Ryan, All,
(Regarding #51, [[Peter Singer]])
Actually, I haven't looked at this article in
awhile since I quit
editing Wikipedia. It looks like the balance is quite good, as far as
your philosophy articles go. If anything, the discussion of his
arguments on infanticide may be too prominent. But there are no
serious problems that I see.
Have you compared the German articles (at least using online translation)? It's not an
ivory tower philosophy discussion, it got a lively real world controversy with activists
from the disability rights movements and other (mostly far left) organisations trying and
often succeeding to prevent Singer speaking in Germany (and elsewhere). A stream of
articles and books published against and in defense of Singer?
And while I have no overview about the situation in the US, there seem to
be parallels, e.g.
