Medium is not a reliable source

This draft heavily cites posts from a self-published blog on Medium. As per WP:MEDIUM, Medium posts aren't reliable unless made by a subject matter expert, and I can't find any information on the blog's author indicating that he is one.

The posts about Worthy Park all appear to be based on one book: Craton, Michael; Walvin, James (1970). A Jamaica Plantation: The History of Worthy Park 1670–1970. Toronto: University of Toronto Press. ISBN 1487596499. I'd recommending borrowing a copy of the book and replacing the Medium refs with refs to the book.

Sure. I am familiar with Javaun Francis from Books, Rum, And Then Some as well as his business running Louisiana Cane Spirits, but I do agree that getting the info right from the source would be ideal. Will go back and change the citations to be from the direct source. 𝟏𝟎𝐚𝐫𝐭𝟏 ^talk 00:45, 28 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
