Some people just need to…

That section is grossly biased, clearly hostile, clearly opinion but not presented as such. Further it's not clear what group could be attributed to holding this belief since contrary to what might be suggested by the section it isn't a Christian belief, since most Christians believe "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself" (Mathew 22-39), and "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." (John 8-7). Even if this could be revised so that it is identifiable as opinion based claim attributed to some group the criticism appears innapropriate for a biographical page since it is opposing the entire religion rather than the subject of the page. 24.35.36.21 07:50, 22 December 2005 (UTC)21/12/05 2:52am EST Eve G.

That's an incredibly naïve position to take. "Love thy neighbour" is clearly a Christian sentiment; but the way some Christians behave, you would be forgiven for thinking otherwise. Nuttyskin (talk) 03:54, 5 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Content

Upon reviewing the Zsuzanna Budapest's website, I find that most if not all of the information in this article comes directly from her website. I suggest it is completely rewritten with sources. ~Alosel~ | ^(Talk) 11:12, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, an editor did copy and paraphrase much of the article from her website, as noted in this edit summary. [1] The editor claimed to have her permission, but unless that permission is clear on the website itself, Wikipedia can't take the editor's word for it. There are methods for granting permission, however, as detailed here. --GentlemanGhost (talk) 21:21, 19 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to be more like a press release then a biography, the way her mother is mentioned here is like an old Llewellyn author bio, has anybody ever challenged her claims to be from a long family line of witches?

Stub?

Isn't this a pretty long article to still be called a stub? Rosencomet (talk) 16:49, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Source for her comments on trans-gendered people...

Here[2] (in the comments) is where Budapest expresses her opposition to trans-gendered women. Unfortunately, it's not really a reliable source... I've found similar comments elsewhere, and last I heard there was a planned journal article surrounding the incidents in the blog post above... if anyone has a copy this could provide a source for the comments the IP keeps adding. (Also, as an aside to the IP, they were not ejected from one of "her" events... as far as I can tell, she wasn't even there. She was expressing support for the people who did the ejecting.) eldamorie (talk) 14:37, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Although the IP address cannot for obvious reasons be tracked directly to her, it is an urban land-line IP address tracing to the neighborhood of her home in Berkeley, California. While this is not final evidence in the sense of being incriminating to a jury, it is certainly more likely to be her than to be someone else. La Maupin (talk) 22:12, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I remember reading this a few years ago, not long after the incident [3]and also this [4] which has a ink to a post in Z Budapest's facebook discussing protests where she clearly identifies TS and women separately [5] Not sure enough about source standards for wikipedia to just add these, but providing links for other editors.

Deletion re: copyright issues

I'd like to ask about the logic behind your deletion of most of this article based on a copyright issue from 2008. This article has been totally rewritten in 2009. I mean totally; the article had been stripped down to about 3 sentences, and since rebuilt with new, properly cited text, wikified, section included, extensive bibliography and references supplies, and as the result of the work of quite a few editors it has no resemblance to anything that might have been objected to or even existed at that time. please review the article and its timeline and see whether this is true, and reconsider deleting almost the entire article including non-controversial data like bibliographies. It seems to me that you have deleted the very material that eliminated the problems you are reacting to. I ask you to look further into it. Rosencomet (talk) 01:22, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Citation Needed Tags

It seems that all the info needed to supply the requested inline citations is in the reference material supplied. I will try to do some of this work, but I would appreciate help.Rosencomet (talk) 19:51, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
