Talk:Stew Albert

[edit] Merger
While looking for an article about Stew Albert today, I discovered that there are two! While Stewart Albert was his formal name, he was practically universally known as Stew. (His autobiography is titled Who the Hell is Stew Albert?) Therefore I propose merging the two articles and keeping them under this name. — Malik Shabazz (Talk | contribs) 00:40, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- No need to wait. This is an obvious case of two articles about the same person. I say, go ahead and merge. Wikidemo 21:09, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Picture
I am deleting the picture because it is celebrating the subject and there is not enough information given by the uploader to demonstrate its provenance. 129.71.73.248 23:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
- I respect the fact that it celebrates the subject, but its provenance? It was provided by Albert's widow, who is the author of the image, for use in his article. — Malik Shabazz (Talk | contribs) 00:08, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- How can that possibly be verified, though? I understand that there are labyrinthine rules pertaining to the uploading and usage of images, but the user in question solely made edits regarding this topic and picture and all we have to go on is the fact that this anonymous person says it is so. 129.71.73.248 00:15, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- I'll e-mail Judy Gumbo and ask her to verify it. — Malik Shabazz (Talk | contribs) 00:24, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

So you know her? Did you get a reply already? I would oppose it on the other previously stated grounds, but I am fine with the excised pic/thumbnail for biographical purposes. 129.71.73.248 01:13, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- I don't know her, but her e-mail address is available at her website and Stew Albert's. I also prefer the cropped picture, but I'll check that we have her permission to use the image, otherwise I'll delete it. — Malik Shabazz (Talk | contribs) 01:44, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
