Publicity about Heroin Dealer Boyfriend Having Killed Jim Morrison

Surprised that is nowhere to be found on this page yet. The history goes from 'she broke up with Jagger and ended up losing custody of her daughter then became homeless.' I think she started sleeping with the heroin dealer Pam Courson had been banging, then that guy killed Morrison, and then killed himself less than a year later (also a wanderer who had a title). Apparently, Marianne's account of not really knowing what happened, just having heard it all second hand and refusing to answer any questions about details has made her less than credible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Codeslubber (talk • contribs) 23:31, 20 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Something like that would need strong sourcing. It it is true, then the reason it's not in here is that it's waiting for someone to find strong sourcing. North8000 (talk) 01:49, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Um, this has the best possible source, as I mentioned, she used it as a way to market her latest book. So at a minimum the page should mention that she claimed to know who killed him and include her tiny quote. Which was all she was willing to say about the matter. The other information, that she knew other people are the dealer's circle can be found in a number of places. Would be happy to dig those up. Why on earth are you saying if this is true?? she said it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Codeslubber (talk • contribs) 14:16, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, silly me. If somebody that I don't know (you) says that she said it is true, then I could consider it to be a proven fact and not use the "if" word. :-) North8000 (talk) 16:12, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But I see your point. I would suggest getting your sources in front of you and if they look solid start adding material to the article. North8000 (talk) 01:53, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here ya go:

Here "I" go? North8000 (talk) 21:43, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind. The page is great as it is, don't add a thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Codeslubber (talk • contribs) 14:49, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Missing any info about Metallica collaboration

At least the sentence "She provided backing vocals on the Metallica song 'The Memory Remains' which released in 1997" should be somewhere on the page. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Memory_Remains 209.203.197.27 (talk) 10:21, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
