message: I just started a new Quotes section.  Please add to it, but only with properly reference quotes.  Trasel (talk) 03:43, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quotes section 

message: The references section is comprised almost entirely of links to the subject's own website. Is this normally acceptable under Wikipedia's reference policy? I'm still learning the ropes. Xmkrx (talk) 19:30, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Generally, third-party sources are used as references only. If undisputed facts, such as president of a corporation, second party or first party sources are used. Geraldshields11 (talk) 21:42, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lots of self-reference 

message: This is not written from an objective point of view. It's a great advertisement for him, but it's not hitting him objectively. The fact that he endorsed Ron Paul is not really pertinent, because he is not a high-profile public character.
In addition, is this guy even deserving of his own wiki page? I see nothing that makes him notable other than being related to Cleon Skousen.
what is the basis for claiming that he is a "political scientist" by training?  the article should cite credentials, e.g., a Ph.D., or publications in peer reviewed political science journals.  otherwise, this just repeats what he claims on his website.  chris  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.34.61.196 (talk) 09:25, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
