Reliable sourcing
Hi As user generated and self-published sources, celebrity wikis wouldn't be acceptable as reliable sources, particular for a biography of a living person. These exist mostly for SEO and ad revenue, with no meaningful fact checking or editorial review. Many of them copy from each other (or Wikipedia). For example, see the discussion at Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 258. I've left the claims for now, but any ones that can't be attributed to a truly reliable source should be removed.

 * Thanks for providing the link to the notice board. I had wondered, but since InformationCradle is not a wiki (it is not user generated, but has editorial staff), has no advertising, and is also not on the WP:RSPSOURCES list, it appeared to be okay to use. It is interesting to note that is does include some original research--content that is only available from public records that are not allowable sources for Wikipedia. If InfomationCrable is considered an unreliable source because of copyright violations, it should be added to the RSPSources list, right? In any event, I didn't write this content, but was trying to find the needed sources. I found some reliable sources, so there is that...Rublamb (talk) 17:25, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
 * @Politanvm, I cited new sources (and new info in some cases) and deleted the rest. When I found a marriage announcement in the NYT, it ends up the info on wife and parents was for another person with the same name. That is what I get for being lazy and using InformationCrade. Thanks again for the heads up. Rublamb (talk) 19:19, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks @Rublamb - the new sources look better at first glance. There are so many similar sites that are unambiguously unreliable blogs or wikis that posting every one to RSP would be overkill. When I tried to list Prabook at RSP, it was basically shut down as being unnecessary (yet people keep on using it). These sites basically just copy and paste or scrape information and repost it with egregious SEO. It's almost an entire industry. The pages are covered with ads, including popover ads whenever you click on a link on the page, so they're not showing for you, you must have a great ad blocker. Anyway, thanks for understanding and for pulling in more reliable sources! Best, Politanvm talk 22:12, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
