Talk:Barry Minkow

message: I came across this page today and having read it have no idea what it is about.  Its a really weak article Cxk271 (talk) 16:08, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Unclear, uninformative and unhelpful article

message: I'm taking out the term "allegedly" in the introductory section.  There's no credible allegations referenced or sourced, and until they are, Mr. Minkow deserves to have the benefit of the doubt. . .  especially when he is under the oversight of a church board of directors or equivalant.  These folks I'm sure know of Minkow's past, and if there was a problem with his ethical behavior - especially as it relates to financial fraud - he'd be out of there in a heartbeat.  Let's cite sources before we start doubting everyone and anyone who has an article on Wikipedia.  Thanks.  --avnative 16:12, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
: Minkow's congregation and Elder Board are very aware of his past. It is almost a weekly part of his sermons and each visitor that has returned for the third time is invited to his home and given a copy of his first book. --Aaronkaiser 17:45, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This page needs some discussion (at least a link) to Usana. jhawkinson (talk) 05:30, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been updating several direct selling companies, and ran across Minkow and this article on a few of them, Usana included.  The recent press on Lennar and him going back to jail is certainly a strong case for that addition to the article.  But, I also think there has been enough press on Usana for a section on that as well.  There has been some journalism over at Deep Capture on Minkow's participation in the Usana report.  Deep Capture appears to pass the WP:RS test upon reading their About page here.   Leef5  TALK | CONTRIBS 18:58, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Someone have mashed a bio on Pastor Cooper into this article. It doesn't belong in an article on Minkow so I've removed it from two sections! 87.54.40.66 (talk) 12:30, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: I removed the YouTube interview external link. Per WP:YT it is rare for a YouTube link to abide by the external links guidelines and each should be examined on a case-by-case basis. I consider that unnecessary because this is a BLP. momoricks (make my day) 05:39, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
