Talk:Hiram Fong

Resting Place Edit
Senator Fong is buried at Nuuanu Memorial Park, not Oahu Cemetery. https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=pv&GRid=9335016&PIpi=100067683 Notice also the headstone is consistent with others at Nuuanu Memorial Park, including his wife, Ellyn Lo Fong https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=fong&GSiman=1&GScid=2194119&GRid=128390757&. The adjacent Oahu Cemetery does not use headstones like those seen in the linked photographs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SirMontego (talk • contribs) 01:34, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Find a Grave as a reference
Removed Find a Grave as a reference and placed in external links. Find a Grave as a reference fails one or more of the following Wikipedia policies as a reliable source;
 * 1)-WP:SOURCES; Articles should be based on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.
 * 2)- WP:NOTRELIABLE; Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts, or with no editorial oversight.
 * 3)- WP:SELFPUBLISH; Find a Grave is user edited and uses anonymous or pseudonymous editors.
 * 4)- WP:SPS; This includes any website whose content is largely user-generated, including the Internet Movie Database, Cracked.com, CBDB.com, and so forth, with the exception of material on such sites that is labeled as originating from credentialed members of the sites' editorial staff, rather than users. Find a Grave is not currently specifically named as is IMBd but falls under "and so forth". Rational dictates that Find a Grave, while not specifically listed by name in WP:SPS, certainly falls under the criteria. Otr500 (talk) 01:11, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

incorrect parentage
"Ellyn Lo" is given as both his wife's and his mother's name. It is his wife's name; I have been unable to find his mother's name. Igodard (talk) 09:00, 15 October 2019 (UTC)
