Bill Weintraub


This article violates Wikipedia's vanity page, original research,and verifiability guidelines. Concerning vanity, the oringinal text of the article (the current version of which has changed very little)seems to be a cut and paste job from User:Bill_Weintraub, which is in turn derived from a webpage that attributes itself to and is maintained by Bill Weintraub.

Concerning, original research and verifiability, there seem to be no extant, published, and freely accessible sources independent of the infromation that Bill Weintraub was directly involved in disseminating (either from his website or aritcles and interviews in the print media) that can corroborate what is written in the Wikipedia article. For instance, searching for Cambridge (MA) Gay Political Caucus and Bill Weintraub (both as qutoed phrases) turns up only the Wikipedia article and pages maintained by Bill Weintraub. Perfoming similar searches, , , , on Weintraub's othe listed activist work yields similar results. Delete Mijopaalmc 00:41, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

 * The name rings a bell, but not for this reason. If this is kept, there will need to be a disambig and at least a stub on the other B.W. -- Simon Cursitor 08:38, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
