an entire biography where the subject of the biography is the primary source for 90% of the facts stated in the article. The question is then, "When is using unreliable or self-published sources appropriate?" I would say "Only rarely, under exceptional circumstances". Otherwise the policy that you propose says "Material from questionable or self-published sources may be used as primary source material in articles about that source's author." My wording says it should almost never be done, that one should resort to digging to find reliable sources. This is a pain, I know, however, when Knowledge, or an editor from it attempts to do "reporting" by collecting and using primary sources rather than reliable and citable sources, that level of work and detail should be taken (if you feel that reporting is sometimes appropriate, which I could argue agains). To allow reporting, and to give "permission" via the policy with the wording you suggests, introduces a hole in which unreliable and uncertain information enters into wikipedia, and then is quoted by other wikipedia articles, and by reliable sources such as newspapers and magazine. It is only a matter of time before this creates a problem where the reliability and fact checking of articles by "reporters" at wikipedia comes into question, and the reliability of the information in Knowledge as a whole is subject to scrutiny. Although it would be my personal preference to
2835:"any facts, opinions, interpretations, definitions, and arguments published by Knowledge must already have been published by a reliable publication in relation to the topic of the article" and "The prohibition against original research limits the possibility of an editor presenting his or her own point of view in an article. By reinforcing the importance of including verifiable research produced by others, this policy promotes the inclusion of multiple points of view in an article" When I interview Barack Obama and ask his opinions about the failings of the current administration, and then use that in the Knowledge biography of Barack Obama, regardless of the content, isn't that original research? Has this already been printed by a reliable publication before? If it has, is it okay for me to refere to Mr. Obama's web page, rather than the Time article? How is what I put in the Knowledge article now considered to be "verifiable research?" 2769:
sources for it, then those belong in the article. If there other views, even if it helps balance NPOV, but there is no reliable reference for the view, then that is unfortunate, but does not belong in the article. Although we should be intimately concerned about acting ethically, it is not our job to resolve conflict for controversies described in wikipedia, nor to do reporting on events. As an encylopedia we are here to report facts as cited by verifiable sources, not try to act as a judge, mediator, forum for fairness or collection of all opinions and viewpoints about a person or topic. We can have compassion for people who are treated unfairly by culture, society, or the government, but it is not our job to offer a place where every notable person is represented to their liking. Living BIO's should have content with facts as supported by other peoples research, not our own, or our or the subjects research or opinions.
1361:"questionable." (See below.) Editors are most likely to encounter these exceptions in the areas of popular culture and fiction, where professional sources offer shallow coverage, or none, than for established subjects where professional sources dominate. In these cases, and where there is consensus that the sources in question are accurate, trustworthy, and reasonably free of bias, such a source may be used. If reasonable objections are raised about the use of a questionable source, it should not be used. Questionable sources must never be used to support biographical claims about living persons, or to support fringe theories or marginal positions in the areas of history, politics, current affairs, science, religion, and other academic disciplines. 4073:
for NOR and V across Knowledge. Although a number of editors complain about them regularly, that doesn't change the fact that there is strong support for them; previous attempts to change them have attracted little or no support. Secondly, I think people will welcome a genuine tightening and streamlining of V and NOR, but only so long as there's no fundamental change, and so long as the streamlining really is an improvement in terms of clarity of thought. If we have sentences or sections where, as someone else said, you have to do a double take when reading it, it won't get support. We could have a dozen editors on this page agreeing on every single point; it'll make no difference unless the community gets behind it.

completely false. If George Bush's blog gives info about George Bush, or John Doe's about John Doe, we can use it so long as the person is notable enough for an article in the first place. (b) What is the difference between "only rarely" and "under exceptional circumstances"? (c) What is the point of saying "other" reliable references "elsewhere"? (d) It's not even clear what it means: it seems to be saying we may only use the self-published source for non-disputed material that no one else has written about, which implies we may NOT use it if there's a dispute. So if the NYT says "Johnny is a killer," and Johnny's blog says: "The NYT is wrong. I'm not a killer," we're not allowed to quote Johnny? Who decided that?
593:
premises. Arithemetic calculations, for example, are allowable because there is a well-defined system of arithmetic which may be independently verified by anyone. This change was partially prompted because of past concerns regarding the inclusion of examples of mathematical concepts—which cannot be legally reproduced verbatim from textbooks and which cannot be altered without following a system of deduction that are not as "straightforward" as arithmetic calculations. This also has applications in philosophy and the natural sciences, and theoretically includes the variations in wording that are common to all articles. Please help come up with a better solution.

and reputable sources, and the reliability of those sources is judged by the ability of that journal, newspaper or publisher to do good research and apply/interpret/express it in an applicable and ethical way. We (wikipedia) take on that role, and thereby jeopardize our reliability and credibility in trying to report and publish original research. The reasons we prohibit and express that we are not publishers of original research are sound. This exception should either not be allowed, or only allowed under rare circumstances where the information is necessary to express the notability of the person involved, and is not controversial or disputed.
237:- this isn't just the rule that applies to corporate press releases. It's the rule that applies to an author's blog where he talks about his latest book, or where J. Michael Straczynski talks about Babylon 5, or where the White House releases the text of one of George Bush's speeches. We can't strengthen this rule to ward off corporate vanity at the expense of legitimate contributions, and we shouldn't attempt to state the case more strongly than we mean to. Lots and lots of topics rely heavily on this kind of source - it's not a case of "rare use" at all, and to call it rare is just misleading. 1855:
content disputes would be to invite the editor to consider whether his edit really does fit within our inclusion criteria - highlighting, where appropraite, where I feel it fails to. That editor can then address what he has to do to make edits stick in Knowledge. SlimVirgin prefers a more confrontational approach along the lines of "you can't do that because it is written that you can't". Only that fails to encourage positive behaviours. Especially as the next stage might be for the editor to copy SlimVirgin's approach and get a further rebuke because he has done something further wrong,
3099:
clearly in the polcies we're attempting to replace, but the text describing reliable sources here, under key principles, seems to be written with secondary sources in mind; the reliability of primary sources doesn't necessarily depend on "process and approval between document creation and publication", "people engaged in checking facts, analysing legal issues, and scrutinizing the writing", etc. Is it possible this text could be added to, or slightly tweaked, to acknowledge that primary sources can be reliable sources? Is not, can it be addressed elsewhere on this page? --
4003:
Chumbawumba). I believe that discussions here, though they might not always lead to a change in the text, seed group thought in ways that will eventually bear fruit. Although I agreed with the removal of the phrase in question, I continue to ponder how the matter of citations to reliable sources that are unreliable for the particular reference might be covered in this text. This all takes time and requires much patience and the ability to cope with appearing to be ignored or overruled.
1499:, I actually agree on most points. The return of the linking of Knowledge:Attribution back to itself strikes me as illogical -- why would you want a page to link to itself? -- and there's a typo that I removed (an extra full stop) that has been reintroduced, but other than that, I think every reversion made is an improvement. The resulting policy is clearer, less wordy, and adds less additional restrictions that aren't present in current policy. 583:
considered". To continue, reverting varied changes wholesale is pointless, is not going to convince anyone that you are right, and is not going to lead to the adoption of this policy; you do not have a monopoly on this page. If you wish to correct the errors you think are in these changes—and you only mention the above three—then you should not revert the many productive changes along with them. To address the specific objections you raise above:

addresses the concerns of advanced users, by giving specific interpretation of those principles in particular areas. There are a number of prohibitions of things that there is wide agreement should be prohibited (e.g. self-published sources) and also exceptions for those prohibitions in cases where they clearly aren't sensible (e.g. when a source was written by the subject of the article and its content is credible).
2795:. That is totally wrong understanding of current policy! What we are discussing is that in BLPs and in articles about organizations, the POV of that person or organization can be sourced to their self-published material, be that a press relelase, a website, an annual report, etc. That has been the policy so far, as it is consistent with NPOV that states that all significant viewpoints need to be presented. 2360:" than for established subjects where professional sources dominate". It's the "or none" that confuses the sentence to the point where it's hard to read, I think, that's the problem here; with it in, you can't easily see that the two clauses are connected like that. OTOH, switching to "most likey" and dropping everything from "than" onwards makes the sentence even clearer, and I see no downside to it. 335:
Or, "This is important to the notability, and I think this may be the exceptional case for putting the claim since I am pretty sure it is true, and I have looked and can find no reliable source." Or maybe "The subject claims this event happened and was covered by the media, I wonder why I can't find any record of that ever happening. Maybe I should not include it in the article."
3218:-- needs to be addressed directly, regardless of what language we use to describe that concept. IMO, a lot of the never-ending talk on this subject comes from confusion about when it's okay to use a source reflexively vs. when that's original research -- this is a distinct issue. I feel we need to be clear about this in the main policy itself, rather than just in the FAQ. -- 2724:
this part of the discussion because it is one that I have had trouble with myself. From my reading, this proposed policy seems to be an attempt at changing policy as well as better clarifying it. So, if my wording does not exactly match current policy, that would be intentional. Obviously I think clarification of that part of the policy is important.
1617:. Another editor came along and changed the correlation to the edit I linked to above; that is, he used the study as a primary source, deciding for himself which statements to highlight, and in so doing violated NOR, even though he was able to source what he wrote. This is an example of why it's important to retain the primary/secondary distinction. 557:
mathematical sense is valid." (a) What is the difference between the first sentence and the second? (b) What exactly is a "purely logical entailment," as opposed to any other kind? (c) What is a logical entailment "in the mathematical sense", and are only deductions "in the mathematical sense" allowed? And (d) what exactly is meant by "is valid"?
2617:: not what the current policies say or what current best practise is. It would mean we couldn't use a self-published source in an article about himself regarding an issue that was disputed. Also, could you answer my question above: what is the difference in that edit between "only rarely" and "under exceptional circumstances"? 1510:
particular has been failing to do that, preferring to railroad her views through. I'm sure that this has meant that many potential contributors to this page have moved away. It also means that, regardless of any claims to the contrary on this page, there is likely to be a lack of buy-in amongst Wikipedians more generally,
845:"Straightforward", coupled with an example of simply calculating a percentage, does not allow for more complex mathematical examples necessary to demonstrating a topic. The recent addition that "any reader" must be able to understand it is even more restrictive. We cannot simply copy these examples out of a textbook. 3586:
itself"? If I'm writing, for example, about a notable propaganda film, that film might have had terrible fact-checking, but I should still be able to use it as a source for purely descriptive claims about the film itself. I can't possibly see the harm in adding that other than increasing the word count slightly. --
1698:
WP:RS and WP:NOR. OK, some may argue that it does not cover everything, but WP:V could easily be expanded by a little bit so that it does. So if we are to have a merged WP:V, WP:NOR and WP:RS policy, it's best to start with WP:V as it now stands, and look at what tweaks are necessary to stress the WP:NOR parts.
4240:
Something like that would shrink things dramatically but it would imply throwing away a lot of text that has been carefully negotiated over the last years, including most (or all) talk about "primary sources". As that may never happen, and I am here not for law negotiations but for article writing, I
4152:
I now do see your point that that single sentence may be less clear to some than the half a page with which everyone is familiar and with which you compare it, it's an unfair comparison but I did not deliver a full replacement when I should have. By chance I just typed it on another page, I copy here
3360:
Not so sure about that summary. The preceding paragraphs explains it quite clearly. Regarding your idea posed above for a poll, I would say, God forbid! This proposal is developing nicely and many editors have contributed of the last month or so. The existence of this proposal as been posted on the
3305:
Regardless, NOR does presently allow for the use of primary sources, and whether or not they're difficult to maintain in a collaborative environment, it would represent a pretty major change to suddenly discourage that. I'd be happy with even a single sentence acknowledging that published sources are
2834:
I'll go review Original Research again, but IMO a wikipedia editor gathering data from primary sources is reporting, or original research. Citing a Time Magazine article where a reporter gathered the data from primary sources would not be reporting, or original research. Doesn't the NOR policy say
2629:
I'm getting the impression that the people currently editing this page don't know what the current content policies say, which is why they're having difficulty editing the proposal without adding internal inconsistencies or unworkable new ideas. Am I right about that? If I am, it's a problem, because
1429:
But my point was not so much to edit this section now as to demonstrate how the length of the policy could be cut by rinsing it of word and sentence pileups of the sort this paragraph is stuffed with. And length, of itself, isn't the issue for me, but the fact that stodgy language obfuscates the core
856:
Regarding self-published sources, for example, a person's memoirs are likely not a reliable source on the person's life. The statements may not be contentious or self-serving, but they are nevertheless based on that single person's recollections and would need to be corroborated by secondary sources,
236:
I agree - remove "only rarely, under exceptional circumstances." Furthermore, the bit after that is confusing and unclear (It seems to be saying that self-published sources about the author can't be used at all to present the author's POV of a disputed event, which is a catastrophe for BLP). Remember
179:
Sometimes it makes sense to quote from a primary source, even if the same information is repeated in a secondary source. If that secondary source added no analysis or other value, why not use a primary source for basic uncontested information? I would only require a secondary source in the event of
128:
As you can see the new wording is a big departure from previous understanding, and it is extreme. With this new wording, for example, we will not be able to quote from company's websites, official press releases, and other literature published by corporations such as annual reports, for example. The

Slimvirgin, never mind: From this result after consensus was reached about it following a one week discussion in which all those questions were answered, I'm sure that streamlining policy is doomed to fail. As the current policy only raises questions and confuses people and the new one won't be much
3015:
I see your point, but note that you are taking it to an unnecessary extreme. An article on Acme, Inc. can (and should) include material about the way that Acme, Inc describes itself in their company literature. If there are competing views about Acme, Inc, we list them. All to abide by NPOV. In the
2888:
Interviewing the person, or taking it from his blog or his web site is all the same thing. Why would speaking with him in person be original research, but quoting what he put on his web site NOT be original research? All three are one persons opinion expressed three different ways. Us quoting any
2572:
That removes the impression that fiction is an area with shallow sources but leaves room for the possibility that some works of fiction are shallowly covered. And I think it keeps to the spirit of the idea that such examples will be exceptions, rather than that the whole areas of fiction and popular
2486:
If ever there was an area of knowledge where "professional sources" offer thorough coverage, it is in the area of fiction; apart from anything else, the books, films, TV programmes etc. are professionally produced through a collaborative effort involving many people; then we have all the newspapers,
2198:
And in many ways it does do all of them, despite the fundamental difficulty of writing all of these things down. The "key principles" section is accessible to new users, and introduces the basic idea reasonably well (although it could do with some editing before it is finalised IMO). The remainder
2141:
The real question is whether the source is reliable (or reputable). Where sources are self-published that certainly raises our scepticism about them - probably to the level that it is a rebuttable assumption that they should not be used. But it really depends on the claim. If I write that my fiancée
1590:
I'd add that I really see WP:NOR as following on pretty much automatically from WP:V. I've asked before, but haven't had any response apart for from SV, as to what violates WP:NOR but is acceptable to WP:V. It seems simpler all round, just add to the pre-existing WP:V the answer to that (if there is
1285:
For information, we're currently somewhere between 1700 and 1800 words, excluding bits like the contents table, notes & references section, further reading, etc. I suspect getting it all down to 1500 would improve the clarity and make more people likely to read it, but at 1000 words it may well
1249:
And I would say this: there are relatively few good writers on Knowledge—plenty of good scholars, analysts, researchers, toilers, yes; but not many good writers, as is inevitable—and Slim Virgin is one of them. In my opinion, we should give her her head on the writing; without doubt we'd then end up
932:
I've explained above why I reverted, Centrix. As for the self-published thing, the proposal and the existing policies say "The material must be relevant to the person's or organization's notability; should not be contentious or unduly self-serving; and must not be used to support claims about topics
195:
The primary source is unfiltered information, and you act in a primary gathering role (original research). The quality and reliability of the information is suspect, and we should either not use that information, or only in the rarest of circumstances. In other types of articles, we quote reliable
4072:
Harald, you've said a few times that something has consensus here just because a few editors have agreed. The problem with that position is you're assuming people don't disagree unless they say so, but that's not how consensus works. Two things are clear to me: first, that there is strong consensus
3581:
I do agree that the distinction you refer to is important. I'm just iffy about emphasis that's being placed on fact-checking as a determiner of reliability without some explict exception being made for primary sources. I may be needlessly worrying, but on the other hand, there are plenty of editors
3098:
I realise we're trying to slim this down, which is certainly a good idea, but in the current draft it appears that there's neither discussion of how primary sources can be used, nor the previous "sources requiring in interpretation" text. That primary sources can be reliable sources was stated very
2996:
Getting information (regardless of the content) directly from the person, or from their blog, or the web page that they design and maintain as an extension of themsleves and interests is nothing more than original research. Not using such material might lead to inconvenience, but it is better than
2723:
I'm aware that there are at least a dozen people here who have substanitally more experience and understanding of the large view of Knowledge policies than I do. In fact I continue to be humbled by the careful thought and experience that many of the people here have and express. I stay limited to
2183:
My preferred approach is to address the first of those four audiences, but in a way that also allows us to address the fourth. My belief is that SlimVirgin (and some others) have written a policy to address the third of those audiences, but not the other three. It is there that our differences lie.
1803:
And SV, stop misrepresenting me! I have not tried to remove any concepts from WP:V at all - indeed, I'm suggesting adding one, namely a definition of "reliable sources", which we do not have. WP:V is already based on well-worded, precise principles. And having a principle-based approach to deciding

We say of OR: "it is legitimate to make simple mathematical calculations or straightforward logical deductions based on properly attributed, relevant data that neither change the significance of that data nor require additional assumptions ..." Then someone added "A purely logical entailment in the

What the editor should think from the policy is: "I can' find a reliable reference, should I use this quote from the person themself? (original research) Hmmm. It isn't really important to the notability, I shoud leave it out. Maybe I should look for a reliable reference to support the event.".
318:
I think that "Only rarely, under exceptional circumstances" is precise and describes the exception perfectly. "Material from questionable or self-published sources may be used as primary source material in articles about that source's author only rarely, under exceptional circumstances, when other

I'm not going to continue responding to Jguk, but for him to turn up here talking about collaborative editing after the revert war he engaged in with Radiant over the three content policies today, against multiple editors, is stunning. That's my last comment to you, Jguk, because you're doing this
2945:
21:35, 14 November 2006 (UTC) NPOV allows us to publish POV, but says that we should be balanced and offer all (citeable, referenced) views. Gathering his views by interviewing him (or from his web site) may be in alignment with NPOV, but not NOR. We can site the Time article where he expresses
2740:
I can't agree with you. Knowledge is not a forum for resolving dispute (what a topic that is...) Indeed, if someone is accused of something by a reliable source, Knowledge is not the forum for resolving that. The appropriate manner would be that a newspaper or magazine would interview the person
1697:
Not only that, in terms of concise policy, WP:V does the trick already. The policy is outlined briefly in a box at the top of the page, and the rest of the text is short, but offers a little extra guidance on how the policy should be/is implemented. It also largely covers the essence of what is in
1405:
I think you're taking it a little too far. The heading should be a statement of a principle, which "Editorial judgement" isn't. I'd agree that the current one is a little too wordy, and perhaps doesn't address the point quite as directly as is desirable. Maybe "Selecting sources requires common
1311:
Possibly. But the way to keep a document concise is to know what it aims to do: if it aims to set out principles, stick to that aim. Examples, exceptions, ifs, buts, and bunions can go in the FAQ. People elaborate the core text because they think the idea is to address as many individual issues as

That's not policy. Unsourced contributions are welcome and always have been, and unsourced statements are not and should not be uniformly removed. Information on Knowledge need only be verifiable, except in the special case of controversial material about living persons. That the information be in
3799:
The point is that it gives the possibility to delete half of the rest of the policy page, as it's already summarized by it. That opens up the space to add another one or two lines that spell it out a little more. Your comment also shows that you didn't read the discussion: "Unreliable sources are
3613:
It is generally required to cite sources that are reliable for the claims that are made. Verifiability makes no exceptions but is demanded for all notable published information. And it is policy that articles must be properly sourced with fair citation of all notable points of view, in accordance
3040:
As an aside, I'd like to welcome SlimVirgin's approach here of questioning the amendment on the talk page rather than reverting. This allows for propoer discussion of Atomaton's suggestion - and after the discussions today in particular, I hope this presages a return to constructive collaboration
2768:
I see your point about access to the media. However, we have a very tight policy regarding Biographies of Living Persons, and slander or unsourced negative comments are not allowed in them. If a person can make what could be viewed as negative descriptions in a BLP, and find proper and reliable
2055:
Oh yes. I hope it was clear from my original posting to this thread that my personal answer is that the proposal is currently failing but is also retrievable. If there is goodwill on all sides, and sensible discussion of all issues raised in good faith, I'd very much hope that the outcome of this
1876:
The other side effect of SlimVirgin's approach is to have much, much longer policies. This isn't a good idea. Most Wikipedians never read beyond the policy title anyway. (What does "attribution" mean as a policy anyway?) Very few will ever read more than a few paragraphs. The solution to me is to
1693:
I don't mean this in a bad way - many people have spent many minutes or hours trying to craft it, but it seems more like a discussion page rather than one that is actually suited to being a policy. I say this as, whilst it explains and elaborates on points already contained within WP:V and WP:NOR
1628:
So that makes NOR a corollary of V, that deals with the synthesis of otherwise verifiable information, into a conclusion that may be considered obvious or common sense by some, but is not in fact documented anyplace else. Is that broadly correct? Another rationale for NOR that I could think of is
614:
On further consideration of number 1, we should not blanketly allow self-published sources on articles about the author, as this will simply allow an article that presents the author's views. The author's own book is a reliable source with regard to what his ideas are, but it is not necessarily a
391:
Phil Sandifer mentioned that this section applies to a Bush speech released by the white house. It does not. The US government is a reliable publisher, and material from the US governement is not self-published. The same might be said of many corporate sources, so long as the material is released
3458:
I would appreciate if you lower your tone and spare us the rhetoric. The discussions you refer to are of no consequence as these were made at a different time, and since then a lot has changed in the current formulation. As for your "I strongly disagree with your removal", I counter that with "I
2706:
You make it sound as though it had been prohibited. The way it is written now, many people will quote this when it is poolicy and suggest that they do not need other sources, that sourcing the subject of the articles blog, or personal web page is sufficient, even if other sources are available.
2167:
The reason I think we should address this is that the approach this page should take really depends on the answer to that question. If we were explaining over V/NOR/RS policies to a journalist, we'd use different language than we would to a seasoned Wikipedian, to your parents, or to an academic
1968:
By the way, I agree with you that Verifiablity is a well-written page (despite its unhelpful title); it's NOR and Reliable Sources that are rotten. A page combining all three is therefore a valid proposal. Please work with SV rather than against her, because we need both your efforts on the same
1157:
No, material about living persons must follow this policy regardless of whether it is in the main biography about the living person. Also, what do you mean when you keep saying "change for the sake of change"? These changes were made for specific reasons to improve the page, not simply to make a
582:
There are undoubtedly changes and parts of the article that need improvement, but that does not warrant doing a mass revert on edits which are mostly minor tweaks; and doing so was not going to convince other editors—oh, I see you reverted again, with the insulting edit summary of "not carefully

I would disagree that the US Government is not self-publishing when it publishes things like the Congressional Record, Presidential speeches, etc. Regardless, the point stands - the policy that protects against what this is trying to block is the vanity policy. This adds no extra protection, and
3790:; thus it is neither "concise" nor "logical". Using your qualifier I could easily imagine someone arguing "Sure, this Holocaust denial website is untrustworthy in general, but regarding the claim that Hitler had an IQ of 177 it is, in fact, a reliable source". Unreliable sources are unreliable. 3772:
That's exactly the point: to reflect the policy better, in a more concise way, based on logical instructions. Consensus was that such an important improvement was obtained by replacing the phrase that "a source must be reliable" by the phrase that "a source must be reliable for the claim being
3585:
Alternatively, could an exception be added to to the "questionable and unreliable sources" section, parallel to the "Questionable or self-published sources in articles about their authors" exception? Something on the order of "Questionable or self-published sources in articles about the source
1854:
I think my disagreement with SlimVirgin boils down to this: I believe that we should have a small number of well-worded principles that tell the reader concisely what they should do. SlimVirgin prefers to have a list of prohibitions setting out things she does not like. My approach to resolving
1509:
I agree with Bi that the proposal is currently flawed. I have noted before what makes a good policy - and few of those points have been adopted, I'm afraid. I should have added that ensuring all expressed views are properly considered when drafting the policy is another point, and SlimVirgin in
224:
And please note that here Wiki-lawyering is happening that has become rather unnecessary: it's rather overdone now that we have an improved introduction which emphazises that a source must be reliable for the claim being sourced. From that automatically a rule can be deduced like the one in the

Bailey, I don't think you need worry that the use of primary sources is being discouraged here. Can you really see any sign of that? What has happened is that consensus has emerged that all sources are subject to the same need for attribution and that we mustn't add our own original thought to
3213:
I'm not 100% certain we're talking about the same thing here. I'm presently neutral on the question of whether referring specifically to "primary sources", "secondary sources" etc. is especially confusing; however the basic concept -- that certain kinds of published sources are always reliable
674:

I think my point is that the way that it is worded it explicitly gives people permission to add materiable from questionable or self-published sources. My edit does not prohibit it, it merely says that that it should only be done rarely, and under exceptional circumstances.

This should be done by taking the best of those pages, WP:V, and tweaking it to merge the other ideas into it. Plus by making sure we keep things simple and easy to follow (WP:V largely does this, WP:NOR much less so, WP:RS, well, I think you said it yourself, Radiant:) ).

By wording it without that, "Material from questionable or self-published sources may be used as primary source material in articles about that source's author, when other reliable references for non-disputed events cannot be found elsewhere." Almost reverses the meaning.

No, this is not an attempt to change policy, and the change you made would be completely unworkable, and indeed absurd, because it would mean a self-published source, if accused of something by a reliable source, would not be allowed to defend himself.

What is needed is to decouple "questionable sources" from "self-published sources", as not all self-published sources are questionable, and in many situations a self-published source is needed to provide the viewpoint of the author, organization, etc.

As JulesH emphasizes (and others earlier on this Talk page), a primary source is usually a more reliable source about itself than a secondary source. It happens to be for the reason of reliability and verifiability that reliable articles always quote

I said from the start that I thought this page should set itself a 1000-word limit. Anything longer invites subclausing and elegant (or inelegant) variation. One idea to a sentence is the best principle. And as few subordinate clauses as possible.
3433:. If the earlier sentences would explain it as nicely, there would be no need to mention exceptions that are to be explained later. I am sure about that exception-free phrasing: it was the consensus that resulted from an extensive discussion, see 1564:; (2) it is too verbose, which is a good point; and (3) there is an emphasis on prohibition, e.g. of OR, which I don't really see a solution to. So we could start by trimming this page somewhat to make it more concise and clear, would that help? ( 165:
I think the difference is relatively small also. It leaves the exception open, as it was before, but uses language to guide this use to only if other sources are not available. An unreliable or self-published source should be the last resort.

In particular, this policy has been sharpened as follows: topics about scientific theories must be based on peer-reviewed publications and historical topics must be based on history articles.

Bear in mind that we're not here to change the policies, but to streamline then. What NOR says now about primary/secondary is what's policy, and this proposal must either say or reflect it.

However, the proposal should be brought to the attention of a large amount of Knowledge editors. How can that be done, as apparently most editors never look (or don't know where to look)?
