126 news sources, according to Google--but I maintain this is WP:ONEEVENT, and nothing more than a name-and-shame to boot. We are not the news, and this is not how notability is achieved. Drmies (talk) 20:54, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge: This is a significant event based on news coverage in reliable secondary sources, schiller does not appear to have much notability apart from this though. Merge into the article about James O'Keefe and his videos. Warfieldian (talk) 21:15, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is pretty easy to find extensive press coverage of his success as a fund raiser, most notably for the University of Chicago. There are lots of news articles about him before this incident.I.Casaubon (talk) 21:40, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I could live with a merge, yes--but not with this current BLP violation that flies in the face of NPOV and any idea of balance. Drmies (talk) 01:37, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The version (at the moment) doesn't seem to violate BLP content or sourcing-wise, and the statements are neutral. The violation if any would be a weight issue that it covers (albeit neutrally) only a single derogatory incident about a person who is potentially not notable. The NPR / secret tape incident is current news, and I'm sure this article will settle down soon, and we can iron out any lingering BLP and neutrality issues. The longer-term question is whether Schiller is notable. Query to I.Casaubon: would you mind listing some of those sources or adding them to the article? If that's true then he's probably notable and should have his own, balanced, article. I just couldn't find any in a quick google search. - Wikidemon (talk) 15:07, 9 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
