Clean up - Sept 2010

I have attempted to fix this page - have sorted Bradbury's achievements into categories and remove all the unsourced claims. They will need refs as per BLP According to the discussion on the recent PROD the subject of this article wants to keep "his" page. If this is the case I suggest you read the guidelines on Autobiography first. NZ forever (talk) 06:21, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What evidence do we have that the photographer has given permission to use this photo, or is the uploader? Richard001 (talk) 07:01, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reliability

If I quote the words of bomber himself why are they viewed as unreliable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.92.155.150 (talk) 04:54, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It depends where you source them from. If you reference a newspaper article, that's fine. But self-published blogs are unreliable, sorry. Adabow (talk · contribs) 05:00, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why does a minor blogger need a wikipedia page? His claim to fame seems to be he used to edit a university magazine. Surely this misses the threshold? Just because the subject wants a page does not mean he gets one does it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.93.187.219 (talk) 08:13, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Tagged for lack of reliable sources

I have tagged this biographical article for its complete lack of any reliable sources. Currently, the only reference provided in the article is a single dead link.

Justification for this tag should be self-evident to anyone who bothers to look at the article, so I hope (probably in vain) that the usual turf-warring suspects don't rush in to remove this tag without first assessing why it has been attached. Deterence ^Talk 08:36, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You appear to have missed that I repaired the link.-gadfium 08:56, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That single link has been fixed. However, the referenced quote is inaccurate, (that said, the difference is somewhat negligible). Deterence ^Talk 01:01, 21 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I should probably point out...

I made an edit to this page, partly in jest, which has lead back to another person who uses this moniker for serious business. I am not NZ blogger, Ace McWicked and it was out of some crossed channels that we wound up with the same handle. As he got some static about this, from Bomber and others, I'll be requested a name change. Ace McWicked (talk) 10:05, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
