Talk:Manuel J. Fernandez

message: The article is grossly favourable to the subject. It is written colloquially, full of rethorical expressions, needs citations everywhere, presents as fact the highly speculative and completely unverifiable claim that the pilot was a deep undercover agent.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fleetpeter (talk • contribs) 14:45, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lack of neutrality 

message: The article mentions his wife Jill twice.
He married a stewardess named Jean Marie Eberman in 1953.
Is Jill a nickname for Jean or did he divorce and remarry?
Did he have any children?

thread_title:  What was his personal life like? 

message: The photos are a great addition to the article.
I have tagged most of them with copyright tags, but am unclear on exactly what permission the Fernandez family is giving.
The photo of Fernandez in his flight suit is perfect for the first photo in the article. I tagged it as a possible copyvio because it is from Time mag. Are there any family photos from that period that could be used instead? The Bendix photo would be an excellent substitute.
The captions do not clearly identify individuals when there are several in the photo.
The caption beneath the newspaper photo itself is not legible. A complete transcription, possibly as a footnote, would be helpful.
The crash site photo needs more annotation so readers can tell what they are looking at. Is the photo showing wreckage or just weeds?
The bold face in the captions is distracting, especially when wikified
Since this is a bio of Fernandez, photos of Davis and Hemming are unnecessary, because they do not also show Fernandez.

thread_title:  comments on photos 

message: :Why in the world are there two articles for the same man?  Apparently the other article is older and dates back to July, and this article dates to August although this one has a lot more photographs and information.  Why not re-direct the other page to this one?  Just makes sense to me.

replies: text: Thanks for your comment. I completely agree. I have already restored the lead sentence twice now after editors removed it without explanation. While a lead section is not mandatory, this article is certainly long enough to need one.  Indeed, it could be expanded from a sentence to a paragraph. --Jtir 22:08, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  A brief introduction would be useful 

message: These look like excellent sources, but they are not independently verifiable.
WP requires verifiability.
Transcripts or audio available online would be ideal.
Citation in a published book would be totally acceptable.
Another problem is that no dates or locations are given.
Note that WP does not have "authors".

message: I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
::This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now.

message: Following up on the first comment about neutrality.
The text refers to "Pete" 6 or 7 times.  Serious NPOV lapse.  Also, there should be a follow-up to the rumor that he was killed while working undercover--whether true or false.  If he was working for the government, he deserves recognition.  (I'm having trouble with Wikipedia--cannot log on and sometimes cannot make text changes.)
