I do not have a problem with the negative comments, in and of themselves, simply because everyone has the right to speak, however one should be mindful of what they are speaking. And ensure that their facts are correct. However, as you read, you will discover that my concern is not about the negative words in their body (see last paragraph).

Needless to say, for every negative statement made, each could easily be rebutted with either a fact or a reasoning. But unfortunately, to do so could open up Pandora's box, a box that we all are trying to keep closed.

I could cite some examples, but I chose not to open the box.

The point is and was, the reader should be allowed to focus on the positive that the candidate can bring to the Wiki. They should not be swayed by the opinion (fact or otherwise) of the candidate without being afforded the opportunity of hearing the other side of the coin. Hence, Pandora's box.
