Notable[edit]

How is this subject notable? It appears notability is inherited in this case, and the sources are somewhat dubious. Thank you.--Yachtsman1 (talk) 19:12, 29 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Primary Sources[edit]

I eliminated the primary sources from the article, as well as the puff piece on Andy Worthington's book, who is hardly notable himself and borders on unreliable because of his zealousness. Thank you.--Yachtsman1 (talk) 19:02, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Primary source aren't prohited. Policy merely requires they be used carefully. The first two references you cut were primary sources, but they were in my opinion used in a manner compliant with policy. Could you please cite the policy you think they lapsed from?

I do not believe the third reference was a primary source at all. I do not believe it was unreliable. Please see where I raised this at WP:RSN. Geo Swan (talk) 16:11, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comment. Please follow your own advice, as you use them uncarefully. You utilize primary sources to establish notability, and your articles are inevitably the product of original research as a result, with this article being no different than the others. Thus, you use a primary source, then make claims to its content. This violates WP:primary. Moreover, this has been a subject that has been raised here: [1]. I suggest you review this RFC, and follow its advice on this subject. Thank you again.--Yachtsman1 (talk) 21:53, 10 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
