Someone needs to learn how to write an encyclopedia article, because this is the most obvious copy and paste job I've ever seen. 173.26.55.148 (talk) 07:32, 23 February 2011 (UTC)miah
Propaganda if there ever was
This is a blatantly biased article. Who wrote this, her Chief of Staff? This article is not neutral and needs to be heavily edited. DavidSteinle (talk) 01:56, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
Agreed. Needs more citations, too. Orser67 (talk) 10:14, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
"Controversy and racism"
I have removed the "Controversy and racism" section. The part of the content that actually was about Castor was not supported by the given sources, including the allegation of racism. The claim that "Castor's staff initially attempted to claim that the teenager did not reside in Castor's district" was at best a misrepresentation indicating deliberate action for what, according to the source, might have been a honest mistake by a single staffer, who apologized when called again on the same issue. And so it goes. Editing from a Congress IP may indicate a conflict of interest, but WP:BLP goes for congressmembers, too, and removing badly-sourced content about a living person is highly appropriate.
