Talk:Christopher Beaumont, 23rd Seigneur of Sark

reliable sources
I hate to be a spoilsport...

This edit added two references, and I have doubts they measure up to our standards of reliability. One merely says, "I heard him say it" Since us wikipedia contributors are, for most purposes, anonymous, our personal recollections are not reliable, and can't serve as references.

We don't regard "who's who" as a reliable source, as the subjects control what is written about them. I believe the same holds true for linkedin. So I will wait a reasonable period of time, and remove that edit, unless someone can offer a policy based rationale for retaining it.

 * I agree with you. It can also be considered quite unnoteworthy for an encyclopedia that he describes himself as a jolly good chap. --Editor FIN (talk) 05:18, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

"a building with 17 staircases"
What purpose does mentioning the amount of staircases in his/his parents' house serve? As far as I can see, it serves no purpose, so I am removing.
