Could someone take the liberty of catergorizing this article? Obviously, some choices would be abortion, etc.
It turns out that someone by the name of Iced Liquid is advertising his counter strike clan here. If you all see it again, please edit it out. Thanks.
The first sentence of the lead paragraph describes the subject as an ''"anti-abortion propaganda film"'' based on an article by now retired political science professor Rosalind P. Petchesky, an academic advocate of legal abortion. Petchesky's source article itself could reasonably be described as propaganda, as it early-on describes certain images in the film as "voyeuristic-necrophillic photographs of [fetal] remains". I think we can agree this is not the source we want for the first description of the subject. I further suggest that we drop "propandanda" from "anti-abortion film" for reasons I described in my edit to the article a day or two ago. Here's a good source that describes The Silent Scream more simply as an "an anti-abortion film".

Hopefully my recent edit fixed/resolved this. If not, we can continue to discuss.--- Avatar317 (talk) 21:01, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
