Unreliable sources and undue weight

edit

The unreliable sources issue is rather straightforward: at a minimum, Forbes contributor pieces are generally considered to not be reliable (see WP:RSP). Additionally, some of the other cited sources, such as galleries or events exhibiting Zuckerman's work, may not be sufficiently independent to be reliable for their claims.

The undue weight issue will take more work to address: simply inserting quotation marks around quotes is not sufficient attribution for opinionated claims, there needs to be in-text attribution of the source (in addition to the citation). This is especially the case for breathless prose like an exhibition that investigates the human form in both a tender and provocative approach, and even more so when it is cited to a non-independent source, as this quote was. signed, Rosguill talk 23:41, 30 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
