Did anyone actually read the "sources" for the neo-nazi claim?

Bias

You can't just call someone a neo-nazi or homophobic/transphobic on Wikipedia. You can make a controversies section or for example "[person] was in a controversy for [bad things]" or "[person] is percieved as being [racist, etc]. ~2026-48966-0 (talk) 23:04, 22 January 2026 (UTC)

We can't but reliable sources can and indeed they have, quite clearly. We don't need to pretend that there are two sides to this. We don't need to manufacture baseless doubt. We don't need to equivocate to spare his blushes. He's not blushing anyway. --DanielRigal (talk) 23:31, 22 January 2026 (UTC)
Are you a reliable source? No. No reliable sources can prove someone is homophobic, transphobic, racist, or a Neo-Nazi, unless the person mentioned in the article says they are themselves. No offense but stop trying to act so smart and actually read Wikipedia guidelines and policies. ~2026-52925-9 (talk) 17:56, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
Nothing in Wikipedia policies requires that reliable sources "prove" it. If enough of them report it as being true, we can too. AntiDionysius (talk) 18:04, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
Similarly, a newspaper might report something on the basis of confidential documents which were leaked to them. They would not be "proving" the content of that story, because they're not publishing the documents, but the point of the "reliable" part of the term "reliable source" is that we do not require them to. Having determined they are reliable, we are willing to trust their editorial process to some degree. AntiDionysius (talk) 18:09, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Please don't be so utterly silly. Please do not try to stand on policies that you clearly have not read. Please read WP:BLPSOURCES to learn about what sourcing is appropriate in a biography. Obviously, we are able to source facts about individuals that are not corroborated by the individuals themselves. In fact, you will see that we try to avoid relying on the subjects themselves for all but the most uncontroversial of facts. That is because it is hard for a person to be objective about themself, even if they try to be honest. We don't need a signed confession from StoneToss. We just need Reliable Sources. (You should probably read that link too.)
I think you know how silly you are being. I think you know that you are wasting our time. You might not realise the extent to which you are wasting your own. --DanielRigal (talk) 18:05, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
We had an RFC on labelling the subject a "neo-Nazi". There was strong consensus that we continue to do so. TarnishedPathtalk 23:43, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
