Michael Eric Dyson

Hello there. I am editing regarding the article on Michael Eric Dyson. I noticed some trivia about Dyson and Nancy Mace that was not sourced well, so I removed it. It was added back in with some more questionable sourcing - a Mediaite article and a youtube video. I think that according to Wikipedia policy, both of those sources are problematic, especially when no one else is reporting on the Mace/Dyson alleged interaction. I think it's too trivial to include in an encyclopedia. Please look for yourself, thank you. Oliver Phile (talk) 16:58, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm. I looked at what you removed, and I would say the removal is justified, per WP:BLPGOSSIP and WP:GRAPEVINE, at the very minimum. Historyday01 (talk) 22:31, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Oliver Phile, thank you for clearing that mess. Would you also fancy finding sources to fill the {{citation needed}} tags? Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 21:25, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
