This article could use some sourcing. I just added the first footnote, and that was on a minor point.--Lastexit 14:50, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

The information on Ringo's death contradicts the same topic in his page. Ours18 11:20, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

You noticed. It does indeed, and the Ringo article is much more historical. The reason is that the info HERE was added by somebody who believes the stuff about Ringo in "I Married Wyatt Earp", a good part of which is now known to have been completely fictionalized by Glen Boyer from a nonexistant Sadie Earp manuscript (only one is known as authentic and it omits this material), and is therefore generally not a reliable historical source (again, this includes most of the Ringo material). Sadie did not in general dwell on Wyatt's shoot-em-up exploits, and she never claimed the Earps or Holliday killed Ringo. It needs fixing when I get around to it. Meanwhile, I suggest anybody with a copy of "I Married Wyatt Earp" move it to the dime-novel western fiction part of their bookshelves, right alongside the Louis L'Amour.
