User talk:Pablo 200

I hope this message goes through--considering I'm new to Wikipedia and trying to familiarize myself with it as much I can. The only reason I came here and signed up was to correct the misinformation that has been written about Andy Kaufman in re: flat-out admitting that he would fake his death then reappear again after 20 years. There is no such record; Andy never made such claims. Had who'd ever written that "welcome back home, Andy" section here done his/her research they'd see that although Andy talked a lot about faking his death, he only confided in friends--namely Bob Zmuda and Lynne Margulies--that he'd stay gone 10 years, not 20. Dead or Alive (which I happened to attend) was a tribute show. Nobody (especially the people who funded it) expected AK to resurface after 20 years because he never said he would. And herein lies the irony: you tout how contributors to this site should "know the facts" and "cite reliable" sources yet you keep re-posting that same terrible nonsense about Andy saying himself that if he were to fake his death he'd do it twenty years. As a diehard Andy Kaufman fan I'd like to ask you where your source is for keeping that up because I know there isn't (a reliable) one. It's been well-documented in articles and books (that yes, I happen to have read and own) that Andy had only planned on staying away ten years. As a fan of the man's work I can't help not be a bit purturbed over your keeping this trash up while I know it's bogus. This is the first page that comes up when people search Andy Kaufman, why not try being a little more accurate to the man, do him and his legacy a little more justice? Honestly, if that 20-year hogwash were true the concept of Andy being still alive would be more entertainable. People are being given false hope by reading that page and it's wrong. I understand the transition from the last sentence to this one (Kaufman himself even said that if he were to fake his death, he would return 10 years later") is an awkward one so why not just end it after "...it is also rare in people under the age of 40"? Granted the paragraph would look a bit dinky, limp but what good is a meaty paragraph when half of what was written in it is bullshit anyway?

Here's a few online definitions of objectivty:

"...emphasizing or expressing things as perceived without distortion of personal feelings, insertion of fictional matter, or interpretation;"

The "fictional matter" is Andy Kaufman personally saying he'd fake his death for 20 years. He never said that. Even if it were rumored you should say "it was said, rumored, etc that if Andy Kaufman were to fake his death, he'd do it 20 years"; it says here on his wikipedia page that it CAME OUT STRAIGHT FROM HIS MOUTH, which it didn't. (Whoever wrote that obviously hadn't done their research....)

That's not objectivity, it's fantasty; yet for some paradoxical reason you want to keep it alive.
