But not [what] the article claims, based on an entirely inappropriate cite. Qwirkle (talk) 16:06, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Source looks reliable, Qwirkle why do you think it isn't? It's from a biography about the band, which includes detail on the house related to the band. And is not a self-published source. But I'll remove that first claim if it pleases you. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:04, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- And tagging a whole article for factual accuracy because you disagree with one thing is petty. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:05, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Given the level of sourcing, what makes you think this is the only thing wrong with it? Qwirkle (talk) 23:24, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
- Given that an article of 2,300 characters has 13 sources, I think sourcing is fine. In the case of actual problems, easiest way is to fix it (rather than complain referencing a source in another article, instead of just adding that source here). Joseph2302 (talk) 14:44, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- Obviously, you think the sourcing was “fine”, and you appear to believe that simply counting words and cites provides a useful clue about this.
That’s the problem.
A biography of a current figures might be a good source of folk beliefs about history, but it isn’t particularly likely to be a reliable -in the ordinary sense, not newspeak wikiblather - source about actual history…and, surprise, surprise, in this case it wasn’t.

Etymology claimed edit
This is but one of at least 3 theories; I suspect the Lyngyver etymology may be the correct one. Qwirkle (talk) 05:08, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Fiennes did not, probably, actually kill Busbrig edit
Dacre was convicted of murder because he led a criminal enterprise -poaching- that resulted in a death, not because he did the actual stabbing. Qwirkle (talk) 05:17, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
