- @Di (they-them): I'm reviewing this. But first, I think your offline source needs a specific page number. BorgQueen (talk) 16:53, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, the pages that mention it being a symbol of love are pages 5 and 6, in the section Semantische Unterbrechung im Tristan-Roman. Di (they-them) (talk) 17:08, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- The pages need to be specified in the article too. BorgQueen (talk) 17:10, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Got it, they've now been added. Di (they-them) (talk) 17:26, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, but I'm afraid—I just Googled it—GRIN Verlag is a German self-publishing company. We generally do not accept self-published sources as per WP:SPS. BorgQueen (talk) 17:34, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, that's quite disappointing. Do you think the source and its paragraph should be removed from the article entirely, or can it be left because it's being used just to cite the author's analysis? Di (they-them) (talk) 17:47, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, the source and the paragraph will have to be removed altogether, unless you can somehow prove the author is an expert in their field so we can make an exception, or you can find a more reliable source to support the claim. BorgQueen (talk) 18:15, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Got it. Di (they-them) (talk) 18:31, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- As for ALT0, please see WP:DYKFICTION. Also, being multi-colored doesn't necessarily mean rainbow-colored. My suggestion is: ALT2 ... that a magical inanimate dog may have been a taxidermy dog, an automaton, or a metaphor? BorgQueen (talk) 19:50, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- This alt hook seems fine to me, I have no objections. Di (they-them) (talk) 20:04, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
