Talk:Castellammarese War

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The commission and La Cosa Nostra was not set up till after Maranzano's death and the massacre of all of those that would not be loyal to the commission. ~akeldamma

There is discrepancy in these two wikipedia pages, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvatore_Maranzano http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castellammarese_War

The first page says that the killings of 40 mobsters is a myth, while the other page states it as fact. After consulting on IRC, both pages are requested to give sources for the fact. ~Ninjakttty

I'm redacting the mention in both pages, as it's not verified to be either true or false and it makes Wikipedia bad to both state both true *and* false. Dweekly 17:40, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] journal article

A new history of the Castellammare War, revealing the identity of the mysterious "Buster of Chicago," Sebastiano Domingo, and giving many other hitherto unknown facts, can be found in this scholarly article:

David Critchley, "Buster, Maranzano and the Castellammare War, 1930-1931" Global Crime journal, volume 7 number 1 (2006) pages 43 to 78.

Complete sources are given in the article.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Ukthesis (talk • contribs)
