Unsatisfactory source

The article currently relies on a single source:

Jack Devanney (2006): The Tankship Tromedy, The Impending Disasters in Tankers, CTX Press, Tavernier, Florida, ISBN 0977647900, p.379-383

This is self-published: CTX is the Center for Tankship eXcellence, whose web page says, "Right now the CTX is basically a one-man operation headed by Jack Devanney." — Devanney is also the author of the cited book. Dricherby (talk) 15:56, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

How many references do you require for an article of 1,691 bytes? Don't label just for the sake of labelling. BoH (talk) 15:23, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

More than one, especially where that one is self published. Otherwise, it may look as if the topic is being promoted by parties related to the author of the source. – Fayenatic London 21:53, 23 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
