Sourcing problems

edit

It's been said before, but we absolutely cannot use Jay Robert Nash as the sole source for an article. Any statement which can only be sourced to Nash must be removed immediately. I'm giving you-who-watchlist-this-article a head's-up rather than deleting it outright, but get things done fast - like, 'next couple of days' fast. Got it? DS (talk) 02:38, 13 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

I note this article has not been deleted, as hinted at above, and the page history shows no evidence of being proposed for deletion by DS in May 2011. Given the article's lack of specific citations for various statements, Nash's book probably has the status of Further reading as the book is not identified as a source any statements made in the article. The Manual of Style for an article's structure indicates that the appropriate heading for citations is "Notes and references" but, since the article doesn't have any citations, it is empty! Consequently, I have added some clean-up tags to highlight the fact that this article needs citations and that Nash is considered an unsuitable source. However, the article indicates there are a couple of other sources, so I have added these too. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 10:02, 12 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
