Reliable sourcing tag

While some of the sourcing here certainly passes Wikipedia's reliable sourcing rules — enough, in fact, that the article gets a pass on WP:GNG grounds even though the actual claim of notability is really quite shaky on the "would a person normally qualify for an encyclopedia article for this?" question — but quite a bit of it is also primary or unreliable, or merely namechecks his existence without being substantively about him. The following references are not acceptable ones, and need to be removed:

Oregon Department of Education's own website, because that's a primary source for the fact being referenced to it;
schoolofed.wordpress.com, because WP:BLOGS;
NPR "A Prom Like Any Other", because it's not about him;
"2013 Oregon Proms - MESD", because it's (a) a dead link, and (b) revealed anyway by its URL as a photoessay, not an article;
PHAME, because it's a primary source for the fact being referenced to it;
Q Center, primary source for the fact being referenced to it;
sinq-clusters.unst.pdx.edu, primary source;
Port of Portland PDF, primary source;
500px.com, because (a) BLOGS, and (b) it's just a photo of him, not an article about him;
Washington Post "Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick split up", not substantively about him (which the title alone confirms), and not even really coverage from the WaPo itself but merely a blurb which acknowledges the existence of coverage in a non-WaPo source;
GoLocalPDX, because BLOGS;
CNN iReport, because user-generated;
Unicorn Booty, because BLOGS.

I'm not very good with notability, but I do know my verifiability. I removed some of those sources. This list is nowhere near complete because this is a biography. Also, we don't need all these redundant sources. I did some deleting, but there's much to go.Kingsocarso (talk) 20:46, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Totally agree. This wiki has details without citations and does not have a neutral POV 73.225.228.168 (talk) 03:28, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
