SourceWatch talk:Articles that need fixing

Moving dated cpedia material to this page:

Member of Congress or committee articles

 * Jo Ann Davis - I just don't understand the specifications for the special election, especially the last sentence or two. This should probably be reworked, going back to the original source, to make it more clear.--Conor Kenny 23:34, 15 October 2007 (EDT)


 * The Randy "Duke" Cunningham article needs to be overhauled and updated with respect to the ongoing investigation into the ongoing Wilkes trial. The page on Brent Wilkes could probably also do with some fleshing out. In general I think all activities that the Duke was involved in should be on his page, with a summary and link from Wilkes page.--Conor Kenny 00:18, 16 October 2007 (EDT)


 * William Jefferson is really long. It should probably have all the bribery scandal information split off into a separate page that is then summarized and linked to from the main page. Lots of good stuff in there, but the scandal stuff should probably be reorganized to be a bit more cogent.--Conor Kenny 01:17, 16 October 2007 (EDT)


 * The section on John Tierney's supposed libertarian leanings should either be revised or removed. There are two sources cited -- the first does not contain the quote referenced in the entry as far as I can tell, and the second is an interview with a different John Tierney.--Squirrel


 * The section in Chuck Schumer's page on the push for bill to lift caps on GSEs really needs to go in Federal housing and mortgage legislation (U.S.). Temporarily raising cap on the GSEs is really about stabilizing the mortgage markets. Since Schumer is championing this, though, a mention should be left on his page and a main article link to the housing page would be good.--Conor Kenny 23:27, 15 October 2007 (EDT)
