Deleted self-published source[edit]
I deleted the stuff sourced from some professor named "Parrot." It's not a credible source, according to Wikipedia policy. It's self-published by Professor Parrot himself. WP:V says, "Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published, and then claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published books, personal websites, and blogs are largely not acceptable as sources. Exceptions may be when a well-known, professional researcher in a relevant field, or a well-known professional journalist, has produced self-published material. In some cases, these may be acceptable as sources, so long as their work has been previously published by credible, third-party publications. However, exercise caution: if the information on the professional researcher's blog is really worth reporting, someone else will have done so." Rimric press is the publisher, which is Professor Parrott's own press. [1] RJII 03:12, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
