Talk:Anna Genovese

Deletion
I'm still working on fleshing out the page; there's a ton of info and Genovese was very much a notable figure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caterpillar84 (talk • contribs) 19:46, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Show the sources at the AfD. There are nothin but unreliable sources, with the exception of one, but that source hardly proves she is notable beyond the shadow of her husband. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 20:01, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

I'm working on it. =) She was very accomplished and a noted member of the mob, running full operations while her husband was in exile in Europe for years. Her role in the LGBTQ+ community in New York was huge. And her public testimony against her mob boss husband was unprecedented, drawing nation attention repeatedly. As for the AfD you speak of...I'm not familiar with the term. Can you clarify? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caterpillar84 (talk • contribs) 22:24, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
 * It’s the link in the red box on the top of the article. Just list your sources here if you have them to prove the notability for time’s sake - you can work on adding prose to the article after. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 02:12, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Caterpillar84, did you seriously add that she co-authored The Godfather book series?? I did not listen to that podcast you sourced, but if that's the type of information they're talking about on there, then I have even more reservations about that podcast than I'd already had. I have found zero sources that support that claim. Removed. Anna's supposed grandson is not a source - hence the unreliable oral accounts that this podcast undertakes - no real research is presented or documented or else they would've wrote a book.

 * Noting that they didn't claim she coauthored it, but rather consulted on it. Careful choice of language is key here, I think, Caterpillar84. As a historian whose also listened to the podcast, I do believe the claims that she's a notable figure in mob history, as well in the queer nightlife of NYC. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lwieck (talk • contribs) 02:21, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
