Talk:Bill Tilman

message: I like this article until the last two paragraphs. They go pretty far away from NPOV. At best, statements like these need to be explicitly sourced. Most of it should probably just go. Comments? -- Spireguy 04:20, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It sounds like an obituary, and is not encylopaedic, is it? It may, however, be true. His biographies do point out these characteristics, so perhaps it could be reworded to describe his personality as seen by his fellow travellers? docboat 09:30, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If his biographies do include material like this, then it could be reworded as you suggest, if it is explicitly sourced. Right now it is not, so I'm going to move it to this talk page: -- Spireguy 16:20, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Misleading box? 

message: Any comments from others on the links recently added by User:Daveglen? There are self-promotion and conflict of interest issues, but I didn't want to just revert. Anyone? -- Spireguy (talk) 03:11, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, self-promotion indeed. But I wonder if they stand as a reference on their own rights? I would not delete yet, but I will make a comment on this guy's page. docboat (talk) 04:21, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Recent links? 

message: Both Glenn's and Shipton's books should not appear within the subject's Bibliography. This is reserved for books he wrote himself. Eric Shipton's books most surely figure as a reference to Tillman's life and should appear there. Glenn's is the third biography written, and does not appear in print: it is an ebook, and should be clearly indicated as such. I note that he has since surrendered his Wikipedia identity. I thank him for the photographic contribution prior to his demise.
The collected works are just that: collections. From a historical and biographical viewpoint the books he wrote deserve to be listed chronologically, then mention should be made of the subsequent issue of the collected works' publications. I shall make these changes shortly if I hear nothing to contradict me. Pip Pip!
