Simone Téry
- ... that Simone Téry was reputedly the only journalist to ever interview the Irish revolutionary Micheal Collins? Source: "Téry is reputed to have been the only journalist, French or otherwise, to have ever interviewed Collins."[1])
Created by Meanderingbartender (talk). Self-nominated at 11:32, 6 May 2018 (UTC).
- 5x expanded within the seven days preceding the nomination, in time, long enough, sourced, no apparent copyvios, QPQ done. Template:U, inserted the word "reputedly" into the hook to match the source and the article. --Usernameunique (talk) 01:04, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
- the word "reputedly" should not appear in the hook, as it is a WP:WEASEL word, and is not attributable to anyone. Who did the reputing? The source is also slightly questionable, being an essay by a PhD student on the National Library of Ireland's blog. There seems to be a better source at [2], although this does not assert that she was the *only* journalist to interview him, just one of very few. Might I suggest rewording the article and the hook to reflect the verifiable assertion that she was one of very few? — Amakuru (talk) 10:14, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
