Why is the main point of this article to tell me about the group's connections to Jack Abramoff? 15:29, 18 August 2006 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.205.53.50 ( talk • contribs) {{{2}}}.
Added a sourced section on structure, membership, finances, and so on. Interestingly, none of that information is available on the ATR website. I also read an allegation that ATR began as an internal government (or possibly party) structure under Reagan before becoming independent -- does anyone have anything more solid on that? - Tenebris 01:27, 4 February 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.254.157.33 ( talk)

Hello all! Thanks for anyone stopping by to check this out. Recently I removed a sentence reading "Americans for Tax Reform is a grantee of the Donors Trust, a conservative donor advised fund." Firstly, this just seems undue. It really does not add much substance to the page. Secondly, no one is denying that this group received funding from this conservative donor fund, but it does not seem unbiased and neutral to bring it up only on pages with a certain idealogical bias. From what I have seen, it only appears to be mentioned on conservative pages and not progressive pages. This does not seem to be in the spirit of Wikipedia. I think we can all assume that most groups are getting funding from major sources of money, regardless of ideology. DaltonCastle ( talk) 06:48, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
While I appreciate the input, I believe that is supportive of POV-pushing. And I am not saying funding for political advocacy is irrelevant. I am saying 1. it is in this instance because it doesn't reveal who actually funded it, 2. it deviates from a position of neutrality to so strongly push for these edit. It doesnt make sense to add funding sources from selective donors of a particular ideology and not the other. DaltonCastle ( talk) 08:47, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
