Talk:Operation Snow White

Here are some open tasks to complete this article: Untitled Former Snow White operatives, and their affiliations with Scientology after the affair Unindicted co-conspirators, including L. Ron Hubbard and Kendrick Moxon Add information about convicted individuals (their specific roles within Scientology, what are they doing now, duration of sentences, etc. : Mary Sue Hubbard, Cindy Raymond, Gerald Bennett Wolfe, Henning Heldt, Duke Snider, Gregory Willardson, Richard Weigand, Mitchell Herman, Sharon Thomas, Jane Kember, and Mo Budlong Those who pled guilty were not "convicted."

In a US Court of Law, if you've pled guilty to a criminal offense, you are then convicted by that court, same as a jury verdict. You will have a criminal conviction on your record. If you pled no contest and sought an Adjudication with Contemplation of Dismissal, or otherwise deferred adjudication, then yes you can avoid a conviction. That is not the case here. Guilty vs Convicted--Shibbolethink (♔ ♕) 14:25, 28 April 2016 (UTC) Integrate into the article Scientology's explanation of why they were naming the overall program "Snow White" and dubbing individual targets associated names such as "Witch", "Stepmother", "Prince", "Maiden", "Shoes", "Sleepy", "Bashful", etc. [1]

Michael Meisner wasn't employed at the IRS

The article states Gerald Wolfe and Michael Meisner were able to gain employment as clerks, but Wolfe was the only one employed there. The source article does not indicate Meisner was also employed there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.247.69.220 (talk) 11:42, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

What happened to the 4,990 other operatives?

The opening paragraph mentions 5,000 "operatives".

The article only discusses a dozen or so "operatives".

What were the rest of the "operatives" up to? Who they were?

[Thank you. I deem this an important article/subject, not the "low importance" that various metrics appear to deem it.]

If you're interested in finding out, perhaps rummage through the FBI files which have been posted online somewhere. There's also this https://vault.fbi.gov/church-of-scientology on the FBI's website. When you find out, then come back and edit this Wikipedia article.

An "importance tag" is based on its value to a whole topic in an encyclopedia, such as how important a particular sub-topic is for someone to understand the main topic. If someone was wanting to learn a bit about "What is Scientology?", then Operation Snow White would not be anywhere near the top of the list. It's part of the history of Scientology. As someone digs deeper, the Op Snow While might become more important to read about. The meaning of an importance tag is NOT that the information is of little importance, but that it is a mid- or low-priority article for a group of Wikipedia editors to focus on completing or enhancing for the overall topic of "Scientology" (or "Crime" or "Espionage" or "United States" — the other Wikiprojects tagged on this article). That said, there's nothing stopping anyone from updating this article if they so choose. Editors usually work on something that interests them. Grorp (talk) 06:58, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

Alverzo

"Alverzo" appears 4 times in this article, all in one paragraph. Apparently he can pick locks, but there is no further context given (e.g. full name, introduction, role in the operation, relationship to others here). HyperCube03 (talk) 23:35, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

I added a footnote with citation, and added similar footnotes for a few more of the "players" on that page.   ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 04:58, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
