Clan Carruthers[edit]
Let's just be perfectly clear about what Wikipedia is about. It is about writing articles with information that are reflected in the sources being quoted. I have noticed that another user, (Maybe its you ?), has been doing extensive damage to the Clan Carruthers article in which they are doing the exact opposite of what Wikipedia is about and adding lots of unsourced information. The rules of Wikipedia allow for all of this unsourced info to be removed. The only reason I haven't done it already is because they have not touched the important history section that I started. Also, the said editor, when having added a few sources seems to have resorted to the official Clan Carruthers website, when really we should be looking for proper published secondary sources.QuintusPetillius (talk) 09:26, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
Let's just be perfectly clear about what Wikipedia is about.....I think you have the wrong person here dear sir. I have read through everything and touched base on a lot of the sections but I don't believe I have added anything on the page. I myself am a Carruthers from across the pond with many years (40) of research under my belt. I know that sources are a must or it just didn't happen kind of thing. I have hard documentation on my Carruthers going back to 1714 when he emigrated to the colonies here in the USA. Now there is a group out there that is posting unsourced and fantasy information about the Carruthers coming from giants and what not, not to mention they have gone as far as making up their own Carruthers crest and Coat of arms you can find them here.... Ancient and Honorable Carruthers Clan Society Int. LLC.....so with that being said. I'm on your side. Thank you for your time.Caruthers32 (talk) 14:12, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
