Original Research

[edit]

The section on the Kennedy speech is OR, both because it doesn't cite any sources and provides original analysis of the significance of the speech. There is probably some secondary material somewhere analyzing the speech in this way but, as is, this is entirely WP:OR -Etherfire (talk) 11:27, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You've twice[1], [2] added Template:Original research to this article. However, the above states the callout is specific to the Kennedy section which means Template:Original research section (or perhaps Template:Speculation section) is more appropriate. The template and location has therefore been swapped in the article. Per WP:SOFIXIT, no objection to modifying the "speculative" content. UW Dawgs (talk) 15:03, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies again @UW Dawgs:, I didn't see the OR section tag originally when I searched for the tag. Regardless, I didn't want to just outright delete OR in case anyone has substantiated versions of this analysis. But the final two paragraphs are clearly OR, and I'd be fine with deleting them since they are (for the first) speculative analysis of the motives behind the mention of the speech and (for the second) unwarranted statements about its prescience (which is perhaps more a violation of WP:NOT).
