Talk:Matthew Hiltzik

Birth date
The recently added source (Politico) only verifies Hiltzik's birth day and month but not his birth year. Any reliable sources that can verify the year? —Eustress talk 16:34, 11 June 2012 (UTC)


 * I will look into, but in case that there is not. Will this suffice? GD23 (talk) 16:51, 11 June 2012 (UTC)]]
 * It suffices for the birth day and month but obviously not for the year (which is really the most importance part). —Eustress talk 19:56, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Understood, just not sure if there is a source that has them all. However, most sources indicate the age of Hiltzik, which then can be combined with the source of date and month to know the year as well.(AEAA (talk) 20:13, 11 June 2012 (UTC))
 * That makes sense. After looking at multiple sources, it is clear that they contain the age of Hiltzik. That going along with the article from Politico should be sufficient. (GD23 (talk) 14:45, 12 June 2012 (UTC))

promotionalism
I have removed a considerable amount of promotionalism from the article. The details of what he did for his various customers are shown in the references--I kept essentially all of them, though I removed a long quotation not primarily about him from one. It now reads like an encyclopedia article, not a promotional web page. I think I did enough to prevent a second AfD  DGG ( talk ) 23:36, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

I believe this article now has a more neutral tone. BK450 (talk) 00:43, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

Cleanup
I've removed the self-promotion from this steaming pile. 71.212.60.44 (talk) 19:27, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
