Wikipedia's article on Robert Graves, the poet and author of The White Goddess, is a community edited reference page rather than a peer reviewed publication. It is reliable for standard biographical facts such as his life and major works, and less reliable for evaluating the scholarly standing of his more speculative mythological theories, which classicists and folklorists have generally treated as poetic invention rather than established history. Use it for basic biography; a claim built on Graves's own mythological arguments needs independent scholarly verification.
