Talk:Gef

message: I have added some references to the article, though I’m not sure if they are adequate to remove the sources tag, so I have left it in place. I take issue with a few bits of the article, particularly “no one other than the Irvings ever heard Gef speak “ – which is not the case, quite a few people heard “Gef’s voice.” Also “poltergeists are believed to be pathological liars,” and “rare, cases of animals such as dogs and cats allegedly having the ability to speak,” - love to see some sources on those two.--Tascio 21:40, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed the tag (having just come across this article) as the refs you've added seem good enough to me. You might like to have a look at Wikipedia:Footnotes, which tells you how to create automatic linking notes. --Blisco 23:14, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you, I have just changed the article over to the referencing method you suggested, it should certainly make adding further references a lot easier.--Tascio 11:09, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Anyone know where the house is? It might be an interesting addition to the article. A photo of it, too. --208.65.188.23 (talk) 04:02, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I doubt very much that there is any connection between Gef and Lovecraft's story "Dreams in the Witch House."  Lovecraft wrote "Dreams" in 1932.  He never visited the Isle of Man, or anywhere in the British Isles.  Would an American writer writing in 1932 have had access to information about Gef?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.208.244.20 (talk) 14:42, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

message: Is there any basis for asserting it is 'Jeff'? The Irvings always spelt it GEF, NOT Jeff or Geof(frey) - I had always assumed it was pronounced with a hard 'g' as in 'go'. This would only be resolved if there was a recording of an Irving or perhaps Price actually enunciating the word.

message: Hi, I added a link to a podcast about Gef but it was reverted. I'm not sure if it was accidentally removed because of the vandalism that followed (by another editor) or if the link doesn't belong on this page. I listened to the podcast and thought it added a lot of information that would be useful to someone who is interested in Gef. https://www.constantpodcast.com/episodes/gef
If it is relevant, feel free to add it back in.
