction, calling those who oppose Communism "extreme", and that is just the tip of the iceberg.
