Talk:Guy Gentile

Drmies Ok, let's give this another try.

These BLPs are not of good quality, and part of what makes them not good is the amount of puffery--non-notable information inserted only to add an air of importance to the subject. We don't list interviews, and adding "exclusive" makes it worse. This "Community and volunteer service", that's just resume filler, and at some point one wonders--how do you get to these topics? Where do you get this esoteric primary sourcing, like the minutes of a PROTECTIVE SERVICES COMMITTEE MEETING or the two-page flyer of the graduation of some firemen?

- how and where do I get the sourcing? slightly advanced usage of google's advanced search operators, not very exciting - http://www.googleguide.com/advanced_operators_reference.html
No they are not. You are simply avoiding the issue. Those aren't reliable sources, that's issue number one. Drmies (talk) 21:07, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- "exclusive" was a mistake. Are press/media events no longer accepted as valid resources? what exactly is isn't reliable?
- what can I do to correct this? I've cited direct resources from government run sites, thinking those were excellent quality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trailmixers (talk • contribs) 23:29, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
