Talk:Jack Thompson (attorney)/Research


Unused sandbox page. Seems to be mostly a source-dump and copypaste from the main page. Nothing keepable here. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:56, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * ETA: To clarify from last MFD in 2007:

I should have explained the situation better. In February and March 2006, the main article was put under WP:OFFICE scrutiny after a complaint by Thompson, and one of the community responses was to create this page, containing the text of the original article and its subarticles. When the article was reopened, a higher standard of sourcing was enforced, and the article is now significantly improved. Much of the content in the original article(s), which this page contains, is either unsourced or poorly sourced. Many of the sources are gaming sites, which were ruled inappropriate for the article, or LiveJournal posts, which are clearly not reputable sources and were largely deleted when the accounts in question were banned. As a result, this page does not resemble the current article in terms of content or quality, and there really is nothing of use in it.

I think this reasoning only holds up more strongly now. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 02:44, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

Delete - per above; it might be useful to have a standard for when Example /research pages are and are not acceptable. Achowat (talk) 13:31, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
