Sourcing
editLargely from the articles pointing to the name, also from the Find-a-grave page. knoodelhed 19:50, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
- I remove Find a Grave as a source. This site fails;
- 1)-WP:SOURCES; Articles should be based on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.
- 2)- WP:NOTRELIABLE; Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts, or with no editorial oversight.
- 3)- WP:SELFPUBLISH; Find a Grave is user edited and uses anonymous or pseudonymous editors.
- 4)- WP:SPS; This includes any website whose content is largely user-generated, including the Internet Movie Database, Cracked.com, CBDB.com, and so forth, with the exception of material on such sites that is labeled as originating from credentialed members of the sites' editorial staff, rather than users. Find a Grave is not currently specifically named as is IMBd but falls under "and so forth". Rational dictates that Find a Grave, while not listed by name in WP:SPS, certainly falls under the criteria.
- For rationale and consensus (aside from the policies and guidelines listed) please read WP:Find-A-Grave famous people#When creating articles which states, Remember that all articles must satisfy Wikipedia core policies of notability (WP:NOTABILITY), verifiability (WP:VERIFIABILITY) and reliable sources (WP:RELIABLE SOURCES). Find-A-Grave is not considered a reliable source., and further, For any articles you create because of this project, you can add the entry's Find-A-Grave link to the External links sections of the article.. While this deals with articles being created it also certainly applies to any articles already created. Otr500 (talk) 00:38, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
Rubbed out
editI rewrote to this:
- "and Siegel bodyguard Mickey Cohen, neither of whom the boss of the "Mickey Mouse Mob" was able to stop. (Cohen survived numerous attempts by Dragna's mob to kill him.)"
The "made the mistake of trying to take a piece of his action" was ridiculous. The "Mickey Mouse Mob" was a well-known joke, & Siegel, along with local Mob workers, paid Dragna no attention. I rely on Sifakis' Mafia Encyclopedia & an "A&E" doc on the subject, which substantially agree. Trekphiler 17:30, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
