Talk:Gary Johnson 2012 presidential campaign

Endorsements section references

As far as I can tell, only one thing is wrong with this article: a lack of references in the endorsements section. Every entry should have at least one reference. Unreferenced entries are subject to removal, so please, if you have a link to a source which confirms any endorsements, don't hesitate to add the reference, or (if you are inexperienced at adding full citations) at least put the link here on the talk page so more experienced editors can add it to the article.--Philpill691 (talk) 19:37, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Ahh, I just noticed a citation exists which seems to cover most of the "Endorsements as a Libertarian candidate" section. However, I still see that some names present are not mentioned in that source, so efforts should be taken to ensure that every single name is cited.--Philpill691 (talk) 16:08, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Blogs?

There's an awful preponderance of blogs used as sources in this article, I'm trying to write an essay about this election but I can't use half the citations in this article because they're mostly bloody blogs. Pro-tip, unless you're looking for a quote, blogs are shit sources for anything. 123.243.215.92 (talk) 20:30, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

FYI, Wikipedia guidelines hold that blogs can be reliable sources if: A) they are hosted by reliable sources (i.e. reputable publications, universities); and/or B) they are written by reputable journalists/pundits/researchers. Most of the weblong content cited in this article appears to meet that criteria.--JayJasper (talk) 17:19, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead.
