Talk:90 Day Jane

Page Expansion
@Benmite, I plan on expanding this page substantially and taking it to GA should there be enough content out there. As page creator, you may have a better grasp of the sources out there. Any idea on the reliability of museum of hoaxes source? I can see this source is used fairly widely elsewhere wikipedia, even if its a bit unorthodox.

Just pinging you as page creator to see if you want to help. Etrius ( Us) 17:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I've actually been a bit concerned about this page, since I worry that it suffers from recentism. That might sound strange since I created it, but I only barely noticed upon creating the page that 5 out of the 7 sources I used are from the same two days, and only one of the sources isn't from 2008. Even that one, from 2009, heavily relies on an article from what I believe is that same two-day timespan. Even the Museum of Hoaxes article is from a day before those articles all came out. (Also, I would caution against using the Museum of Hoaxes, since, from what I can tell, it's a self-published blog.) Have you found any additional sources outside of that? If not, I might propose a merge into a different article, though I'm not sure which one yet. ben ǝʇᴉɯ  19:55, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @Benmite I see what you mean. There may be a justification under WP:BLOG for Museum of hoaxes but it's not a hill I feel like dying on. I'll make a concerted effort to expand the page, I'll ping you when I'm done. If I can't find enough, then maybe merging the page into Christine Chubbuck would be appropriate.

 * @Benmite I made an effort to find something more substantial but nothing reliable comes up. I think that a merge is going to be the best option, there are only 4-5 sources that are somewhat reliable. The Buzzfeed citation is bare-bones with minimal information, the Gawker citation isn't particularly good, and I'm unsure about the WFMU citation. There's one google book that cites this event at any length. I can expand the page but I feel that the effort would be largely futile. I did go ahead and de-orphan the page. Maybe List of hoaxes can host a mention of 90 Day Jane, I just don't see the page as viable per WP:NOTE. Etrius ( Us) 02:13, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
