Is this person notable enough to publish?

LloydTaylor1 (talk) 05:52, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please read
original research, so you might read: Wikipedia:No original research. Since this person would not qualify as notable enough to have an article about him, what you might do is create a history section in the Hawkins County, Tennessee article. All statements made about a person have to be verifiable. -Uyvsdi (talk) 18:12, 2 October 2010 (UTC)Uyvsdi[reply

Looking for feedback and a review. Thanks!

The article's brief but nicely done :) It doesn't even sound like an advertisement like many company articles similar to yours do, which is excellent, so I can't even suggest that needs to be improved! You might want to consider expanding the article or maybe adding more references, but really I think it's fine.

Jonathan Goldman

I've edited the Jonathan Goldman article again based on GB Fan's critique and would like some new feedback. Thanks.

Hello there, Cda3001! :) Good work on the article. However, I think the critique is just, and we'll need to improve the article's style to make sure it's appropriate for Wikipedia. Let's see..

I hope these comments will be of use to you. :) Cordially, → Clementina [ Scribble ] 07:00, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Miss spider apps

An overview of the Miss Spider apps for iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch


New page for review

Jboud (talk) 17:10, 2 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Apps in Series" is unreferenced.
"Modes of Play" goes into too much detail, and is mostly unreferenced; see
reliable sources
.
"Reception" contains a couple of external links; they should not be in the body-text (and should probably just be removed) - see
WP:EL
.
The three "Link to purchase" are inappropriate, spam. See
WP:EL.  Chzz  ►  20:14, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply

David James (South African Actor)

I just cannot figure out how to list a reference once and then include it in more than one spot in the article. I have one reference listed three times; if someone could just clean up this part of the article, that would be greatly appreciated!

It looks like you figured out named references for yourself.
However, I've no idea what http://152.111.1.88/ is, and I don't think it is a
reliable source. Same for blogs, downloads, and so on. You need references to better sources, such as published newspapers; something with a 'reputation for fact-checking and accuracy'.  Chzz  ►  20:17, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply

Dario Campanile Notable Persons Biography

Hello there...am working on getting a completed page up for master painter, Dario Campanile and am having trouble with the quality and alignment of the images. The quality in particular is weird...looks just fine on the wikicommons page, but nearly unrecognizable when inserted into the article.

The images is my primary issue, but of course I'd appreciate any feedback on the other aspects of the article as well (notability/verifiability, etc.) if you have time/interest. Don't want it to get deleted! :)

Not sure why the thumbnails are broken, so I've reported it in Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#Thumbnails incorrect.
Otherwise...the article relies far too much on IMDB, discogs, and listings in sites selling the things; those are not appropriate independent, reliable sources. (Well, there is considerable debate over IMDB, but it certainly shouldn't be relied on for 'profile' type information).
There are also problems with
neutrality, and there are unreferenced claims, e.g. Campanile's work is noted for its intense realism and the sincerity of his surrealistic exploration.[according to whom?] His works have been shown in both solo and group exhibitions around the world,[citation needed] most recently as one of the 85 artists chosen for the multi-media art exhibition entitled, The Missing Peace: Artists Consider the Dalai Lama.[citation needed

Hello-- This is my first article. Short and heavily footnoted. I wanted to make sure I had followed all of your guidelines well.

Also, I had originated the article in my Userpage, then had to change the title when I finally found out that the name in the Articles of Incorporation is, indeed, The Poetry Forum, Inc., instead of Poetry Forum. I accidentally saved the new titled article under the "live" spot. So I need to delete my old article.

Finally, I have a second article in my Userspace that I'm still working on and which I'll send to you shortly on Rhino Poetry.

Thanks and best regards, Ann aka Tuttitalia

External links are better formatted as, for example, [http://www.google.com This is Google] which appears as: This is Google. I fixed the two in this article.
See
WP:CHEATSHEET
.
I added it to a couple of categories.
I removed the 'unreviewed' tag.
It would be helpful if you could add more details to the references. For example, "The writer" - I do not know what this is. I guess it is a magazine or something...could you add the publisher and their location, and preferably the ISSN if there is one, so that people can locate it to check the facts.  Chzz  ►  20:34, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
(
notability criteria for organizations. The article needs to satisfy at least one of them. Without sources showing that The Poetry Forum, Inc. has received significant reliable independent coverage, it is at risk of deletion. Karenjc 20:42, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply
