Cleaning up

I have removed three segments as they relied on no sources or very questionable, shady blogs. I think this page needs more care and cleaning up, so any help is welcome. Amin (Talk) 23:48, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

This page is acting as a promotional website for this man

This really needs to be cleaned up. The man pulled out a shotgun in the centre of DC in 2016 and served jail time and most of the 2016 section is about his book. It's preposterous. The page should be deleted if no established editors are looking after it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.24.235.14 (talk) 19:24, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

WP:BEBOLD and make edits you feel would improve the article. --Weazie (talk) 20:33, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

There's also no mention of his ties to the far-right conspiracy program Info Wars.--Craigboy (talk) 06:11, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Craigboy The issue originally addressed by the editors above seems to have already been addressed in the article. What changes are you proposing regarding Info Wars? Just add them to the article as the other editor suggested. Saturnalia0 (talk) 15:40, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

What "ties"? Sounds like a weasel word. I Googled Info Wars and Adam Kokesh, but found articles about him there. The website has articles about a whole bunch of public figures, not just Kokesh. Right-wing or not, it is a news website, and being written about or interviewed by them doesn't mean he has "ties" to it. I found an interview with him so if it's necessary to mention that he has been a guest, I can do that, but it sounds like trivia.--23mason (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
