Tone

[edit]

this article is written like a book review. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 03:35, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You may have something: read the author's blurbs at Amazon.com and Amazon.co.UK; the resemblance to the content of the article is uncanny. --Naaman Brown (talk) 02:58, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's usually the person himself/herself who knows what's happened, or maybe a close relative. And that's how these texts come about in that way. If it's accurate, who cares who wrote it and with what intention? The Arizona police, or sheriff would be welcome to edit, I guess.
I only care about the truth, not how it gets here or if some government has declared it a secret. Veritas non olet. 58.174.193.2 (talk) 07:01, 2 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures

[edit]

I have removed pictures except one to conform with the WP:Manual of style and to create a better looking article, specifically MOS:IMAGES. Relevant here is that the lead should contain one image best representative of the subject, and that pictures must be relevant and encyclopaedia, not decorative. And of course, not overloading articles with images is listed in the brief do's and don't at WP:IMGDD. Onetwothreeip (talk) 22:54, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Does this article belong in the English Conspiracy Theorists category?

[edit]

Does the fact he wrote "Clinton Bush and CIA Conspiracies: From The Boys on the Tracks to Jeffrey Epstein Gadfly Press (2019) " mean he is notably and verifiably a conspiracy theorist? The CIA have certainly been verifiably involved in conspiracies (that is their job!), reporting just those wouldn't make Attwood a conspiracy theorist, but reporting as fact that they faked the moon landings or killed Jeffrey Epstein may do so.

Not having read the book (not on my reading list) I don't know whether any of the claims in the book are conspiracy theories, if I read it and came to that conclusion by myself, I think that would class as original research. Has anyone read it and reported either way in a reliable source? Or reliably called Attwood a 'Conspiracy Theorist' widely enough for it to meet the criteria for categorisation?

I see him mentioned in vaguely this context here https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/10595719/prince-andrew-virginia-roberts-apology/[[1]] (tabloid) https://sunderlandmagazine.com/celebrations-as-ghislaine-maxwell-arrested-will-she-see-justice-89350/[[2]] (tabloid) https://www.hopenothate.org.uk/2020/10/22/david-icke-the-groundwork-for-qanon/[[3]] HopeNotHate don't shy away from calling Icke a conspiracy theorist, but Attwood gets 'Youtuber'.

To be clear, my answer right now is No too, I don't think anyone's written anything of note about Attwood for some time. He's mostly notable for is criminal career and books on true crime. JeffUK (talk) 07:38, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Attwood's Youtube Channel

[edit]

Attwood had his Youtube Channel closed down against his will. It was eventually restored by Youtube after Attwood deleted all his many Jeffery Epstein / Ghislane Maxwell videos (which he often gloated over, boasting about them numbering in their 100's) they were retrospectively removed by Attwood - with no explanation. This Wikipedia entry seems written in a style of self promotion, much like many of his dubious Youtube channel interviews with convicted criminals, often glorifying crime, violence and drugs culture.
