Counterclerk or not?[edit]

Bender, I know Rachel Barkow. Despite the fact that the Schneider Mayerson article said she was the "counterclerk" for Justice Scalia, she was not. Her co-clerk was. Please remove the counterclerk reference. Thanks. 128.122.253.212 (talk) 14:40, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there is a source that claims she was the counterclerk, but no source that claims the opposite. Wikipedia Guidelines prohibit authors "from drawing on their personal knowledge without citing their sources". So unless you find a source for your claim, we're going to leave the article as it is. --bender235 (talk) 14:49, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just because there's a source doesn't mean it's true, and just because there's no source doesn't mean it's not true. Have you ever heard of the media getting something wrong? 128.122.253.228 (talk) 14:55, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

But that's how it is. --bender235 (talk) 14:58, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Specifically, verifiability and reliable sources is how it is. Rd232 ^talk 09:48, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
