The picture attached to this article appears to be of Carrot Top. Can someone fix that? 65.207.2.2 21:40, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Other than using the movie JFK, what is the source of this info? It should be removed immediately without citation:
All I've heard about Jack Martin was that he was a schizophrenic alcoholic with a verifiable record of lots of time in jail and mental institutions. The story is that he would get mad at someone and then call everybody he could think of incessantly to tell incriminating stories. This article invokes his rantings at face value and reads like conspiracy theory tabloid BS. MrG 4.228.21.139 ( talk) 21:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
I've tagged this article as NPOV because the majority of cited references are to a conspiracy text which does not qualify as a reliable source under Wikipedia rules. These should be removed and replaced with more reliable sources. An encyclopedia should not rely on such a book for its primary source. Gamaliel ( talk) 18:24, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

As Banister has no notability outside his involvement in the Shaw trial. I suggest creating a new article called "Persons related to the Shaw trial" or something to that effect, and merging this article into it along with the ones on Ferrie, Russo, Martin, etc. Any opposition? Ramsquire (throw me a line) 23:01, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
This article should be merged with the People involved in the trial of Clay Shaw article. Article fail WP:BIO as it does not establish sufficient notability to warrant a stand alone article. Further the contents of the article fail both WP:RS and WP:NPOV. Ramsquire (throw me a line) 18:17, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Guy Bannister is a notable individual, as he was a murder suspect in the JFK assassination and was investigated by both District Attorney Jim Garrison and the U.S. House Select Committee on Assassination (HSCA). Additional sources have been added to the article that pass WP:RS and WP:NPOV standards, including a primary source: the U.S. House Select Committee on Assassinations report. Mark Tracy ( talk) 03:31, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
I scanned an image of Guy Bannister Associates, Inc. Yellow Pages advertisement from the 1959 New Orleans Telephone Directory. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Guy_bannister_1959_advertisement.png I do not know how to incorporate this into the article. If anyone has the expertise and the interest, please feel free. -- Kpedsea ( talk) 12:39, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
Much of this article is clearly lifted from John Simkin's site https://spartacus-educational.com/JFKbannister.htm
I compared the two articles using an online tool and found that 43% of the text is verbatim copied from Simkin.
At the very least, Simkin should be credited as a source and his article should be linked. BTercero ( talk) 03:53, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
