User talk:Taraindiana/Lenny Waller

Hi Tara. Assuming you still want to do this (and you may not... which is OK):

This currently reads like a magazine article. Things like, "he was a font of knowledge about BDSM in New York City" can't be there, at best you can quote someone saying that and indicate that "historian ABC saw him as a font of knowledge for the leather community". The good thing is this will get rid of the copyright violation that PM is worried about.
We need to source each fact in the article. He started working in the clubs in 1968, who says that.
We need mainstream sources
It needs to get formated like a biography. To get a taste you may want to look at Category:People

Let me know what you want me to do from here CD-Host (talk) 02:25, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
