Indictment Controversy[edit]
Really? So this individual is considered notable because he got mixed up with another person of the same name in a newspaper article? I don't think this section is worthy of inclusion into this article. SnottyWong talk 15:41, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- I question your addition of the puffery tag to that section. What wording is an exaggeration or puffery? Most of the section about the subject is an attributed direct quote. Please justify which part you feel is an exaggeration, or remove the tag. As for inclusion, since the story involves news coverage in Taxas, Florida, and New Mexico, it is clearly a notable event. Jim Miller See me | Touch me 15:51, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- There is no story. Your story is that a newspaper screwed up, wrote a story about a different Armando Gutierrez, and then mistakenly attributed it to this Armando Gutierrez. That, on its own, is not notable or encyclopedic. Was there a subsequent lawsuit or scandal that resulted from this newspaper article that would make it even minimally notable? It also speaks volumes that the best source for Gutierrez's accomplishments you can find is a newspaper retraction. I didn't add the puffery tag for exaggerated wording, I added it because you're trying to prove the Gutierrez's notability by describing a non-notable event that didn't even involve him (or at the very most, only coincidentally involved him). If this person is as notable as you contend they are, it should be easy to find real sources about Gutierrez (not mistaken identity retractions) that tell us which political candidates he was consulting for, what offices they were running for, and why he played such an important role. SnottyWong talk 18:57, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- No problem then. The fact that another paper reprinted the retraction strikes me as something rare enough to be considered notable itself, but we can certainly disagree on that. Jim Miller See me | Touch me 19:01, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- Any newspaper that ran the first story with the mistaken identity would have it in their best interests to print a retraction. That's not a rare event nor is it unexpected or unusual in any way. SnottyWong talk 19:20, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
