Improper use of primary sources

[edit]

Wikipedia doesnt care what happened or didnt happen with kickstarter campaigns until third party reliable sources do. Stop attempting to utilize Wikipedia in your revenge campaign. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 02:00, 4 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

BOZ I'm not having much luck finding 3rd party coverage. Can we use the Kickstarter campaigns themselves as the source for each one that hasn't fulfilled backer promises? What is more interesting is that I did find the paperwork for Whitman getting sued in civil court in NY over one of these Kickstarter campaigns: https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/DocumentList?docketId=lEBiBFZoIZ4ZkV7IOT2L4w==&display=motion But again, it doesn't appear anyone is covering it. So maybe the better question is about if Whitman meets the notability threshold? Sariel Xilo (talk) 21:38, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It would be better to use sources that cover the kickstarter campaigns, but if there are none to be found right now, then I would not worry about it for now. BOZ (talk) 21:42, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Potential sources

[edit]

The 2014 edition of Designers & Dragons notes that in Pyramid #25 (May/June 1997), there was an article about Traveller by Timothy Brown called "The Classic Science-Fiction Roleplaying Game Returns" that does mention Whitman. I imagine it talks about him more than just the one quote that was in the book. I will try to track down a copy of this magazine. BOZ (talk) 21:37, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I would also say that any sources about some of his projects on his IMDb page may speak about him as well. BOZ (talk) 21:40, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
