Family history
Not sure where to put this (the Talkback thing is new to me and I don't see any option to respond messages sent to me) (my account on Wikipedia is well over a decade old) (Wikipedia has change a lot since I last did a few edits (in the past it was flagging vandalism (flagged the content by replacing the vandalism with ???s) or other small corrections)), I am trying to figure out why one of the source cites false info about my relative Caspar Weinberger, not sure it would be a Conflict of interest as I am just trying to correct false info about the family (and so that future generations not just mine & other branches of the Weinberger family don't get false info about our family history) (Casper's father was one of 12 children in the family), my branch are in contact with the a few of the descendants of some of the other children (few years ago I meat one of them via a video chat a few months before one of the on the other side died), the location of the Father's family I know for a fact was wrong (my grandfather found the history as to where the Weinberger family came from (he looked up the ship info for the family when they came to the US). Caspar Weinberger's father was Jewish but his mother was Episcopal (from what we know Casper's father fell in love with his mother, some time later Casper's father or his father's siblings family and community stopped talking to each other (not sure which side was stopped talking first). There was no "dispute at a Bohemian synagogue" as the that part of my heritage (the Weinberger side) is not from Bohemian (my grandmother's grandmother spoke Hungarian (maiden name was Weinberger), my grandfather has traced the Weinberger family to a town on the Austrian/Hungarian border for the Weinberger family. Of the 12 children a few were born in Europe and the rest here in the US (a total of 6 boys and 6 girls, 3 of the boys became lawyers, the other 3 boys became doctors). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chas4 (talk • contribs) 05:00, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I hope you don't mind, but I've removed your comment from the incorrect discussion and created a new one. I have no reason to believe you're lying about your relation to the article's subject, but without a WP:RS to substantiate your revisions, there isn't much to be done here. Wikipedia is based upon reliable sources, and not original research. KidAd (💬💬) 05:14, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

We have the facts as do the other branches of the Weinberger, what we know is that someone falsified the cited reliable source about Casper in the book about him the info about the "Weinberger's paternal grandparents had left Judaism because of a dispute at a Bohemian synagogue." as there was no such incident and his paternal grandparents helped founded a Synagogue in Denver, CO.

This is from a physical copies in the Denver University Beck archives: "Born in 1844, and descended from Hungarian and Galician families, Weinberger emigrated to the U.S.in 1888, following several years of teaching, brewery management, cattle trading and farming. In Denver he worked as a clerk and grocer, residing on Market Street. Herman and his wife Nettie were founders of B.M. H. Synagogue. A stained glass window was created in their honor at B.M. H. in 1953, by their children,"
