[edit] Jewish?

Is there a source for that cat? Mad Jack 23:42, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lesbian?

I've removed the lesbian cat. If a reliable source can be found, please add the cat back in. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 18:27, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

her official site blog says so, link on the 'contact' page. 81.1.93.167 00:54, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

MySpace is not a reliable source. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 07:40, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Wiki says self-published sources (including blogs) are acceptable for articles about that person, as long as the information is relevant, doesn't mention any third party, and the authorship is proven. [the subject as a self-published source] An actress's official website is perfectly acceptable as a source for statements about that actress. 81.1.84.117 11:29, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

You missed two things - self-published information may be used if a) There is no reasonable doubt as to who wrote it and b) It's not contentious. MySpace is notorious for having fans create accounts "on behalf" of people. And per WP:BLP, a person's sexuality is considered "contentious". Please don't add the categories back in unless a reliable source can be found to confirm them. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 16:42, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh naomiwesterman.com it states that is her official blog. You're really claiming her own official site is not a source because a fan might have created it? I very much doubt a fan registered her domain name and has been running it for five years. It is cited on her own site, and is the thing she is best known for. 81.1.88.220 18:53, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

I really find that to be a dubious source at best, but I'll give in. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 10:24, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
