A question: Is an online blurb from an online "magazine" that has it's acknowledged source as a chat/egroup a reliable source of information? Should information there be considered authoritative? Posting his cause of death has nothing to do with who he was, what he did, or why he's included in Wiki. I have always been creeped out by the inclusion of cause of death, considering it an infringement of his privacy since it has nothing to do with his notability. Must we include this added bit? Is it important?Lulubyrd (talk) 00:54, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Vodou link

The link does not go to an article; it goes to a disambiguation page. Ambiguous links should be directed to the correct article, which I thought I had done by correcting it to Petwo (also spelled Petro), which defines one of two contrasting and often-paired Haitian Vodou sects (Rada and Petro). But you seemed to think that that was wrong. So I tried to prod you into supplying a useful link instead of mindlessly reverting to an unhelpful ambiguous link. Where would you like it to go? Haitian vodou#Loa? Or have you reconsidered Petwo, which would be more accurate, especially if the article were expanded? In any case the link should be changed to direct to a relevant article, or removed.--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:00, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
