[edit] Sexuality, mental health

I (User:Ted Wilkes) posted the following to User talk:Cleduc:

I removed your statement as to her insanity and lesbianism as well as the category. The information that you took from [1] is unacceptable to Wikipedia standards. Should you obtain documented proof from acceptable sources as to this issue and her alleged sexuality, then please reinsert it. In the meantime, to avoid this problem with other article edits I suggest, amongst others, the following Wikipedia policy information would be helpful:

Wikipedia:Reliable sources - Wikipedia:WikiProject Fact and Reference Check - Wikipedia:Forum for Encyclopedic Standards - Wikipedia:Verifiability - Wikipedia:Check your facts

Thank you.

Documented additional sources for this information, notably Roger Ebert's interview. I am seeking further (primary) source validation through the editors of 365gay.com. At this point I am satisfied that these facts have been verified through multiple sources and am putting them back in the article. If necessary, I will dig out the newspaper articles from 1975 in which the original statements were made, though I do not believe that such an effort is required by any reasonable standard.
