[edit]

I removed this reference: http://dlf.tv/2010/ali-stephens. It does not appear to be a reliable, source for use in a BLP.   Will Beback  talk  23:26, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see it was added back, three times. Does DLF.TV have a reputation for reliability and fact checking? How does it qualify as a reliable source?   Will Beback  talk  06:33, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Did not see this note until just now. But since we are here now. What is it specifically that makes you feel this is not a reliable source? Is there some text supported by this source that you feel is incorrect or contentious?--KbobTalk 15:56, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The burden is on the person adding the material. Per WP:V, Articles should be based on reliable, third-party (independent), published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy;... I think we could use the DLF as a self-published source for David Lynch, but I don't see how it would qualify for Stephens.   Will Beback  talk  18:42, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If there's no more discussion I'll remove the link again.   Will Beback  talk  19:33, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The DLF.TV site is an entertainment web site and it has a legitimate article on the subject. This article is based on reliable, third-party sources and the DLF.TV source is a secondary source that is there to supplement other sources. Why are you so opposed to this source? --KbobTalk 21:28, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Do you think that DLF has "a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy"? Is there any evidence of that? This is a BLP, so we should be extra careful with sources.   Will Beback  talk  21:53, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I agree we need to be careful with BLP's. It seems to me that the dlf.tv source is used sparingly in the article, is supported by other sources and is not associated with any text that is controversial. So to me it seems OK. Is there a particular part of the text that is associated with this source that you have a concern with? Let me know, so we can discuss and amend as needed.--KbobTalk 18:18, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see you giving any support for DLF being a reliable source for a BLP. Let me post a thread at WP:RSN to solicit input from uninvolved editors.   Will Beback  talk  19:10, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't see you giving any valid reasons for its removal, so I agree RSN is a good idea.--KbobTalk 17:58, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
