I added a blurb about the reciprocity mess at the above address. If anyone has any sources that are wiki acceptable or cares to rephrase the last line, that would be great.

For being unsourced, which it was.

Can anybody point me to a solid source for background on the controversy?

I undid the removal and posted a cite to one of Joel's blog posts.

I'm pretty sure that someone is going to complain about the paragraph being "unencyclopediac". As is, it's more of a news report about the protest t-shirts at the caucuses than an explanation of the controversy.

Does anyone know if this issue as had it to any papers? I think I remember someone saying that they were going to be in the local paper. If we could cite a "news" organization then it should be able to stay up.

Is this getting more scruttiny from wiki because of the possible vice-presidential run?

And it's gone again. Pulled by an admin, because the sources are 'reliable'.

The Wikipedia theory is that the shoddy reporting of the Star Tribune is "reliable," but the careful reporting of independent reporters like Doug and Joel is not.

I didn't think Wiki would get so contentious about this. Makes one wonder how admin status is attained.
