Talk:Derek Hopwood

message: If you look on the St. Antony's College site, it is very clear that Hopwood is still an emeritus fellow there (as of August 2006).  Whether he is a Reader there, I'm not sure, but that claim seems of little importance - if he isnt' now, he certainly was in the past. I also added a list of publications, not necessarily complete. --Brianyoumans 23:58, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

They've done articles on actual Natives and made serious mistakes, and they've done articles that feature white people and never once checked their claims of tribal citizenship. There are bios they've done on African-Americans where they've gone into print with features on people with the wrong name. Sometimes I think they have fired all their fact checkers. And I don't think they've ever hired any Native ones. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 03:51, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Orlan

message: This seems to be a classic case of circular sourcing:
Please compare this version of Orlan’s biography from the French WP to the uncredited piece on the France Inter website recently introduced as a source in both her French and English WP BLP. They are virtually identical.
The unsourced statement "Son vrai prénom est Paulette Du Brouet" ("her real first name is …") was first inserted into the French WP article on January 21, 2012 by an IP account with exactly this one contribution to its name and reinserted several times since by User:TwoWings, an account mostly active on Commons.
A google search for "Paulette Du Brouet" yields a total of 19 hits, most of them from Wiki mirror sites.
It is therefore highly likely that France Inter copied the January 2012 version of the French WP article, given that they don’t list an author on their site and are replicating the same mistake as that version of the French WP BLP ("son vrai prénom"). I would expect a reliable source with editorial oversight to be able to tell the difference between a first name and a full name. However, if the France Inter piece came first, the "Biographie" section of the French WP article would constitute a 100 percent copyvio. DracoE 05:08, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removal of unconfirmed "birth name"

message: Some IP found this artist's true birth name, and I've thus tracked down some reliable sources "Formerly Mireille Porte (before she changed her name), Orlan is a Professor at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Dijon. She is a multimedia artist using video, performance, digital images and sculpture." and added them to the article (Draco, you're right the sources here are utter piffle, when they're not lacking!)  I was going to put this one in, as it discussed why she doesn't go by her name: 
Perhaps the most bizarre case of a surgery addict is that of a 46-year-old French performance artist named Orlan....  "What I want is a complete transformation—to have the old image erased. At the end of all the operations, I'm going to get a new name and change my identity completely," says Orlan, whose original name was Mireille Porte.
But since it is self-published by iUniverse, I decided to keep it off.  I'm sure you'd agree. (Perhaps I can track down the original source?)  I hope this helps the article. TuckerResearch (talk) 05:56, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: 2002 Redskins Game

message: I do not doubt that Pace is highly athletic, and I will not even contest the fact that he is the most athletic offensive lineman in the NFL, even though that's a very subjective statement. 
However, at 6'7, 325 pounds, it is simply impossible for him to run a 4.6 in the 40-yard dash. It's very common for highly athletic tight ends and defensive ends, all of whom would be 50+ pounds lighter to be unable to run a 4.6 in the 40-yard dash. For example, Mercedes Lewis, the 1st round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars out of UCLA, only ran a 4.79. 
I have deleted this in the Wiki article, because a claim that incredible simply must be verified with an external citation to a credible authority. 
I will leave the other statements in doubt alone for the time being, but they need verification as well. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Holle012 (talk • contribs).

Talk:Óscar Mendoza Azurdia

message: This page tends to get heated quickly around the "is he living/dead" issue, so let's preempt that with some civil discussion on the talk page. I see that his year of death was added based on the obituary of what is presumably his son, although there's no direct proof that the Oscar A. Mendoza mentioned who died in 1995 is the same person as the subject of this article. Having said that, it is noted that the subject of the obituary was also the son of Berta Rosales Mendoza. Spanish Wikipedia lists Berta Rosales Mendoza as being Óscar's wife, so if we can get a reliable source that this was indeed the case, then the obituary should be sufficient to confirm a year of death of 1995 for Óscar. Personally I'm convinced, but the threshold of WP:V is just a little higher. Canadian Paul 13:35, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.
