Talk:Old Original Bookbinder's

What's with all the "citation needed"?
Bookbinders really is a very famous restaurant in Philadelphia. Some citation for this should be found, but there's no need for obnoxious fact tags after every word. john k (talk) 02:35, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Adding - the article is indeed badly written, and does read like an ad. But if somebody wants to fix it, they should do so, rather than making it impossible to read with fact tags. john k (talk) 02:36, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

John, Wikipedia policy is that all statements of fact should be supported with citations. If someone sees that a statement is unsupported, he can only add a citation if he knows the source of the claim. If he doesn't, flagging the claim with "citation needed" alerts others who may know of a source that substantiates the claim and can add it. If eventually no sources are found, the claim has to be deleted. By definition, Wikipedia is not a repository of original information, but gathers and summarizes facts that are already established by other sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:601:E03:EBC0:7D3D:F70E:7660:51D (talk) 19:51, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

Confusing
The following two sentences are very confusing.

The restaurant left the family in the 1930s when it was bequeathed to the Jewish Federated Charities. John M. Taxin, the last owner's grandson, bought it with partners Hyman B. Sichel and Jimmy Retana in 1945.

How can a restaurant leave a family? Clarification is needed.

Was Taxin part of the fmaily at one time? Abenr (talk) 02:20, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
