[edit] Galitsin dead?

According to current rumors, Galitsin has been arrested and subsequently died in prison [1]. Any comments? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.190.157.209 (talk) 02:31, 27 March 2007 (UTC).

As noted in the article, Galitsin drafted another letter to Putin in May 2007. Hence, rumors of his death were greatly exaggerated. This is a textbook case of why Wikipedia demands information from verifiable sources and does not publish info based on rumors or hearsay. Iamcuriousblue 07:15, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Verifiable source/original research

This article is sourced primarily from internet message board discussions, which are almost never acceptable sources according Wikipedia:Verifiability#Sources. The article borders on original research. I'm going to delete most of the information in this article that is not taken from reliable sources in the next few days, unless somebody can replace these citations with reliable sources.
