Talk:The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties

Claremont Institute

Re this edit[1], I appreciate the additional information added to fill out the stub article, but curious about the rationale for removing the Claremont Institute as a source. It's affiliated, yes, in the sense that Caldwell is a senior fellow at the Claremont Institute. But a book review, much like an op-ed or an editorial, is reliable for statements about the opinions of their authors. Hence, a review by Helen Andrews published in the Claremont Review of Books is reliable as a source for the opinions of Helen Andrews. Rather than removing, I'm going to suggest just qualifying and noting the affiliation. Any objections? TheBlueCanoe 00:20, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

The Claremont Institute review isn't notable in and of itself, it would need to be referenced by a WP:RS to be included. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:27, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Um, no. Reviews of books are notable on pages about those books.TheBlueCanoe 00:37, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Reviews of books from reliable sources are notable on pages about those books, in this context Claremont isn’t a reliable source. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 00:55, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

It is a reliable source for the views of Helen Andrews. TheBlueCanoe 23:21, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

It is included in the more general Wikipedia article on Caldwell. 2600:6C67:1C00:5F7E:A463:83A:3A6F:E18F (talk) 17:45, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
