Roman Hruska[edit]

Hi Jenny. Thank you for adding a reference to the Hruska entry at the list of U/U/UUs. I don't believe it is a reliable enough source, however. The adherents.com source references another source (politicalgraveyard.com), which has this disclaimer: "Information on this page — and on all other pages of this site — is believed to be accurate, but is not guaranteed. Users are advised to check with other sources before relying on any information here." It is also a self-published website with no editorial oversight structure. It is unreliable by Wikipedia standards.

Your friend's characterization of Hruska as a Unitarian is also not reliable by WP standards, unless s/he has had it published in a reliable source. I'm not sure about whether the file at Harvard Divinity School would qualify. Does it explicitly identify Hruska as a Unitarian? Has such identification been published, or does it remain unpublished?

I'm not disputing that Hruska is a Unitarian. It just remains to point to a reliable published source that confirms it. Nick Graves (talk) 01:44, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for you additions to the list using quality sources! Nick Graves (talk) 11:39, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Diane Anderson[edit]

The section Notable citizens is an area to link with biographies of notable people with a connection to a suburb or town. Wikipedia has guidelines as to notability. I could not find a WP article on Diane Anderson and so deleted your edit. I do not have an opinion as to her importance. If you think she is notable, and you do start a biography please re-insert the link. Cuddy Wifter (talk) 03:09, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment on my talk page re David Bowen[edit]

WP policies on 3rd party sources and what constitutes notability have already been explained to you, at great length, by kinder people than me. In your various guises as Bagdad Jenny and Carola56 you actually acknowledge you understand what is required. By the way - there is no anonymity on the web, including Wikipedia and I must urge you to be more circumspect in what you write about living people, whether you have logged in to write or not.--Nickm57 (talk) 21:18, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
