Middle name

Latest comment: 8 months ago3 comments2 people in discussion

@David Eppstein: Regarding the removal of the Fichier des personnes décédées reference here, it was also used for providing the middle name "Serge". Is the concern with the reference about reliability or just the missing url? — MarkH₂₁^talk 22:17, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Well, it's a primary source, and we prefer secondary sources, especially for living or recently-deceased people; see WP:BLPPRIMARY. The missing url and lack of verifiability is also a problem. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:20, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sure, I figured at the time that it was a sufficiently minor claim that this primary source was okay, but no qualms about removing it either. Looking for a url now gives it under 2020 at [1]. — MarkH₂₁^talk 22:24, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
