Larry - you really need to learn how to read things as a whole, and figure out what they actually mean. Start with the simplest of them - the Elsberry issue.   Re-read what I said - in context. And then read the sections on sourcing. 
 
I read all of that stuff.    I am answering your arguments but you are just ducking mine.    You are making me unnecessarily repeat myself because you are not responding to my arguments.
 
I'll go over this again one more time.    There is a general Wikipedia rule against using personal blogs as sources.     There are two exceptions to this rule:  (1) when the blogger is writing about him/herself  and (2) when the blogger is a news media professional who is writing on a blog that is under the "full editorial control" of a news media outlet (but then the blog is not really a "personal" blog).     The first exception obviously does not apply here.    As for the second exception,   Elsberry's blog is not even affiliated with  let alone controlled by  a news media outlet.    The rule has no exception for the personal blogs of "notable" people.  

.. . if you still don't understand what's going on, then I really think you need to move on. 
 
You are the one who doesn't understand what is going on and you are the one who needs to move on.
