Writing about politicians for a newspaper is a developed skill; that's why newspapers and magazines are so expensive. Writing about politicians from a neutral point of view for an encyclopedia is so rare that salesmen hardly every come to your door anymore.
Congressman Able is in favor of blue skies. Or is he opposed to red skies? It makes a difference. The language on this page does not exhibit a neutral point of view WP:NPOV For that reason, there is a tag on the Dan Huberty page. I will watch this page, if you have questions.

The section on Videotape Controversy has been removed. It must not be replaced in its current form. Rhadow (talk) 09:51, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
standard discretionary sanctions are authorized for all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people.That definiation clearly includes this article, and all editors of it are now on notice that Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions applies here.

But you know that anyway, you're just being dishonest.Didn’t you just get off a block for personal attacks hours ago? I’d suggest you be more careful in comments about other editors. Objective3000 (talk) 19:46, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Please spell out the names of US states (and any sub-national areas for other countries, too), and wiki-link them on first mention. Do not use postal abbreviations. (that is use Texas not TX.) As WP:NOTPAPER we don't need to save the space (In a tight table different considerations might apply) and the names (esp with the links) will be clearer to people not resident in the US, and perhaps even to some not living in the relevant part of the US. Wikipedia should be aimed at a global audience as much as possible. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 20:06, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
It's not clear to me that ratings from primary sources such as the Project Vote Smart website really have any place in this article unless they have been reported in reliable secondary sources. It's not at all clear how one might select which ratings to report from a page which lists dozens of individual ratings on an enormous range of issues. I'm therefore somewhat bemused at Azerorth92's apparent insistence on including these. Jonathan A Jones (talk) 20:16, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Hello Jonathan A Jones -- This page has been troublesome for a couple of months. Editors have insisted on inserting the subject's religion, and what his birthplace is -- as if all of America is not full of carpetbaggers. Great point. No citations from Empower Texas. Rhadow (talk) 20:26, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Jonathan A Jones has consistently removed large amounts of content ("ratings"). Project Vote Smart is a credible site in accordance with wiki guidelines and is used in the "ratings" section for countless other politician's pages. I am confused by Jonathan A Jones and his insistence on deleting this information, which leads me to believe the user has a conflict of interest or is committing an NPOV violation with regards to this page. When I put in the ratings, I put both good and bad scores. If it is coming across as selective ratings, I would be more than happy to add more ratings (both positive and negative). That being said, there is no legitimate reason to delete the ratings section altogether. If these ratings get deleted, one must also delete every other rating section within numerous politician's pages.
It's not clear to me that ratings from primary sources such as the Project Vote Smart website really have any place in any article of this kind unless they have been reported in reliable secondary sources, so yes, if similar sections are found on other pages they should also be deleted unless they are properly sourced. And on another point that's now the second allegation of bad faith with Azeroth92 has made in the last few hours. Jonathan A Jones (talk) 20:48, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Jonathan A Jones First of all, your editing history and reasoning have left me suspicious, so I have every right to voice my opinion on what I believe may be a violation of the wikipedia rules. Second of all, let me explain to you how Project Vote Smart works. During each legislative session each organization (YCT, NRA, Conservation League of America, NARLA Pro-Choice, etc.) Takes a stance of "yea" or "nay" for every piece of legislation that makes to the house/committee. They then compare each individual politician's voting record with their own checklist for what they believe to be the "best" voting (according to their own organization). They then create a score based off of the ratio of the amount of "correct" and "incorrect" votes (with regards to each organizations own personal agenda). The voting history with any bill can be found on the following website http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/BillLookup/BillNumber.aspx which is what the organizations use to see if individual politicians have voted in accordance with their own ideology. These organizations then post their respective "scores" on their websites, which Project Vote Smart pulls data from to publish the scores. Now that you have a better understanding of the Website/source, explain to me how it is not a valid or credible source
Objective3000 Constant edit warring? You mean my one warning with regards to this page. In addition, I have a right to express my concern for violation of wiki rules. As I'm sure you know, any user has the complete right to make a notation of instance they believe are in violation of wikipedia's rules. In addition, I have still yet to hear a reason why Project Vote Smart is not a credible source, especially after my explanation. Care to explain why you believe it is?

Jonathan A Jones Like you said, you've been here for 11 years. So please explain to me how Project Vote Smart is not credible considering my explanation. You have not addressed the original issue, but rather you are only commenting on your seniority over me.
