Talk:Tobin's Spirit Guide

TSG Based on a Real Book
I actually believe that the ghostbuster's TSG is based off of an actual book that was written by a supposedly insane french man sometime during the 1800's. I don't think that the GB's version is supposed to be the actual version of the book, but simply inspired by it. I have read about it from several sources before, but couldn't find one upon a quick search just now, as the GB name has sort of zerged the internet. I'll keep looking and post something here if I find something later on. Does anyone else know anything about this?--Quiltways 19:29, 1 December 2011‎

I removed spam related to a book
I removed the following:

Tobin's Spirit Guide has become so famous that several nonfictional books have been released using the title Tobin's Spirit Guide.

and

"* Real edition of Tobin's Spirit Guide 2"


 * What part of any of that is proper? Please explain. As for how to save this article, research the following:


 * Tobin's Spirit Guide by West End Games- It was a officially licensed version of it. Tobin's Spirit Guide is fiction. You can find a pdf of it on fan site "Ghostbusters International".
 * Ghostbusters Wiki-Tobin- No you can't use it as a reference or copy it, but read it and look over "References" and "Appearances" to write a more knowledgeable article.


 * Anyways, I can report that the reason they had referenced to Ghostbusters Wiki earlier in the year, was because they planted false information there, much like here at this article. The people doing this made the book in question. Devilmanozzy (talk) 06:45, 3 January 2013 (UTC)


 * As I have already stated, no references explaining the persons case. We need a moderator or community vote on this, but seriously why is a article on this even on wikipedia considering that it isn't a major part of the Mythos. This article is here to sell a book that is not official. Devilmanozzy (talk) 21:30, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Reference removed, Site unknown
It is unclear when it was written and what the background of the author was. It is only known that the author's name was Tobin (Portram Campbell Tobin) and that it was written some time in the early 20th century.

"Portram Campbell Tobin" which is referenced to was not in any official media. The link reference that has been used is to a web site that requires to be signed up for to read contents. I don't think that will do as a reference. Did the full name appear in any official media? yes as in:
 * John Horace Tobin (From Tobin's Spirit Guide the Role Playing Game by West End Games ISBN 0874312590 )
 * Jonathon "John" Horace Tobin (From IDW's comic series Ghostbusters issues 5, 6, and 8) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Devilmanozzy (talk • contribs) 02:26, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
