Joseph Barbera
Mr. Barbera's biography on Misplaced Pages contains 5 sources confirming he is of Sicilian ancestry. Your source is not reliable and therefore he should not be included on this list. Furthermore, do not revert constructive edits I have done on this list correcting grammar and structural errors. Please have at least four verifiable references confirming Mr. Barbera is Lebanese or this will be end of conversation. --XLR8TION (talk) 19:58, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

First off, Both my sources are Very Reliable. Who are you to say whether they are or are not reliable?! Furthermore, there is no rule that says you need 4 sources and if there was, I would have provided as many. Many sources out there state he was Lebanese. Furthermore, to use a NPOV, I stated that he was "with Lebanese and/or Italian ethnicity" That is a NPOV. So you need to accept this fact. Do not drag this into an edit war! And do not revert it!Knight Prince - Sage Veritas (talk) 21:04, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- Now you're telling people you can edit but they can't and insist his own autobio is less worthy than a web site that copied erroneous info. There are more sources that back up his autobio than your measly two sources. — Rlevse • Talk • 21:11, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not saying that. I'm saying, keep a NPOV! His autobio is a good source, just as my 2 sources are. Also, your first source, is from the AEI! Not even close to being reliable on this subject! Your second source is an Italian website! Not even close to being reliable on this subject (there are Many Lebanese websites that state that both Barbera and Hanna were Lebanese. But I have not used them to keep a NPOV!).
That leaves you with 2 sources, just as I have 2. So stop your reverts. Knight Prince - Sage Veritas (talk) 21:14, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
