Talk:Black Donnellys

message: So Charles Hutchinson was a prosecutor in the Donnelly case in 1881, yet the Charles Hutchison that the link leads to was born in 1879. A true child prodigy! NevarMaor (talk) 15:42, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

message: In my opinion, the material that was added today, although no doubt thoughtfully put together; is unsuitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia in its present form. As was indicated in the edit summaries of the editor when they added it, the material appears to consist solely of original research derived by them from primary documents, which sadly enough in this case, is in violation of Wikipedia policy. Please see WP:PSTS. I was going to revert the material in its entirety, but decided to instead place the "original research" template at the top of the article for now; in order to encourage reactions from other editors. I would perfectly understand the reasoning, if another editor simply chose to remove the material instead. This is a good example of why well meaning contributors should carefully read a bit about policy before deciding to devote a lot of time to preparing materials for Wikipedia. WP:OR is a key piece of information.  cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 20:55, 21 January 2010 (UTC)

message: This article is thoroughly worthless and reads like a 3rd grader's historical fiction assignment.  Can we just delete it and start over? Telanis (talk) 17:48, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The article needs a radical rewrite to condense it, make it coherent and relate all of it to sources. I've been told that the "blow it up" rationale for deletion is not widely accepted: an article on a "notable" topic that isn't a libel or copyvio does not need to be deleted even if it does need to be totally reconstructed. A rewrite of this one would need access to the books & pamphlets cited, and possibly others, and would need attention by editors in that part of Canada, but I'm willing to help with organising the information. To start with I've eliminated the journalistic lead: Noyster  (talk),  07:56, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: As of today, this article is a little over 76kB, which isn't completely unreadable (per WP:SIZE) but it's getting close, and almost certainly will be over if/when proper sources are added to the article. I propose splitting the Timeline section in its entirety to a separate article, such as Timeline of the Black Donnellys. List of timelines shows some examples of the style I'd like to follow, especially under #Biographical timelines, and there are some more examples in :Category:Personal timelines. Any objection, or thoughts on a better name? Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 22:00, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
