Notability and Primary Sources tags

This article conflicts with the The Second City article it is wikilinked to where reliable sources exist. Additionally, many of the sources seem to WP:SELFPUBLISH related and circular to the subject. ----moreno oso (talk) 04:07, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you think the content about Second City is wrong then why don't you read the cited sources or some of the books here and take it up with them. I'll address the second point later.Prezbo (talk) 04:09, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've read the Google books cite. While he may have been an original member, he is not credited as a founder and the other "founders" did much more to elevate the group to success. As for the "time-out" cite, it too is circular and seems to be more about his recollections. ----moreno oso (talk) 04:15, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Very nice. Please cite it and I will retract the tags. ----moreno oso (talk) 04:34, 3 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On the other hand...

Mr. Alk was a talented filmmaker, comedy writer, and comedic performer. Offstage, he was not the least bit funny, but self-centered, boorishly rude, and quite contemptuous of the technical people who assisted him, which included myself.76.247.164.104 (talk) 06:34, 24 July 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.247.164.104 (talk) 06:31, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
