Revision as of 19:03, June 27, 2008
Sourced Material?
LT, the things you put back into the article are not sourced. The entirety of the "sourcing" is a single webpage with absolutely no sourcing. Instead, the only link THAT "source" provides is a link to a non-existent webpage. So while Franken's quote is sourced, any judgment on the truthfulness of that quote is unsourced.
Unless more "sources" can be brought forward, I plan on stripping this article down to the absolute basics--title of book, author, and publishing date. Let's stick to the truth and not, according to CP Commandment #5, "personal opinion on an encyclopedic entry." Oh, and the other site used as a "source" would fall under this caveat of the CP Commandments, "Sources should be authoritative works, not merely published opinions by others." --Jareddr 13:55, 27 June 2008 (EDT)
