Talk:Jenny Maxwell

Family
If this poor lady was born in New York in 1941 with the name Maxwell, why does it say her family immigrated to America in 1949 changing their name from Moksvold ?

The last is over the web when googling, no doubt copied from here. Claverhouse (talk) 22:17, 16 October 2015 (UTC)


 * A copy of an Earl Wilson column (immediate source Sarasota Herald Tribune Aug 28, 1958) identifies both her parents as being Norwegian born. The immigration date is obviously in error, possibly a typo for "1939". Failing a source for a definite year, perhaps it would be best to simply say "her family immigrated to America".

Removal of material from "Death" section
I have commented out what were the second and third paragraphs of the "Death" section. Although a book was mentioned in the original second paragraph, no citation was given for it, leaving readers no opportunity to evaluate its reliability (or lack thereof). Did it come from a reliable publishing company, or is it a self-published book? Meanwhile, words like "supposedly", "probably", "reputed", and "allegedly" further diminished the credibility of the paragraph's content.

The original third paragraph went into some detail about distribution of estates, but no source was indicated for any of that paragraph's content. Why were the sources not cited when the paragraph was added to the article?

With proper documentation, these two paragraphs could be significant components of the article. Without such documentation, they make the article look more like a blog post than part of an encyclopedia. Eddie Blick (talk) 15:21, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
