Removed[edit]

Removed "In a 1995 feature The Tucson Weekly said that "Dean could be delusional, a monomaniac who sincerely believes his stories are true. He could be flat-out lying, spreading these tales for a free ticket to travel the world....or he could be telling the truth" ^[1]"

personal opinions on an individuals psychological "make-up" - without supporting evidence and qualification in psychology from the writer of a small local newspaper - do not seem appropriate in a encyclopedic entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Really2008 (talk • contribs) 03:05, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Career after military[edit]

Edited a typo in the Career After Military section correcting the name of CUFOS from "for the UFO Studies" to "Center for UFO Studies." Also added wikilink to the CUFOS article. Runwolf (talk) 20:16, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Clean-up[edit]

Cleaned up some of the grammar in this article. There is a point where the number of times the word "claims" in this article became painful to read. The7thdr (talk) 01:00, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE) material[edit]

The url for the citation inserted in this edit appears at first glance to be hosted by the SHAPE server, but is not accessible by menu and not discoverable by search. Which could mean it's a SHAPE staff private document. Or it could be a spoof url by an outsider. Hard to say. In any case, it's a WP:PRIMARY source, and were it shown to be legit, the most we could say in the article is "a document published on SHAPE servers claims X, Y and Z...". Also, I have no doubt forgery and fabrication is common in ufology, but we'd need very solid sourcing to publish allegations of forgery in a bio to avoid WP:BLP issues. - LuckyLouie (talk) 14:24, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
