Editing Bonnie Rychlak Draft Page[edit]

While I appreciate your feedback, I'm still at a loss to understand the sole criteria you are applying for notability for an artist, which is providing links to collections in public institutions. I have several problems with this criteria. First, this is the first time I'm hearing of it. It seems rather arbitrary. Second, there are literally hundreds of Wikipedia pages for artists that don't meet this standard. Perhaps not coincidentally, the majority of these are pages for male artists. I undertook the task of writing this entry based on my own assessment (as an internationally recognized and widely published art historian)of the notability of this individual. Moreover, I am answering the call of the Women Artist Project to narrow the gap between pages on Wikipedia for male and female artists. Also, Rychlak is notable for her role as both artist and curator. Her role as a leading authority on the Japanese American artist Isamu Noguchi with an extensive list of exhibitions and publications alone is noteworthy. I would really like to get this entry before someone from the Women Artist Project, who I believe would be positioned to provide the best feedback on this article. Would you be able to advise as to how that could be done? Thank you. Gaw54 (talk) 23:44, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am part of the Women in Red Project. One of the criteria for WP:NARTIST is having works in public collections, museums etc. Rychlak meets this critera, but you had no sources to support the collections, add those and I can accept the draft. Theroadislong (talk) 05:50, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Trinity Saioo[edit]

Thanks For The Comment, I have Added because there should not any mistake. Pediabywiki (talk) 16:44, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cindy Ji Hye Kim[edit]

Thank you very much for reviewing this page. Is there anything I can do to get the title unprotected (and approved)? Diaeinsofa (talk) 16:22, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It will need an admin's attention, I don't know why it was protected initially. Theroadislong (talk) 17:05, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Diaeinsofa I have requested it be unprotected at WP:Requests for page protection/Decrease#Cindy Ji Hye Kim. TRIS, it might be good idea for you post a note there concurring the draft is acceptable. S0091 (talk) 17:24, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That was quick. Have at it TRIS! S0091 (talk) 17:34, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you both for your help! Is there anything else I can do to move this forward? Diaeinsofa (talk) 12:50, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello[edit]

Hi, sorry could you make your explanation more simple, I am not a smart person and I apologize for that. Theduckguy (talk) 17:50, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft User:Theduckguy/sandbox has zero independent, reliable sources and that is what we base articles on, content like "Thedu_ckguy is an emerging social media influencer known for his presence on various platforms including Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok." is fine on social media but this is an encyclopaedia. Once newspapers and magazines start reporting on him/you, there is the possibility of an article in the future, but not yet. Theroadislong (talk) 18:13, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Feedback[edit]

Hi there, I appreciate you look through my submission. I was just wondering could you give me some feedback and what I can do to improve my chances of my article being accepted. Is it the sources I'm using? I'm very new to this so any help would be greatly appreciated. Take care, Martynlukeact (talk) 09:35, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lisa Frank[edit]

At the Help Desk, you wrote "If Lisa Frank passes WP:NARTIST you could start an article ...". That's a bit confusing. If it's the same Lisa Frank, there's no need to start an article. If a different one, it's a mistake to link to her article. (I don't know whether they're the same). Maproom (talk) 09:09, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

India Art Festival page created by me was rejected. After that it was edited and made nutral but it was rejected again.

India Art Festival is the only art fair in India happening in four cities and founded by the people associated with oldest public institutions. The content in page supported by well known newspapers in India is not a paid content by the event. Even if Google search is done on India Art Festival, you will find thousands of entries on this public event for emerging and young artists.

I do not have aurgument on rejection as it is for wikipedia to decide but this is arbitary and unjustified rejection. India Art Festival is public event and do not need advertisement on wikipedia. RAKL85 (talk) 15:11, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft Draft:India Art Festival was declined not rejected, The Times of India is not considered to be a reliable source, perhpas you could find better sources? Theroadislong (talk) 15:14, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi[edit]

As you mentioned, The Times of India is not a reliable source. I have seen 'Waluscha De Sousa' has most of the resources of The Times of India on her Wikipedia. Harwant Singh Arora (talk) 07:28, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See other stuff exists. Theroadislong (talk) 07:53, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Kerstin Preiwuß[edit]

Hello Theroadislong,

thank you for your comment on my draft.

According to WP:NWRITER, the creative professional is supposed to have won "significant critical attention". A nomination for the the German Book Prize is considered highly prestigious in the German speaking literature community and there are always lots of mentionings of the fact in the media following such a nomination. Also, the Eichendorff Prize and the prizes of the Deutsche Schillerstiftung are very reputable. So, doesn't that identify the author as notable?

Takeru Watanabe (talk) 19:24, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not at all sure that Draft:Kerstin Preiwuß meets the criteria at WP:NWRITER, it's not clear to me that the nomination and prizes are notable in Wikipedia terms, so I have left it for another reviewer to have a look. Theroadislong (talk) 20:39, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much for your answer and your support! Takeru Watanabe (talk) 20:48, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IMDB[edit]

Hi there

I am not leaving imdb as a source but just as a matter of interest for the work that the company has done. Is this allowed?

Karinvanderlaag (talk) 15:50, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I just commented because IMDB will be ignored when reviewing. We also don't reviewer remove comments. Theroadislong (talk) 16:44, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arlene Lien Personal Life[edit]

hey how are you doin!


so for the personal life part, they dont want the kids to know about the whole surrogacy thing as the family wishes for it to be private. Are you okay with leaving that part out? Antwan123123 (talk) 06:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a conflict of interest here? The content is in the public domain and was well sourced. Theroadislong (talk) 06:58, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I’m a family friend. I’m being told the family does not wish to let the kids know about their surrogacy on social media and wishes to tell their kids in private when the time is right. I understand the article about the kids is public news but they should learn about it from their parents, not the internet, hence why I deleted it. I hope you understand 2603:8000:C33E:B968:8053:2894:B4B:618A (talk) 07:28, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Martin Burckhardt[edit]

Hello,

I've added the references which were missing in my previous article. That's why I deleted your maintenance template and requested a review for publication. DXK34 (talk) 07:43, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We don't delete comments, you are free however to click the re-submit button at Draft:Martin Burckhardt (architect). Theroadislong (talk) 07:46, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is no such a button. DXK34 (talk) 07:51, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Because your edits removed it! I have added it back for you. Theroadislong (talk) 07:53, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I've found it now. Thank you and sorry. DXK34 (talk) 08:00, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your help. DXK34 (talk) 18:10, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 08:31:57, 11 May 2024 for assistance on AfC submission by TwentyTwilve[edit]


But the page already exists? TwentyTwilve (talk) 08:31, 11 May 2024 (UTC) TwentyTwilve (talk) 08:31, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes TwentyTwilve! Here it is Fabiana Palladino, so why are you creating a draft? Theroadislong (talk) 08:52, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The existing article is about an album, whereas the draft seems to be about the artist (somewhat confusingly, by the same name). I only twigged that when I noticed that TwentyTwilve had recently wikilinked the artist's name in the album article. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:58, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is also another draft here Draft:Fabiana Palladino (album), very confusing! Theroadislong (talk) 09:02, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If a person article is notable then the album needs to be moved to (album) and a person article created, which is what I drafted. TwentyTwilve (talk) 09:14, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It all comes from me clicking on a link in Personal Life of Pino Palladino which went to his daughter’s album not the person TwentyTwilve (talk) 09:17, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TwentyTwilve: possibly, but not necessarily. And that still doesn't mean you should create new Draft:Fabiana Palladino (album) when an article on that subject already exists. And certainly not by copypasting the contents from that existing article. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:17, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re William Hammerton Smith[edit]

Fair comment about 'exclusive' and 'prestigious' - I shall remove the word(s) altogether Thanks for the contribution. Nigel PG Dale (talk) 09:09, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sound engineer's page - Oleg Chechik.[edit]

Hi! I've edited the page many times. I have added links as required by the rules from known sources. But the page keeps getting rejected. They write that supposedly I do it for money, but NO, I do it on my own initiative, I don't work with wikipedia for money! But the people who reject a page that I've been trying to create for over a year, then they write to me in private messages with offers to create a page for money! Where is justice?????
