I have removed a large amount of unsourced biographical content that is a potential violation of our policies on biographies of living people. According to that policy, "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion."If you have a problem with this removal, please discuss it here before re-adding it.

The claim that this person is the "inventor" of the concept of free newspapers is not backed up by any of the referenced. His work with free newspapers is discussed but I didn't find any of them identifying him as the inventor of the practice. If this cant be properly sourced it should not be used in the article.--RadioFan (talk) 17:51, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I just happened upon this article and was struck by the same thought. I've added a {{CN}} tag for the present, but it should ultimately be deleted without proper sourcing. JakeInJoisey (talk) 12:13, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
