GA Reassessment

I shall write more later. However, as the author of a GA article Shapley–Folkman lemma, I was shocked by the tendentious editing and COI problems of this article. It obviously fails GA criteria, because of misuse of sources and NPOV violations.

For example, the article failed to mention that the old Socialist Party changed its name to Social Democrats, USA, until I added the NYT article. Its blames a group called "Schachtmanites" for taking control of the old SP, citing a Washington Post article, whose on-line version only mentions Schachtman (and not SDUSA or his position within the Socialist Party, at least in the on-line version cited).

Procedurally, it would be useful for advocates or officers of this organization to either stop COI editing or to declare their COI. Bluntly, these COI problems are related to the NPOV violations. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 12:14, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
