Weak sourcing

Routine press releases do not prove much of anything, and Who's Who listings are much worse for reliability. Is that first item you keep citing (by Pratt) a book, or a paper, or what? --Orange Mike | Talk 15:51, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pratt wrote a book on the history of Exxon and he has a section on Hess. It is a source I used a lot of. John4243 (talk) 16:34, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The book and the NYT article seem to get us over the bar here. ~Kvng (talk) 03:07, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
