[edit] References
"With permission from the Massachusetts Historical Society"? The fact is used with permission? Loggie (talk) 14:32, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
- I removed the reference again, as it still makes no sense. Besides, it is not in any standard citation format. Loggie (talk) 19:58, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Notability
The article says Charles was the son of a president, got a law degree, had a family and died of alcoholism. How is notability asserted? (Family ties don't apply,as a literal example of WP:INHERITED) Paulbrock (talk) 03:16, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
- Poor Charles Adams, still a disgrace to his long-suffering father even at this late date. He doesn't even rate an entry in Wikipedia.JPSheridan (talk) 02:33, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Are you seriously doubting that multiple independent sources do not substantially discuss him? Give me a break. Don't use the notability tag in cases where it is inconceivable that notability cannot be established. Phil Sandifer (talk) 01:15, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- The sources should be added to the article then, preferably with a better description of WHY he is notable - what did he do? I'll leave the tag off for now, but "Of course he's notable" isn't a convincing argument. Even one of the links [1] admits "I hit some books dealing with John Adams and learned more. Charles is not covered in detail in any of them..." Paulbrock (talk) 08:19, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
