Per Talk:Marin Temperica, this was actually based on bad sourcing. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 20:56, 22 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Joy Will you please be so kind to present diff of edits at Talk:Marin Temperica for your claim that this dyk "was actually based on bad sourcing"?--Antidiskriminator (talk) 21:37, 22 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
Here is a diff which added additional sources for dyk assertion.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 21:44, 22 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
(Pasting from the other Talk page) Apparently an extraordinary statement was referenced to an Ivo Vukcevich source, which is not only not WP:EXTRAORDINARY, it's not even WP:RS, because of his countless biased diatribes against nationalities other than his own (he's so biased that he even put some of that in book titles, so it's not only non-encyclopedic, it's Vojislav Šešelj territory - a borderline WP:ARBMAC violation in and of itself). I have recently edited the article to remove the invalid source and the contentious claim, and the remaining issue is whether we still do something with the DYK entry (and what). --Joy [shallot] (talk) 11:07, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
Ah, so there are other sources? I'm not disputing this offhand because I don't know these authors, but it should preferably be verified by people unconnected to the Vukcevich edits. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 11:14, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
I was not careful enough with Vuckevich's works which are indeed not WP:RS.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 13:24, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
