Wikipedia talk:Autobiography/Archive 4

Use of Zaphod Beeblebrox as an Example: Problems
If autobiographies are truly unreliable, there should be plenty of examples of real autobiographies that are problematic. However, this article uses a fictional example, which is not very compelling about the real world. Are real autobiographies such as those by famous politicians, artists, musicians, athletes, etc. generally unreliable? If so, how unreliable? Surely a historian has done some statistical analysis of how reliable autobiographies are, and they're reliable about 95% of the time, that should have some implications. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrismartin76 (talk • contribs) 13:53, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Link on Mr. Wales pic caption
It links to https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2003-August/005621.html the content doesn't make sense to me. I see you edit this often. Thanks Adakiko (talk) 00:14, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I've got limited bandwidth for a few weeks until I return from the International Space Station, but I believe that somewhere in there is the quote seen in the caption. (A lot of the old archives have messed up formatting so it may be hidden somehow.) EEng 00:34, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I've gone and fixed the link; it was indeed broken. Sometimes links could be broken like this when messages were deleted or moved around in the old version of the mailing list software, Mailman. This is one of the many, many reasons it was upgraded. Graham 87 00:51, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
