Kindell

Kindell is not RS and needs to be purged from the article entirely. You'll need to find other sources for that information.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 08:06, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

References

Tidied the citations but changed them to sfn as it's the only system I know. Keith-264 (talk) 10:03, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not really kosher, but doesn't bother me. Dunno if you want to devote any more time to this, but it has cites to non-existent sources.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 13:53, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Are they the ones that Dagos puts back? Keith-264 (talk) 14:14, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No. Actually I was thinking of Castelrosso and couldn't find it until I looked in the web sources and found it under a different name. So that's just a bad cite, not a non-existent one. I've just purged Kindell again as he's totally non-RS. I'm not really in a position to assess the RS nature of the Italian-language sources, but I have noticed some discrepancies with the few sources I do have on hand.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:29, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The narrative

I've made a few changes but because I'm gleaning from divers sources there are inconsistencies in what happened and when. I am unsure where the article yet takes sufficient account of this. Does anyone know of a source that goes into detail? Regards Keith-264 (talk) 07:46, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
