Revision as of 19:10, April 24, 2007
, 19:10, April 24, 2007→I think if you look at Rob's protection or torture you'll see what he means: typo
:So that specific reference may not stand. One reason it was done is because there is some valuable information in the Ross & Espisito ''ABC News'' article, which I did not wish to remove completely (as was done with most of the uk cites). I'm still reviewing all the other abuses that occured in this series of articles, trying to salvage what useful and valuable information and cites are there, and do rewrites where if I can. But most importantly we need a guideline on anonymous sources -- this junk was in for a month after the vandal had been blocked. A guideline would have helped catch it much sooner, and some of the cites removed could still be saved. [[User:RobS|RobS]] 14:49, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

Fine, but I wasn't working on the guideline. [[User:Flippin|Flippin]] 14:51, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

:The Eminem reference, while factual, while probably be changed. I'm trying to find a way to salvage the Ross & Espisito material in conjunction with other articles. Worse case scenario is we throw it out completely, which I don't think is a good idea. I just have to make sure all the other bogus garbage is removed first, rewrite where possible, then find a way to properly cite the Ross & Espisito material, and perhaps articulate a guideline on anonymous sources out of this experience. So please be patient. [[User:RobS|RobS]] 14:58, 24 April 2007 (EDT)
