Accuracy
editIn attempting to find citations and sources to add to this article, I honestly can't find very many reliable sources for a lot of what's written. Some tales are repeated from book to book (mostly from very small publishers or sort of 'books of local tales') but don't provide sources for their claims.
I think this article needs some serious re-writing to make it much more clear what elements are tall tales or legends, and more research into who Kitty LeRoy was and did. For instance, did she actually own the saloon, or was she renting? Did she work primarily as a dancer at the time of her death, or as a gambler? Sources differ a lot, and without much clarity.

- Replying to myself, but just to let people know - I'm going to be working on revamping this article based on numerous reliable sources. Fluorescent Jellyfish (talk) 03:25, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
