Fiction
[edit]Reading through this article it seems to present the various alleged events Diogenes' life as if they really happened. While we should certainly include them all in some format, perhaps we could cite the IEP article and other reliable sources to rephrase things so that it doesn't look like absurd tall tales from the Hellenistic era are being reported as historical facts? A lot of it is probably more appropriate for the legacy section. - car chasm (talk) 06:41, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- We can obviously rework the aticle and Carchasm has made some edits themself. But we need specifics as generalities are too vague to be useful. What we don't need is a banner tag for the issue as the lead makes it clear in various ways that information about the subject is anecdotal, fragmentary and uncertain.
