All four hill committee articles had redundant and partly incorrect or misleading information. I have created a hill committee article and removed the material not specific to the individual committees from their respective articles. It's actually arguable whether we need separate articles at all, given how similar all four are in structure and function. RadicalSubversiv E
[edit] My removal
This is an encyclopedia article, not a current-events summary. In the scheme of the DSCC and its entire history, the two staffers being suspended seem fairly minor (they should be mentioned at Michael Steele, however). As such, I've removed this--there's no way we'd include a similar incident if it had occurred in 1966. Best wishes, Meelar (talk) 13:07, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- This received national media coverage (i.e. significant, verifiable, etc.) That's the standard for inclusion of information on active politicians and political issues. Generally speaking, much smaller scandals have been getting far more attention in the Wikipedia than this one. patsw 14:18, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

- Coverage, yes, but where? The incident is significant enough to be mentioned in Steele's article because it was significant in the news coverage concerning him. The DSCC, by contrast, has a long history of political work that predates Steele, and will be around long after Steele is retired. In the context of the DSCC, with all that could be written about it over the course of decades, this incident doesn't rate a mention. JamesMLane t c 06:26, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
