Talk:Lake Winnipesaukee mystery stone

message: CNN article on the Mystery Stone
I don't know how to cite sources, but I think of CNN as a very trustable source. I was checkin that statement on google (67 pages as a result) and all of them make the same statement. --Arturo #7 20:40, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Here is the WP citing how-to.  It's not a matter of CNN being trustworthy - it's a matter of patently lifting their material.  It's fine if CNN's information is used, we just can't copy and paste - that's plagiarism.  And speaking of plagiarism, I'm not sure the images from the New Hampshire Historical Society are public domain, either.  Could we do a check on those?--TurabianNights 20:42, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think we could. We should ask the NHMH or whatever if it is public domain! =P --Arturo #7 00:48, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Okay, I've emailed them.  We'll see.--TurabianNights 14:45, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I wonder if we could find a source discussing the symbols' similarities to Masons' marks.  The parallels are striking.--TurabianNights 15:30, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't like the tipi in particular. Looks like lifted out of a kids' book. Quite different from tipis in 19th century Native art. Dysmorodrepanis 21:52, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: My personal belief is that the stone, like many mystery stones, is a fat hoax.  It certainly is odd, you might say, that so many stereotypical American Indian symbols are on the stone.  Particularly since tipis were certainly not used in the Northeast.--TN | ! 09:03, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just a reminder that Talk pages are for discussing the *article*, not just the topic. Otherwise wikipedia would drown in a sea of gabble. - DavidWBrooks 12:42, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's obviously a hoax, and that's relevant to this article, which is an embarrassment, citing a letter from an "unknown author" talking about mythical "thunderstones". That's about as far from a "reliable source" as you can get. -- Jibal (talk) 06:47, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Find a source that says this and it could go in the introduction. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 15:36, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
