[edit] Copyright issues

As in several other pages blanked by 24.147.103.146, the allegation of copyright violation seems completely erroneous. Please note that the image is a mug shot, and is therefore in the public domain under Federal law. -Lanoitarus _^(talk) .:. 21:23, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

• Likely source of image is here: [1], where it is clearly identified as a mugshot. -Lanoitarus _^(talk) .:. 18:53, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

The fact that it is on a website does not prove it is a mugshot. There is none of the typical details found in mugshot present. No textboard or police ID. Until you can find the original source you are only guessing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.147.103.146 (talk • contribs).

[edit] New Image

I think we can all reach agreement on this solution. Since the images from CourtTV are clearly identified there as being Mug Shots, I have simply replaced the previous images with the CourtTV ones. This should alleviate any potential issues. -Lanoitarus _^(talk) .:. 19:59, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Flemmi full blooded Italian

Stephen Flemmi is a full blooded Italian and not half Irish as indicated. The New England Mafia often invited him to join.

Is there a source? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.31.164.243 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Non-standard English

I corrected a couple of obvious typos or misspellings, but the article struck me overall as needing some cleanup.Tzittnan 20:17, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Needs Copy Editing badly

I think that a better tag for this article would be for Copy Editing. I am going to add that and remove the "wikify" and "cleanup" tags, as copy editing is a more appropriate term for what this page needs. It is already formatted and categorized like a typical wikipedia biography (therefore already wikified), and it looks clean (therefore not requiring cleanup). Its only the writing itself that is poor, the content is great. Benijuana 12:36, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
