Talk:Rosa Luz Alegría

Issues of controversy

The article on José López Portillo has a New York Times reference that identifies Rosa Luz Alegría as a mistress who received a $2 million mansion. Spanish language sources such a 2004 article on nepotism in Vertigo magazine[1] seem to support this. --VSerrata 10:52, 27 March 2007 (UTC) Added a book ref now. --VSerrata 12:45, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

CEMPAE role overstated??

Much of the material in this article with a positive tone was added by single-article-editor User:Mdbolivar in April 2006. It may overstate Alegria's contribution to CEMPAE. There is an academic Spanish-language source at [2] - see page 42 - where Alegria is mentioned once only. Any offers of translation?? --VSerrata 14:42, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Other stuff about CEMPAE includes [3] and [4] in English, and [5]in Spanish. None of these seem to mention Alegria's personal role. And the director general of CEMPAE was Pedro Alegria, as [6], apparently her brother (according to a thesis footnote on p.176 here). So I'm getting inclined to remove Mdbolivar's POV material. --VSerrata 17:02, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Please delete anything that can not be attributed to a reliable published source

Please delete anything in this article that can not be attributed to a reliable published source, meaning look for a source for the claims and if you can't find a source for a claim then delete the claim. Arbcom will back you 100%. Three revert rule does not apply to removing unattributed material concerning living persons (so long as you aren't doing it to hundreds of articles all at once since the idea is to provide attribution and we can't do that all at once). You don't even have to look for a source if in your opinion the claim is questionable or contentious and unsourced or poorly sourced, but it is better to look if you have the time.

Yes. But... personally I'm not comfortable with the wider systemic consequences if we're not thinking about what we're doing - almost as Shakespeare said. With potentially good articles I'm inclined to eventualism and finding a way that serves WP:NPOV just as much as WP:ATT. I'm intending to wait a few days here because I've asked a translator for input and I've left a suggestion at BLP talk about handling unsourced statements where they are significant for the balance of the article.

I've now shortened the unattributed User:Mdbolivar material to a point where it's in a roughly reasonable balance and tagged it. The claims made are plausible and non-contentious; and removing them would wipe out a record of public service that's probably notable in the country. IMO that's a fair starting point for future editors to work on. VSerrata 06:52, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
