Sarah Douglas/Margaret Pilleau

I am new to this: I can't actually 'cite' anything, but I do not like to see information that is wrong!

I know that she is one and the same person as she gave me a photograph of herself after we left school and signed the back with 'stage name - Sarah Douglas'.

As Margaret Pilleau she appeared in Blakes 7. There is quite a lot of information about her on Google, eg http://www.tv.com/margaret-pilleau/person/209458/appearances.html

For some time she lived in Southwater,Horsham Sussex. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Estelle65 (talk • contribs) 15:18, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Are you saying that the woman in our Sarah Douglas article is the woman you went to school with? If so, is there anything else in the biography (other than her parent's names) that you think is incorrect? If they are one and the same person, perhaps she has been using two different stage names (not unknown in the acting profession). In any case, to revise the article, we'd need proof. I'll do a bit of checking myself, to see if I can find anything further. AndyTheGrump (talk) 15:33, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

In 1951 an Edward Douglas married Beryl C Borg in Stratford upon Avon. I can tell you Margaret went to the Weber Douglas Acting School and she also worked with Hayley Mills in "The Chalk Garden". This was in a letter she wrote in the 1960s. I have not seen the film. In the Wiki article it said she married Richard Leparmentier in 1981. A Sarah Douglas married Edgar F Le Parmenter in Warwickshire in 1981. Margaret Pilleau married the following, 1967 Norman Taylor, 1991 Leonard Holdstock and 1998 David Young. That is on www.ancestry.co.uk

I was born in 1946 and Margaret is 2 or 3 years older than I, her birthday being in May. I realise that in the acting profession things are never quite what they seem!!

I cannot provide any proof, in my many moves Margaret's letters (and other correspondence) were mislaid. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Estelle65 (talk • contribs) 15:54, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

All rather strange. We can really only go by what the sources we have tell us though. I'll carry on looking, anyway. AndyTheGrump (talk) 16:10, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Benjamin Barber

YOu took out a lot of information claiming that it is not sourced. All the information if sourced, Mr. Barber is a paid agent for the Gadaffi Foundation, it is on his own website, he did give the interviews where the item listed were taken from. I request that you should do some reserach before delting

EagleEye (talk) 17:16, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

The information isn't sourced - you have given no links to Barber's website, or to anything else. I suggest you do some research before editing, and then add the proper links at the time, per WP:BLP policy. You might do well to read WP:NPOV too. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:24, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Ancient Astronaut

It clearly states the website is the Ancient Astronaut Society and those are its members.

What would be a better source? As there is a full list with each name stating it has a publications etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.229.148.12 (talk) 14:24, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

See WP:FRINGE, and discuss this on the article talk page, where others can see the debate. AndyTheGrump (talk) 14:29, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

I see a visit WP:AE on WP:ARBR&I grounds

We have WP:SPA at AFD... I am begin to collect evidence off wiki. Would you begin to prepare the same? The Resident Anthropologist (talk)•(contribs) 23:37, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

I approve.·Maunus·ƛ· 23:43, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

I see that User:Miradre was notified regarding WP:ARBR&I [1], I'd thus think that raising the issue formally might be worthwhile. I'm not sure there will be much need for any extra evidence, as contravention of this is undeniable:

"Single purpose accounts are expected to contribute neutrally instead of following their own agenda and, in particular, should take care to avoid creating the impression that their focus on one topic is non-neutral, which could strongly suggest that their editing is not compatible with the goals of this project".

A 'neutral' editor would at least attempt to present both sides of a case, rather than asking for others to do it. AndyTheGrump (talk) 23:51, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
