the link to the novel "the intruder" goes to a children's book by another author — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.6.110.9 (talk) 02:31, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Edit request
Virtually everything in this article now has at least one source citation. Several facts have two sources. Anything remotely resembling promotional material has been taken out. Yet there are still two paragraphs at the top claiming the article sounds like a "news release" and needs additional verification. Since all issues have been addressed, citations have been added with ISBN numbers for books, and even factual material with citations has been removed, it's hard to understand what the problem is. Why does these derogatory paragraphs remain? And what can be done to remove them? McCranky (talk) 09:55, 14 April 2015 (UTC)


 * The templates at the top of the article are not derogatory, but are intended to direct editors to areas of concern. While the tone has been greatly improved, issues remain. For instance, descriptions of books are sourced to the publisher's websites, which are not objective sources. Unless the books are individually notable--and several clearly are, given their coverage by reliable sources--then each one probably doesn't merit a separate passage. Likewise, the subject's website may be used as a source, but with great care, as it's generally not considered objective, either. IMDb is not a reliable source, since it is open to editing by users. Admission of WP:COI is greatly appreciated--this is an interesting bio, and will be further refined. Cheers, 32.216.147.44 (talk) 11:48, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
 * What the article really needs is content that can be sourced to coverage of Peter Blauner, exclusively, rather than reviews of his books. If you have articles about or interviews with the subject, or if he's been referenced in publications for his achievements or expertise, such sources would be very helpful. I've thus far not been able to find a lot online. Thanks, 32.216.147.44 (talk) 12:16, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
