LaVey a Jew?
[edit]LaVey biographers agree that he lied about his ancestry, which is why we don't trust any biographies he approved.
Also, findagrave.com fails WP:USERG which means we can't cite it. Binksternet (talk) 02:56, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Why would someone lie about their ancestry to a biographer? Where is the agreement by his biographers about this?
- Do you trust the official twitter account of the Church of Satan which claims he was definitively Jewish?

- LaVey lied to create a mystique about himself. He said his birth name was Anton Szandor LaVey but it was really Howard Stanton Levey. He fabricated other aspects of his life, including his ancestry. Lots of this stuff is explained at Talk:Anton LaVey, and you'll find links to old research work online, compiled by skeptics.

[edit]
When adding links to material on external sites, as you did to Anton LaVey, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube or Sci-Hub, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe the linked site is not violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:
- If the linked site is the copyright holder, leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page;
- If a note on the linked site credibly claims permission to host the material, or a note on the copyright holder's site grants such permission, leave a note on the article Talk page with a link to where we can find that note;
- If you are the copyright holder or the external site administrator, adjust the linked site to indicate permission as above and leave a note on the article Talk page;
If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead. StephenMacky1 (talk) 12:27, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
