Reverts
[edit]King Turtle, do not censor my information under the guise of a revert.--AI 09:45, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- King Turtle explained his revert, it was not unfounded so I am taking back this personal comment that I directed at King Turtle. --AI 21:49, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

What content are you disputing?--AI 22:46, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Irmgard, this was one of the first articles I wrote and regrettably I didn't log the references I used. (Some of them were government documents, btw) I believe others who are familiar with the subject can also verify that this article does not contain innacuracies. Give me time and I will try to reference EVERYTHING written in this article. You can help verify it if you search for Gottlieb plus keywords in google.com. --AI 21:42, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
Colonel?
[edit]"Perhaps the timely death of Col Gottlieb. opened the door." - Col. L. Fletcher Prouty [1] Was Sidney Gottlieb a Colonel? --AI 23:34, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
- He was never in the military, although his civilian rank would be equivalent to that of a Colonel or higher.--208.52.112.70 02:46, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
Citations
[edit]This article is in need of good citations to back up its many assertions— Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.177.12.102 (talk • contribs) 23:09, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
QJ/WIN?
[edit]Gottlieb was not QJ/WIN! Accoriding to the Church Committe, Agent QJ/WIN was a foreign agent with a criminal background under Bill Harvey's Executive Action Program ZR/Rifle. The agent's name was never disclosed as per intelligence doctrine of keeping sources secret.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.88.178.70 (talk • contribs) 23:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Vietnam
[edit]"Less known was an operation within the CIA's Phoenix Program in Vietnam where a team of CIA psychologists performed mind control experiments on NLF suspects being detained at Bien Hoa Prison outside of Saigon. Through electrode implants in the brain, the prisoners were manipulated to attack each other with knives. The experiment was a failure and the prisoners were shot and their bodies burned." - is there any proof of this? Schrandit 06:54, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
- @Schrandit: Ten years later, a portion of this remains uncited. I cannot verify, so I am going to remove it. - Location (talk) 03:44, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
Criminal Prosecution? War Crimes? Crimes Against Humanity?
[edit]What's the academic significance of identifying his religion in the first line? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.244.116.61 (talk) 16:07, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

On a lighter note
[edit]My parents were friends of the Gottliebs and folk danced at the Gottlieb's home for many years. Syd and his wife hosted the folk dance parties in their house just outside of Vienna, VA., home to another notorious intelligence community member, Robert Hansen. These parties all took place from about 1964-1975. Sometime in the mid 70's the folk dance club disbanded and my parents lost contact with the Gottliebs. When the story of the LSD experiments broke in the media, there was disbelief that Syd could have been involved much less the mastermind. Apparently he was a very sociable and likeable person - nothing like how he was described in the press. 129.83.31.1 (talk) 03:41, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
more info needed
[edit]particularly "early years" and "final or retirement" years could use a bunch of work Ooma Huntress-Protectress (talk) 03:23, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

The picture is not good. Please replace - easily found
[edit]There are two very good pictures one should us instead. One in 3/4 pose when he retired in '75 and next to his lawyer in '77. You get a much better sense of what he looked like. Aperer1 (talk) 18:32, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
And the picture is certainly not from '77 when he testified before congress. He was about 55 then. Wrong pic. Aperer1 (talk) 18:39, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
