Sources[edit]

Most of the sources for this story seem to be on the internet, and many may be derived from this article, which has been here since July, 2006. This story may have come from a book, Incredible (1977), by Kevin McFarland, Signet Press, ISBN 0-45107490-4. --Blainster 17:22, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What I mean by cleanup[edit]

This article presents an anecdote as fact. I see that at least one person has seen the newspaper. This isn't ideal because we're relying on a Wikipedian's interpretation of a primary source. I would happily delete this article because I don't think it tells us anything reliable. I'm impressed by what has been done so far, but I expect a lot more. So in the next couple of months I'd like to see Mr Herpin has been described in the literature of the subject (read: peer reviewed journals) or in independent sources. --Tony Sidaway 02:06, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Who marched to his door one day."[edit]

Did they? Did they really "march" as much as merely arrive? Would you see this type of writing in an encyclopedia? Probably not. 66.26.95.207 (talk) 18:39, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
