Meltzer's Graduation[edit]

What did he graduate in? I couldn't find this information anywhere. What faculty (or school or college)? What was his thesis title? E.g. Tolkien graduated in English language and philology, Einstein in physics, but where they graduated does not really matter. --Abacos (talk) 09:28, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I do not have an answer but ponder this: With people of his ethnic background, does it really matter? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.135.95.181 (talk) 14:49, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What is his ethnic background? It’s not cited in the article (or history). Ditto “where born”. MBG02 (talk) 18:26, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First author web site?[edit]

There have been several recent edits to this article relating to the fact that Meltzer had a web site in 1996. Three relevant sources have been mentioned:

I don't think there's any reasonable doubt that Meltzer's was one of the earliest author web sites. However, the NY Times article doesn't say that it was definitely the first, only that such a thing is "arguable". Because this isn't clear-cut, and because it's generated some controversy, I've just deleted the sentence "The website has been referred to as the first ever author website" from the article. I think this is required by WP:BLPREMOVE.

The question remains whether it's appropriate for this article to address the question of who had the first author web site. My personal feeling is that such issues are peripheral to the main topic, and so if they're discussed at all they should be in either a separate section or a footnote. My previous edit, citing the second source above in a footnote, was reverted with an edit summary asserting that inline citations are required. I'm puzzled by this: the citation was right next to the fact it supported, which is what "inline" means.

Can anyone think of a better way of addressing this issue? Jowa fan (talk) 02:53, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry if I used the term inline citation incorrectly. Nightscream (talk) 07:26, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody should add something about The Nazi Conspiracy[edit]
