Is Tom Davis actually an important or credible enough person to have an article about him? Only thing that makes him interesting is his fight with Sweeney, I recommend this article be merged with the Panorama Scientology and Me article. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 22:12, 11 March 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

'''BLP/N response''':I removed the Village Voice blog comment as it is not a reliable source and a BLP issue. The rest is cited to newspaper, so are from RS; they should be reviewed for WP:UNDUE. I'm not familiar enough with the subject to make that call. --] (]) 15:24, 31 May 2008 (UTC) |

The Editor-in-chief of ''The Village Voice'' may be considered ] in commenting about his specific area of expertise, the news and individuals representing information and discussing it on ]. The source is also ]. If {{user|Justallofthem}} considers him biased, then per Misplaced Pages site standards he is welcome to bring forth other reliable, third party sources who take a different view, in order to present the range of expert opinion on the matter. That way, Misplaced Pages's readers can make up their own minds. ] (]) 22:54, 31 May 2008 (UTC) |

'''BLP/N response''':The ] is a ], not a newspaper, from what I can see, and the material came from a tabloid blog. As such, it's my opinion that it's no more than gossip and needs to remain out of the article. I'm not an interested party to either side, but IMO that's not a RS and it's a BLPvio (]: "Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid"). The rest you'll have to come to consensus on, as it's all cited to respectable newspapers, as far as I could see. --] (]) 01:47, 1 June 2008 (UTC) |

There is a lot more information about this guy. The most notable being when he told Leah Remini she "didn't have the fucking rank" to ask where his wife was. She shortly after left the church. His drug problems as a kid. The conversation with Leah was big and on most national news channels. ] (]) 01:27, 28 April 2015 |

:'''Reply to FaithF:''' - Respectfully, there is zero source provided, so far as I can see, to show that '']'' is anything other than a respectable newspaper. Unless you can provide a third-party source for your assessment of "tabloid" ? And as for Tony Ortega, he is a Livingston Award and Eugene S. Pulliam Award finalist, and is a recipient of the Virg Hill Arizona Journalist of the Year Award, the Los Angeles Press Club Award for best news story, the 2002 Unity Award and the 2005 Association of Alternative Newsweeklies award for best column. This source is most certainly ]. Respectfully request that you please reconsider your assessment of '']'' and ]. Thanks, ] (]) 03:32, 1 June 2008 (UTC) |

::Cirt, just read the very WP article you link to for a discussion of the tabloid nature of the Voice. ps, if you make identical posts in two places it makes extra work to carry on a coherent discussion. Suggest you strike one or the other of the identical comments. --] (]) 03:56, 1 June 2008 (UTC) |
