Use of single source in BLP

[edit]

All article concerning his 'death' are linked to Iranian and Russian intelligence. Can someone explain why a BLP article is reporting speculation on a single source that is also floating an inccorect photo of the source? We are not the news. We do not have a print deadline. This should be self reverted or removed immediately. Slywriter (talk) 16:17, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Slywriter, we wrote what reliable sources are saying. The Russian intelligence claim is noteworthy, the U.S. has not confirmed or denied Michael's death and we aren't siding with anyone here. We also said that the CIA has refused to comment on the Russian intelligence.--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 17:38, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Agree – the only sources seem to be Tasnim News Agency and other propaganda arms of the Iranian government. Middle East Monitor (MEMO) is essentially Hamas propaganda and likewise not a credible source. Elle Kpyros (talk) 17:54, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@SharabSalam: @Ekpyros: The matter is being discussed at the BLP Noticeboard. You're likely to get more meaningful responses to your queries there. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 17:55, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jesus... why are y'all attempting to write a wikipedia article about a guy you know nothing about? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.183.40.186 (talk) 16:26, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
