Talk:Real Men of Genius/Archives/2014

Name change due to 9/11 Source
The source used for why they changed the name from "Real American Heroes" to "Real Men of Genius" is a blog. This is not an acceptable source, especially considering the blog itself does not cite anything. I'd really like to see a more primary source proving that this is in fact why they changed the name. It makes sense and the blog is well written, but the fact remains that it's a blog. I could write a blog that says they changed the name because they were bored and it would be equally valid to the current source.

As it stands, the blog used does not appear to meet the criteria required as seen on this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_self-published_blogs. The blog source should be removed and a primary source should be found.

The blog used can be found here: http://marketing-case-studies.blogspot.com/2008/02/real-american-heroesreal-men-of-genius.html

I could find neither sources nor an author.

 * Another redditor in the same thread managed to find a Chicago Tribune article which will serve to reference this section. I've added it. Moralis (talk) 03:31, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
