This page has been up for several years put up by others.

I found it asked for more info and added some. I or others may have added "offensive" material and need help to know what the problems might be. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Magicusb (talkcontribs) 15:38, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Have recently added reference and quotes to most of the statements about this person from known sources. Am researching for more.Magicusb (talk) 15:57, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Almost everythng I have added is either from books or newspaper articles in established publications. Not sure where the problems lie. I can also contact the person directly. Need to know hat EXACTLY is the "offending" materal and I can remove it or edit it. Magicusb (talk) 15:57, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FindTarget reference should not be used

[edit]

Findtarget is used as a reference. Findtarget is an copyright violator which uses Wikipedia content unattributed. Therefore this article basically is using the wikipedia article about Harry Houdini as a reference for one about Dorothy Dietrich. not a good thing.

Here she is on a 1979 broadcast. I think we can safely establish that she is past 10 years of age: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aScd__8n3Xg Shuaksky (talk) 02:23, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Someone should rewrite the bullet-catching section

[edit]

Hello.
I just removed most of the section covering the bullet-catching trick. Nearly the entire section was a blatant copyvio. Simply including a reference to one's source doesn't allow them to copy & paste as much text as they like without indicating that it's a quote.
I've simply modified the section to remove the copyvio. If anyone's interested, they should rewrite it (legally) to include anything of significance, if necessary. 209.90.133.113 (talk) 05:19, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Too many images

[edit]

the wall of images down the right is a bit long. At my resolution (1920x1200) there is a ton of white space before you get to the templates, at least 4 or 5 images need to be removed.--Crossmr (talk) 07:20, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
