@FortunateSons: I would recommend changing "using a women’s passport" to "using a false passport". Sources say it was a false passport with a bogus identity; not the passport of an existing woman. Polygnotus (talk) 17:21, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That’s a good point; according to Tablet, it’s a women’s passport, and as confidentals says it’s a false passport, I would suggest changing it into “using a forged women’s passport”. What do you think? FortunateSons (talk) 17:31, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps "as a female, using a bogus identity"? I am no expert in this area. I will ping @WhatamIdoing: who knows more about this kinda stuff than me. My gut says that any passport she owns is automatically a woman's passport (but my gut is not trustworthy and I do not respect the English language). The idea is that it was a fake identity of someone who does not exist. Polygnotus (talk) 11:05, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@FortunateSons: I have no judgement, and if I did I would not trust it. I mostly focus my energy on being cute, not on being right. Polygnotus (talk) 12:51, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also quite valid pursuits if you ask me. If you prefer: I like your suggestion FortunateSons (talk) 12:55, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that the gender on the passport is relevant. What matters is that it was forged. I would just shorten it to "forged passport". WhatamIdoing (talk) 17:21, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That seems reasonable, thank you :) FortunateSons (talk) 17:24, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Perfect, thank you. The easiest solutions are often the best. Polygnotus (talk) 17:30, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This wikipedia article seems to rely heavily on a few articles that summarize Frank's memoirs. Are there any other sources that confirm her story? (Or perhaps I missed the part in the articles that includes some verification of her claims?) Rainsage (talk) 05:15, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is indeed an issue. Some claims (like her work for Israeli intelligence) is independently verified, and some are plausible based on statements or observations of journalists, most notably and not yet included this written by him. This is unfortunately the nature of stories about lower level intelligence people, they can be notable and yet not notable enough for an official government enquiry or to have their cover publicly blown, which are often the two only ways to get fully uncorrelated coverage.

where were her claims of working for mossad independently verified? i tried googling but couldn't find anything. Rainsage (talk) 05:50, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
the lobster article is another source that relies heavily on her memoirs and does not independently verify her story. also, lobster seems to be a niche journal about conspiracy theories, based on the wikipedia article about it. Rainsage (talk) 05:51, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Lobster (magazine) is definitely a complicated source for a case like this, having both actual investigative content and more conspiratorial stories. However, there are multiple contributions that can be cited reasonably safely IMO, particularly in cases where the writer is a subject-matter expert or journalist, which the latter is here. Do you disagree? FortunateSons (talk) 07:42, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My first request at RSN didn't get any feedback, I will try for a second one just in case. FortunateSons (talk) 07:46, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
