Semi-protected edit request on 9 February 2024

Elizondo was born in Texas not Florida. He has tried to fix this issue but your moronic group that is going around making pages and "fixing" things you don't like on everything you feel is pseudoscience won't let it happen. You guys don't know everything. You are not always right. You took pictures at the mall for god's sake. Capstonecomplaints (talk) 20:57, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The source cited in the article says he was born in Miami. You'll need to provide a reliable source that supports that he was born in Texas. Schazjmd (talk) 21:17, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
It would be nice to be able to accept good faith but this new editor’s post does certainly make them look like another WP:MEATPUPPET coming here from the same site or sites as the others. Doug Weller talk 21:22, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
Most likely, but letting them goad me into responding in kind would be playing their game, so.... Schazjmd (talk) 21:31, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
Absolutely.. Doug Weller talk 21:56, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
It ilterally says in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune article cited in the section Born in Miami, Luis Elizondo IV moved to Sarasota around 1975. That’s when his father, Luis Elizondo III, a food and beverage manager, helped open the Hyatt hotel in Sarasota.. It's not something that Wikipedia editors randomly made up. If you can find sources that contract this please cite them. Hemiauchenia (talk) 21:28, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
Elizondo was born in Texas not Florida.
We at Wikipedia are aware that some people are saying Elizondo was born in Texas. This is why the infobox notes that his birthplace "needs independent confirmation". We have made a major effort to look for reliable sources saying that Elizondo was born in Texas, but our search has turned up nothing. If you can find a reliable souce that we've overlooked, we'd be happy to try to update the article to reflect the most accurate sources. Feoffer (talk) 10:59, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
The Herald-Tribune first published on January 3, 2021 by Billy Cox has updated their article to show that Elizondo was born in Texas but the family moved to Sarasota around 1975.Sgerbic (talk) 03:10, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
 Done Okay, @Capstonecomplaints: looks like this issue has been successfully addressed. Anyone in communication with the subject of this article, or his supporters, please relay my sincere truth that we as a project meant absolutely no disrespect to the subject and I'm happy this got solved. Thanks to everyone who helped us improve this article, especially whoever got Herald-Tribune to issue a correction! Feoffer (talk) 09:58, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
