Notability

This article was created by the person it is about (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sinned) and I highly doubt this article serves any purpose other than ego stroking and self - promotion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.8.186.75 (talk) 23:11, 21 April 2012 (UTC) The article has been edited and maintained by people who have known or cared about the individual. Self promotion is a lie and nothing is to be gained by his entry...[reply]

Must be a hell of a lie to have so many citations to back it up. VoidHalo (talk) 19:16, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Death

I am putting this section in as a placeholder. An IP, 71.56.159.198, and Gomicao have attempted to change the description of Moran's death. Gomicao, if you believe that the existing version is inadequately sourced, please make your case here. If you believe that your version can be verified, please also make that case here. NewEnglandYankee (talk) 03:18, 16 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The sources in this section are a collection of internet forum guesses and regrets. They in no way accurately describe his communications with people previous to his death. So I will give up having a source of information other than from a collection of people whom knew him in an online format, and in no way represents his actual state of mind or reflects the actual scenario of his death. Anyone who cares or knows him, will see this entry as an affront to his memory and an inaccurate one at best.

My own opinion, for what it's worth, is that bluelight.org is a terrible source, and that this entire paragraph should read something like "Moran died on April 14, 2013, aged 30, in Berkeley California", citation needed, the end. I'd be okay with a second sentence that said "A posting on the drug discussion website bluelight.org stated that his death was due to an overdose", with the existing reference.

In the absence of any further discussion, I'm making this change. NewEnglandYankee (talk) 18:08, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
