On references
[edit]I'm working to improve this article, which isn't adequately sourced at all. Note that, if one searches, there are at least two other people known as Gary Stretch: this guy is a rubber-faced freakshow performer, and this guy who was convicted of murder. Neither is the boxer/model/actor. -- 87.112.70.245 (talk) 13:00, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
www.squidoo.com/britishchampions-lightmiddleweight#module24399842 has a reasonable summary of Stetch's boxing career, without all the "pretty boy ... iron chinned" nonsense the Wikipedia article has. I don't claim that squidoo is a reliable source, but surely we can find proper sources for this material. I'll keep looking. -- 87.112.70.245 (talk) 13:12, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
Copyvio (gone now, I think)
[edit]I've removed some really bad tabloidy language; only once that was done did I read his IMDb bio [1] which looks like it's the source. I think I've removed everything that came from that. 87.112.70.245 (talk) 17:06, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
Unsourced accounts
[edit]This message appeared on my own talk page:
If (or so far as) "your" in "your article" is singular: I haven't edited the article in six years and indeed had forgotten who Stretch was.
But that's a minor point. What matters is the accuracy of the article. Thank you for not altering it to accord with your interpretation of a video, and for the moderation of your conclusion, "I don't think the existing description of the fight is accurate." I know next to nothing about boxing and can't comment. But I do notice that all of
within the article as it exists now is completely unsourced. This is completely inadequate. I have asked about this elsewhere; I hope that somebody knowledgable can help, of course providing reliable sources for all the material that survives the revision process. -- Hoary (talk) 23:43, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
