about the Civil Rights-related churches, because those facts popped up when I browsed among the bluelinked churches in the list. I am not aware that those are black-only churches; i rather assume there are non-blacks involved in those churches. It would be fine and good to speak of leadership that white or not-specifically-black
Baptist churches have provided on other issues in the state. But there is nothing unbalanced, no point of view advanced, by mentioning the leadership evidence in articles as I did. I think it is wrong to suggest a racial slant on this article. I didn't check who added that tag; please do comment further here. --

1116:(ec) Orlady has re-added the unbalanced tag, not even refining the false statement "The lead misleadingly implies that all Baptist churches in Alabama are black." There is no way the article says or implies any such extreme statement. Orlady's re-adding that, worded exactly the same as before, is suggestive that this is yet another article where her involvement, following mine, is perhaps largely meant to show me up, to criticize, to nit-pick, to provide personal attacks, to
1120:. I don't believe for a second that her motivation is more to improve the article. The thrust of her involvement in this article so far, and in many others, has been to find fault in a personal, nasty way. I do hope that others, perhaps including her, will take steps to actually improve the article. I don't expect further discussion here will be helpful, so will probably not reply further, unless to respond defensively to any further accusations against me.

I am not unaware of segregation in churches and the degree of it, and I wrote a lede that did not suggest any racial bias whatsoever, IMO. The paragraph i drafted draws from the articles in the list, speaking to the most important historical events associated with these churches. The two that are U.S.

National Historic Landmarks; it is highly appropriate to mention those ones in the lede. I resent the introduction of suggestion of racism or of racial bias in the article. If

There was an "unbalanced" tag put on the article, which i have now removed, which stated "The lead misleadingly implies that all

I think I'm changing my mind about withdrawing the AfD, but Orlady's very correct about the POV issue. I've done a great deal of research myself on this when I wrote three and expanded one on the links that actually leads to an article. It needs to stay until it is balanced out.

Apparently you are not aware of the degree of segregation in
Southern Christian churches, particularly historically. The current lead focuses on a few Baptist congregations, all of which are (or were) black churches and had important roles in civil rights. In contrast, the article

P.S. I didn't see before that Orlady had opened an item here (and was the person adding the unbalanced tag). I disagree with the assertion here that the lead conveys a misleading impression at all, much less conveying the extreme idea suggested.
