Hello, welcome to your New Page Patrol School page! Every person I instruct will have their own page on which I will give them support and tasks for them to complete. Please make sure you have this page added to your watchlist. Your NPP School page has been specifically designed according to you and what you have requested instruction in - for that reason, please be as specific as possible when under my instruction, so that I know the best ways to help you (and do not be afraid to let me know if you think something isn't working).
Make sure you read through Wikipedia:Notability as that's the knowledge which most of the questions I ask you and tasks you do will revolve around.
This page will be built up over your time in the Academy, with new sections being added as you complete old ones. Each section will end with a task, written in bold type - this might just ask a question, or it might require you to go and do something. You can answer a question by typing the answer below the task; if you have to do something, you will need to provide diffs to demonstrate that you have completed the task. Some sections will have more than one task, sometimes additional tasks may be added to a section as you complete them. Please always sign your responses to tasks as you would on a talk page.
If both the instructor and student make completing the course curriculum a top priority, it will generally take around a month to go through the entirety of the curriculum. This pace is not required or necessarily expected, but rather is provided in order to give participants an idea of what to expect.
PART 1
When patrolling or reviewing an article, you may often come across articles do not meet the WP:N guidelines, but the editors make the edits in good faith. Please read WP:AGF and do not WP:BITE the new editors.
1. In your own words, why it is important to WP:AGF and not WP:BITE new editors.
Answer: Wikipedia was conceived, built, and grown on the premise of honest individuals valuing the creation of a freely available knowledge resource and devoting sufficient time and energy to learning how to make useful contributions—both in new content and administrative functions. Individuals become new contributors for a wide variety of reasons, whether merely as part of a class assignment or on the mistaken assumption that they can promote their company. However, all those who take the first step have the potential to become a substantive contributor, even if their initial efforts are trivial or misguided, and even if they don’t come back to Wikipedia for several years. Having specific policies re AGF/BIT is essential because even simply non-communicative interactions can reasonably be interpreted as hostile and dismissive, and the threshold for deterring a newcomer's further contribution is not very high. More broadly, benevolence toward others is a matter of the proper application of the principle of justice.
2. In your own words, how does notability is defined in Wikipedia?
Answer: Notability is a standard (genus) for the inclusion of a topic on Wikipedia as its own article or as an entry on a list (differentia); the standard is applied both through general guidelines and through contextual, domain-specific criteria. The primary guideline is founded on three tests: 1) significant coverage by 2) reliable, 3) independent sources (each of which embodies its own standards, i.e., verifiable, secondary sources). Domain-specific criteria (“Subject specific notability guidelines”) are developed and used when there are a large number of prospective entities or topics for inclusion whose details vary along a continuum of notability e.g., films, organizations, politicians, professors, geographical features. (Assessment of notability may thus require subject area expertise or further research if sources are not provided.) Wikipedia further defines notability by exclusion (by selectivity criteria or differentiation by Wikimedia projects), and by example (ostensive).
3. Does a step by step instructions on how to "Change a car tire" considered a notable topic in Wikipedia?
Answer: No. WP:NOT i.e., not an instruction manual. (However, it is plausible that such content might be subsumed as an exemplar on a page about instructional techniques.)
4. What are the differences between A WP:GNG and a specific notability guidelines? how do we determine which one to use when patrolling an article?
Answer: The GNG functions as a starting point for a potentially unlimited range of entities and concepts: from farm implements, to medical diagnosis, to mythical beings, to obscure physical phenomena. As per the definition, GNGs focus on the existence of significant reliable, verifiable, independent secondary sources, but also the appropriateness for the Wikipedia platform. On the other hand, SNGs address specific umbrella concepts, e.g., sports, through further subdivision into well-established fields, such as baseball, golf, sumo, etc., in which consensus is then used to develop a set of criteria or stipulations for notability. However, in some cases, criteria falls back on similar basic premises as in GNGs, e.g., that coverage of an athlete exceeds the routine, expected level for a typical participant. While domains covered by SNGs will almost certainly increase as Wikipedia is enhanced, currently there are only twelve and the number is likely to remain fairly limited. Thus, it is reasonable for a page reviewer to be aware of all the SNG domains and refer to them when encountering pages where there is any uncertainty as to their notability. (At some point, the page creation process could provide for guided or automated categorization and thus prompt editors/reviewers with the appropriate SNG.)
5. If an editor creates an article about "2024 Summer Olympics" in 2019 without providing any sources, is the subject considered not notable and why?
Answer: It is still notable. "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article." This example is both ostensibly notable (as a continuum of an established, notable series) and explicitly notable as part of the WP:NSPORT SNG. (Even Olympic sub-events are presumed notable.) This example also passes WP:N(E)#Future events.
6. A New York city based 2019 start up software company , specializing in data mining, has just received a USD 200K investor fund.
Answer: The brief background of this question implies that there is no specific coverage or further criteria to establish notability, so no, based on "No inherent notability" / WP:ORGSIG.
7. Nascimento Ferreira who is a Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) fighters with the undefeated mixed martial arts record of 8-1.
Answer: According to NMMA#1 he ("Ze Colmia") is deemed notable as he has fought at least three fights within the UFC. (Interestingly, he doesn’t seem to have a page.)
8. A upcoming action drama title "Suleiman the Great" based on the the life of Suleiman the Magnificent, was reported will be in production in December 2020 and to be released on August 2022 in the cinemas.
Answer: Generally not; according to WP:NFF Ph3, even though the film is presumably in production it "should generally not have [its] own article unless the production is notable…" (Incidentally, I think the guidance in WP:NFF is logically reversed. The 3rd Ph is the broader statement. The first paragraph, by negation, implies the opposite guidance.)
9. A political candidates, without any previous or current political position, who is running for November 2020 election for a Senator position in United States with multiple local newspapers coverage of his candidacy.
Answer: Within WP:NPOL, the candidate would likely be notable based on GNG as directed by the SNG. (The prolog to the questions says not to consider the sources.)
10. A singer who self produced his first album in May 2019 and his songs are listed in
Spotify.
Answer: Within WP:ENT there is no basis for the singer in this example to be deemed notable.
Answer: Alós-Ferrer is notable on WP:NPROF #5, His academic position as the NOMIS Professor for Decision and Neuroeconomics Theory is a named, endowed position and WP:NPROF #8, he is editor in chief of a journal in his field. If those criteria were not present, it might be worth assessing whether his work met #1 (Impact in Discipline) or #7 (Impact outside academics).
12.
Alistair Overeem
Answer: He is notable under NKICK #1,. Fought for a world title of a major organization (in this case several). NKICK #1 at least three professional fights; #2, Fought for the highest title of a top-tier MMA organization; Probably #3, Sherdog rating – but I would have to research what his ranking meant.
13. Jennifer Lopez
Answer: She is notable under WP:SINGER #1, Multiple, non-trivial published works, etc.; #2, Singles or albums on national charts (Approx 25+); #3, Has a record certified gold; And all the subsequent categories, except for perhaps #6 which is ensemble membership. She is also notable under:
14.
Three Mile Island accident
Answer: The event is notable under WP:EVENTCRIT:
15.
Persepolis
Answer: The location is notable under WP:GEOFEAT, Artificial feature officially assigned the status of cultural heritage or national heritage. It could also be notable under WP:GEOLAND, “Even abandon places can be notable because notability encompassed their entire history.” The city is legally recognized in the current context as historical/tourism cite but also previously as a capital of Achaemenid Empire. Thus, even if the ruin was no longer physically present, it might still be notable.

Topic | Explanation | 5 Examples | Comment by Cass |
---|---|---|---|
Reliable source | Use of reliable sources is one of the pillars of Wikipedia’s credibility. The term source can mean the work, the creator, or the publisher and standards for reliability can apply to each of them. In practice, the content from a source is published information that also meets additional standards of verifiability and independence. In other words, it can be accessed by others and is created by authors who don’t have a conflict of interest. The standard for what constitutes “reliable” falls along a continuum of quality and the criteria varies both with the subject matter and with the type of source, and thus specific guidance is provided for categories such as academic works and news organizations. While the presentation of information on Wikipedia must be from a neutral point of view, the sources may, and often do, embody a bias | ||
User generated sources | User generated sources are generally platforms that allow individuals to post content, thus they essentially are aggregations of unvetted/unreliable self-published content. This category includes social media sites, forums, wikis, or personal history sites. Self-published content on a specific subject by an established subject matter expert may be reliable. Autobiographical content should not be used for a a living person. | ||
Non Independent source | Non-independent sources are sources which have a stake or vested interest in the content and thus may inherently embody a biased viewpoint. It conceptually overlaps with some self-published sources. Such sources include press releases, special promotional sections in magazines, local newspapers dependent on ad revenue from their news subjects. Such sources can be used when attributing/quoting statements to authors, i.e., presented as an assertion rather than as a statement of fact. Syndicated stories can also represent a threat to independence as they are essentially the same story (same author) being offered by multiple outlets, and thus do not represent increased credibility as multiple sources. The non-independence of a source can be difficult to identify when a news source uses a press release as its own source. |
|
Type | Explanation | Sources (15 Primary ; 5 Secondary ; 5 Tertiary) | Comment by Cass |
---|---|---|---|
Primary | Primary sources generally represent first-hand accounts of events, ideas, opinions, etc., or research or analysis conducted by original researchers—and is thus less likely to be independent or neutral in point of view. Primary material may be acceptable in very delimited circumstances, including when the author’s work has been well-vetted, for verifiable descriptive statements of facts, or for direct quotes, such as a historic speech. Interpretations of such content should not be done by the editor (which would be original research) but rather should be drawn from further secondary sources |
|
|
Secondary | A secondary source is an interpretation, analysis, or synthesis of a primary(s) source by author(s) other than the original author(s). A source (book, etc.) can embody a combination of secondary and primary content. For example, analysis of others’ work combined with ones’ own experiences. Conversely, inclusion of unevaluated primary content/data from other sources (merely reprinting) in an otherwise secondary source does not itself confer on the content secondary source status. The goal is to establish, to the extent possible, a content creation process that intermediates both the primary source and the editor/wikipedian by requiring that evaluative, analytic, synthetic, etc., claims in articles come from reliable secondary sources. |
|
|
Tertiary |
Tertiary sources aggregate secondary or primary sources or other data or facts and generally lack independent commentary or analysis. The aggregation can be a structured compendium of advanced concepts, as in a science textbook, a summarization of other multiple research results, or simple facts such as weather or sports records. In some areas of research, secondary and tertiary sources overlap. Additionally, work such as bibliography might be merely a compendium (tertiary), or if inclusion in the list itself was based on analytic criteria, it could be secondary.
The policy statement notes that tertiary sources serve a limited role on Wikipedia in helping summarize other sources, evaluating due weight, or to assist in putting diverse or conflicting sources in context. The policy also states that as Wikipedia articles are by definition generally tertiary so may not be used as sources in other Wikipedia articles. An exception are Category:Wikipedia pages which do use other pages as primary sources, and one example might be these WP policy pages. (Thoughts/Sidenote: While each article’s content must be sourced on that page, the framework of topical subsections linking to main pages seems an example of the first state of Tertiary policy wherein content on a main page can serve to prioritize what is included in the other page's shorter topic-specific subsection. Also, if one were to consider the concept of “source” more broadly, the very nature of densely hyperlinked content creates implicit interdependencies, sometimes unrecognized. It’s certainly a matter of semantics and unnecessary to get into, but in an important sense, similar to object-oriented programming, a major design benefit of Wikipedia is the potential of leveraging other pages in ways that implicitly create a source/knowledge “reuse” and a provenance relationship.) |

History | Diary of an explorer | Biography written about the explorer | Database of locations the explore visited | |

Answer: The nature of Wikipedia as a platform with content created by volunteers who are not required or vetted to possess any specialized skills, requires that in most cases the content needs to be verifiable. Additionally, information in Wikipedia can be utilized in more diverse ways if the content comes from reliable, independent, and accessible sources as readers can not only check the accuracy but can pursue further information. In some cases (perhaps frequently), content can be verified but there are reasons to dispute other facets of the source (reliability, independence, or whether it is secondary or primary, etc.) and thus might be contested/rejected by other editors. Of course, verifiability principally applies to being able to assess if the content accurately represents a secondary source, not necessarily confirming that that source was accurate.
Answer: Wikipedia is generally a tertiary source and thus in most cases it is against policy to be used as a source. Content on pages needs to be properly backed by citations on that page. However, other Wikipedia pages can provide guidance to an editor as to what aspects of a topic are important to include and hyperlinking provides a means to offer further content while keeping the current topic/page concise.
Answer: A source (an individual) might have first-hand access to information but also might be a participant in an event or have a personal or financial stake in an event. For example, a doctor describes the experience of treating patients during a pandemic. A secondary source (reporter) would serve to confirm that the source was in fact a doctor who was in that circumstance and have notes or recordings from that the individual describing such events.
Answer: From a policy standpoint, a source can be independent merely by not having any conflict of interest, personal connection, motivation toward a bias, etc; independence primarily relates to the nature of relationship between the source and content. Reliability relates to individual or institutional reputation, professional skills, and/or processes to ensure accuracy. For example, a volunteer high school reporter with no experience might attend a speech given by a famous alumnus economist, yet egregiously misconstrue or misquote the speaker in an article in the school newspaper.

Answer: By Subject Specific Guidelines (people), David Petraeus became notable under Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Additional_criteria “Any Biography” standard #2, within the historical record of his field (US military) after his role in Iraq and notably skilled leadership in Mosul 2003-2004. He would subsequently be notable, also in the military history context, for leading the United States Central Command (all leaders of Central Command have pages). Petraeus also became notable under Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Basic_criteria for significant coverage in multiple secondary sources in articles about his life and military career (per citations in this exercise and others). Finally, he would be notable under Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Politicians_and_judges after appointment as Director of the CIA, which amounts to a "national…office."

Answer: Under subject specific guidelines for tennis players Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Tennis, Hingis seems to qualify in all the categories (even ATP in a mixed doubles). For example, in WTA Tour records she holds numerous rankings. Based on the above content—the exercise text, (five Grand Slam titles)—that would be criteria 3. She would also qualify under GNG for coverage per the above citations.
Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, interior designer, writer, and educator. Wright believed in designing structures that were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. His creative period spanned more than 70 years. He works includes The Guggenheim, swirling, snail-shaped museum in the middle of Manhattan. [1] [2] Fallingwater, which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture." [3] This is one of Wright's most famous private residences (completed 1937), was built for Mr. and Mrs. Edgar J. Kaufmann, Sr., at Mill Run, Pennsylvania. Constructed over a 30-foot waterfall, it was designed according to Wright's desire to place the occupants close to the natural surroundings. The house was intended to be more of a family getaway, rather than a live-in home. [4]

Re the fifth source (Tape Community Music and Film):
Answer: The actor has had one significant role in six episodes of a TV drama based in Ireland. By the subject specific guidelines #1 for entertainers Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Entertainers, he does not have sufficient work to be notable. His self-list other productions don’t appear to be themselves notable. Re guideline #2, there is no readily apparent fan base. Re Guideline #3, there is no indication or claim of contribution to field. The subject fails every criterion.

Answer: Williams meets the notability requirements for both Rugby League and Rugby Union. Under Rugby League he meets criteria 1 and 3. For Rugby Union, he meets criteria 1, 2, and 3. For example, NRL 2004 premierships, the Rugby World Cup in 2011 and 2015 and other Rugby Union European teams, and the 2016 Olympics. He looks like he would also be notable as a boxer under criteria 1 as a WBA International Champion, which would also imply he meets criteria #3 which is broader.

Answer: Kamlesh Bhatt does not appear to meet any Subject Specific Guidelines for people. It is interesting to note that there are no SSNG for many professions including people in the software development world, although he would still be unlikely to meet such criteria.
Hello, welcome to your New Page Patrol School page! Every person I instruct will have their own page on which I will give them support and tasks for them to complete. Please make sure you have this page added to your watchlist. Your NPP School page has been specifically designed according to you and what you have requested instruction in - for that reason, please be as specific as possible when under my instruction, so that I know the best ways to help you (and do not be afraid to let me know if you think something isn't working).
Make sure you read through Wikipedia:Notability as that's the knowledge which most of the questions I ask you and tasks you do will revolve around.
This page will be built up over your time in the Academy, with new sections being added as you complete old ones. Each section will end with a task, written in bold type - this might just ask a question, or it might require you to go and do something. You can answer a question by typing the answer below the task; if you have to do something, you will need to provide diffs to demonstrate that you have completed the task. Some sections will have more than one task, sometimes additional tasks may be added to a section as you complete them. Please always sign your responses to tasks as you would on a talk page.
If both the instructor and student make completing the course curriculum a top priority, it will generally take around a month to go through the entirety of the curriculum. This pace is not required or necessarily expected, but rather is provided in order to give participants an idea of what to expect.
PART 1
When patrolling or reviewing an article, you may often come across articles do not meet the WP:N guidelines, but the editors make the edits in good faith. Please read WP:AGF and do not WP:BITE the new editors.
1. In your own words, why it is important to WP:AGF and not WP:BITE new editors.
Answer: Wikipedia was conceived, built, and grown on the premise of honest individuals valuing the creation of a freely available knowledge resource and devoting sufficient time and energy to learning how to make useful contributions—both in new content and administrative functions. Individuals become new contributors for a wide variety of reasons, whether merely as part of a class assignment or on the mistaken assumption that they can promote their company. However, all those who take the first step have the potential to become a substantive contributor, even if their initial efforts are trivial or misguided, and even if they don’t come back to Wikipedia for several years. Having specific policies re AGF/BIT is essential because even simply non-communicative interactions can reasonably be interpreted as hostile and dismissive, and the threshold for deterring a newcomer's further contribution is not very high. More broadly, benevolence toward others is a matter of the proper application of the principle of justice.
2. In your own words, how does notability is defined in Wikipedia?
Answer: Notability is a standard (genus) for the inclusion of a topic on Wikipedia as its own article or as an entry on a list (differentia); the standard is applied both through general guidelines and through contextual, domain-specific criteria. The primary guideline is founded on three tests: 1) significant coverage by 2) reliable, 3) independent sources (each of which embodies its own standards, i.e., verifiable, secondary sources). Domain-specific criteria (“Subject specific notability guidelines”) are developed and used when there are a large number of prospective entities or topics for inclusion whose details vary along a continuum of notability e.g., films, organizations, politicians, professors, geographical features. (Assessment of notability may thus require subject area expertise or further research if sources are not provided.) Wikipedia further defines notability by exclusion (by selectivity criteria or differentiation by Wikimedia projects), and by example (ostensive).
3. Does a step by step instructions on how to "Change a car tire" considered a notable topic in Wikipedia?
Answer: No. WP:NOT i.e., not an instruction manual. (However, it is plausible that such content might be subsumed as an exemplar on a page about instructional techniques.)
4. What are the differences between A WP:GNG and a specific notability guidelines? how do we determine which one to use when patrolling an article?
Answer: The GNG functions as a starting point for a potentially unlimited range of entities and concepts: from farm implements, to medical diagnosis, to mythical beings, to obscure physical phenomena. As per the definition, GNGs focus on the existence of significant reliable, verifiable, independent secondary sources, but also the appropriateness for the Wikipedia platform. On the other hand, SNGs address specific umbrella concepts, e.g., sports, through further subdivision into well-established fields, such as baseball, golf, sumo, etc., in which consensus is then used to develop a set of criteria or stipulations for notability. However, in some cases, criteria falls back on similar basic premises as in GNGs, e.g., that coverage of an athlete exceeds the routine, expected level for a typical participant. While domains covered by SNGs will almost certainly increase as Wikipedia is enhanced, currently there are only twelve and the number is likely to remain fairly limited. Thus, it is reasonable for a page reviewer to be aware of all the SNG domains and refer to them when encountering pages where there is any uncertainty as to their notability. (At some point, the page creation process could provide for guided or automated categorization and thus prompt editors/reviewers with the appropriate SNG.)
5. If an editor creates an article about "2024 Summer Olympics" in 2019 without providing any sources, is the subject considered not notable and why?
Answer: It is still notable. "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article." This example is both ostensibly notable (as a continuum of an established, notable series) and explicitly notable as part of the WP:NSPORT SNG. (Even Olympic sub-events are presumed notable.) This example also passes WP:N(E)#Future events.
6. A New York city based 2019 start up software company , specializing in data mining, has just received a USD 200K investor fund.
Answer: The brief background of this question implies that there is no specific coverage or further criteria to establish notability, so no, based on "No inherent notability" / WP:ORGSIG.
7. Nascimento Ferreira who is a Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) fighters with the undefeated mixed martial arts record of 8-1.
Answer: According to NMMA#1 he ("Ze Colmia") is deemed notable as he has fought at least three fights within the UFC. (Interestingly, he doesn’t seem to have a page.)
8. A upcoming action drama title "Suleiman the Great" based on the the life of Suleiman the Magnificent, was reported will be in production in December 2020 and to be released on August 2022 in the cinemas.
Answer: Generally not; according to WP:NFF Ph3, even though the film is presumably in production it "should generally not have [its] own article unless the production is notable…" (Incidentally, I think the guidance in WP:NFF is logically reversed. The 3rd Ph is the broader statement. The first paragraph, by negation, implies the opposite guidance.)
9. A political candidates, without any previous or current political position, who is running for November 2020 election for a Senator position in United States with multiple local newspapers coverage of his candidacy.
Answer: Within WP:NPOL, the candidate would likely be notable based on GNG as directed by the SNG. (The prolog to the questions says not to consider the sources.)
10. A singer who self produced his first album in May 2019 and his songs are listed in
Spotify.
Answer: Within WP:ENT there is no basis for the singer in this example to be deemed notable.
Answer: Alós-Ferrer is notable on WP:NPROF #5, His academic position as the NOMIS Professor for Decision and Neuroeconomics Theory is a named, endowed position and WP:NPROF #8, he is editor in chief of a journal in his field. If those criteria were not present, it might be worth assessing whether his work met #1 (Impact in Discipline) or #7 (Impact outside academics).
12.
Alistair Overeem
Answer: He is notable under NKICK #1,. Fought for a world title of a major organization (in this case several). NKICK #1 at least three professional fights; #2, Fought for the highest title of a top-tier MMA organization; Probably #3, Sherdog rating – but I would have to research what his ranking meant.
13. Jennifer Lopez
Answer: She is notable under WP:SINGER #1, Multiple, non-trivial published works, etc.; #2, Singles or albums on national charts (Approx 25+); #3, Has a record certified gold; And all the subsequent categories, except for perhaps #6 which is ensemble membership. She is also notable under:
14.
Three Mile Island accident
Answer: The event is notable under WP:EVENTCRIT:
15.
Persepolis
Answer: The location is notable under WP:GEOFEAT, Artificial feature officially assigned the status of cultural heritage or national heritage. It could also be notable under WP:GEOLAND, “Even abandon places can be notable because notability encompassed their entire history.” The city is legally recognized in the current context as historical/tourism cite but also previously as a capital of Achaemenid Empire. Thus, even if the ruin was no longer physically present, it might still be notable.

Topic | Explanation | 5 Examples | Comment by Cass |
---|---|---|---|
Reliable source | Use of reliable sources is one of the pillars of Wikipedia’s credibility. The term source can mean the work, the creator, or the publisher and standards for reliability can apply to each of them. In practice, the content from a source is published information that also meets additional standards of verifiability and independence. In other words, it can be accessed by others and is created by authors who don’t have a conflict of interest. The standard for what constitutes “reliable” falls along a continuum of quality and the criteria varies both with the subject matter and with the type of source, and thus specific guidance is provided for categories such as academic works and news organizations. While the presentation of information on Wikipedia must be from a neutral point of view, the sources may, and often do, embody a bias | ||
User generated sources | User generated sources are generally platforms that allow individuals to post content, thus they essentially are aggregations of unvetted/unreliable self-published content. This category includes social media sites, forums, wikis, or personal history sites. Self-published content on a specific subject by an established subject matter expert may be reliable. Autobiographical content should not be used for a a living person. | ||
Non Independent source | Non-independent sources are sources which have a stake or vested interest in the content and thus may inherently embody a biased viewpoint. It conceptually overlaps with some self-published sources. Such sources include press releases, special promotional sections in magazines, local newspapers dependent on ad revenue from their news subjects. Such sources can be used when attributing/quoting statements to authors, i.e., presented as an assertion rather than as a statement of fact. Syndicated stories can also represent a threat to independence as they are essentially the same story (same author) being offered by multiple outlets, and thus do not represent increased credibility as multiple sources. The non-independence of a source can be difficult to identify when a news source uses a press release as its own source. |
|
Type | Explanation | Sources (15 Primary ; 5 Secondary ; 5 Tertiary) | Comment by Cass |
---|---|---|---|
Primary | Primary sources generally represent first-hand accounts of events, ideas, opinions, etc., or research or analysis conducted by original researchers—and is thus less likely to be independent or neutral in point of view. Primary material may be acceptable in very delimited circumstances, including when the author’s work has been well-vetted, for verifiable descriptive statements of facts, or for direct quotes, such as a historic speech. Interpretations of such content should not be done by the editor (which would be original research) but rather should be drawn from further secondary sources |
|
|
Secondary | A secondary source is an interpretation, analysis, or synthesis of a primary(s) source by author(s) other than the original author(s). A source (book, etc.) can embody a combination of secondary and primary content. For example, analysis of others’ work combined with ones’ own experiences. Conversely, inclusion of unevaluated primary content/data from other sources (merely reprinting) in an otherwise secondary source does not itself confer on the content secondary source status. The goal is to establish, to the extent possible, a content creation process that intermediates both the primary source and the editor/wikipedian by requiring that evaluative, analytic, synthetic, etc., claims in articles come from reliable secondary sources. |
|
|
Tertiary |
Tertiary sources aggregate secondary or primary sources or other data or facts and generally lack independent commentary or analysis. The aggregation can be a structured compendium of advanced concepts, as in a science textbook, a summarization of other multiple research results, or simple facts such as weather or sports records. In some areas of research, secondary and tertiary sources overlap. Additionally, work such as bibliography might be merely a compendium (tertiary), or if inclusion in the list itself was based on analytic criteria, it could be secondary.
The policy statement notes that tertiary sources serve a limited role on Wikipedia in helping summarize other sources, evaluating due weight, or to assist in putting diverse or conflicting sources in context. The policy also states that as Wikipedia articles are by definition generally tertiary so may not be used as sources in other Wikipedia articles. An exception are Category:Wikipedia pages which do use other pages as primary sources, and one example might be these WP policy pages. (Thoughts/Sidenote: While each article’s content must be sourced on that page, the framework of topical subsections linking to main pages seems an example of the first state of Tertiary policy wherein content on a main page can serve to prioritize what is included in the other page's shorter topic-specific subsection. Also, if one were to consider the concept of “source” more broadly, the very nature of densely hyperlinked content creates implicit interdependencies, sometimes unrecognized. It’s certainly a matter of semantics and unnecessary to get into, but in an important sense, similar to object-oriented programming, a major design benefit of Wikipedia is the potential of leveraging other pages in ways that implicitly create a source/knowledge “reuse” and a provenance relationship.) |

Answer: The nature of Wikipedia as a platform with content created by volunteers who are not required or vetted to possess any specialized skills, requires that in most cases the content needs to be verifiable. Additionally, information in Wikipedia can be utilized in more diverse ways if the content comes from reliable, independent, and accessible sources as readers can not only check the accuracy but can pursue further information. In some cases (perhaps frequently), content can be verified but there are reasons to dispute other facets of the source (reliability, independence, or whether it is secondary or primary, etc.) and thus might be contested/rejected by other editors. Of course, verifiability principally applies to being able to assess if the content accurately represents a secondary source, not necessarily confirming that that source was accurate.
Answer: Wikipedia is generally a tertiary source and thus in most cases it is against policy to be used as a source. Content on pages needs to be properly backed by citations on that page. However, other Wikipedia pages can provide guidance to an editor as to what aspects of a topic are important to include and hyperlinking provides a means to offer further content while keeping the current topic/page concise.
Answer: A source (an individual) might have first-hand access to information but also might be a participant in an event or have a personal or financial stake in an event. For example, a doctor describes the experience of treating patients during a pandemic. A secondary source (reporter) would serve to confirm that the source was in fact a doctor who was in that circumstance and have notes or recordings from that the individual describing such events.
Answer: From a policy standpoint, a source can be independent merely by not having any conflict of interest, personal connection, motivation toward a bias, etc; independence primarily relates to the nature of relationship between the source and content. Reliability relates to individual or institutional reputation, professional skills, and/or processes to ensure accuracy. For example, a volunteer high school reporter with no experience might attend a speech given by a famous alumnus economist, yet egregiously misconstrue or misquote the speaker in an article in the school newspaper.

Answer: By Subject Specific Guidelines (people), David Petraeus became notable under Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Additional_criteria “Any Biography” standard #2, within the historical record of his field (US military) after his role in Iraq and notably skilled leadership in Mosul 2003-2004. He would subsequently be notable, also in the military history context, for leading the United States Central Command (all leaders of Central Command have pages). Petraeus also became notable under Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Basic_criteria for significant coverage in multiple secondary sources in articles about his life and military career (per citations in this exercise and others). Finally, he would be notable under Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Politicians_and_judges after appointment as Director of the CIA, which amounts to a "national…office."

Answer: Under subject specific guidelines for tennis players Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Tennis, Hingis seems to qualify in all the categories (even ATP in a mixed doubles). For example, in WTA Tour records she holds numerous rankings. Based on the above content—the exercise text, (five Grand Slam titles)—that would be criteria 3. She would also qualify under GNG for coverage per the above citations.
Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, interior designer, writer, and educator. Wright believed in designing structures that were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. His creative period spanned more than 70 years. He works includes The Guggenheim, swirling, snail-shaped museum in the middle of Manhattan. [1] [2] Fallingwater, which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture." [3] This is one of Wright's most famous private residences (completed 1937), was built for Mr. and Mrs. Edgar J. Kaufmann, Sr., at Mill Run, Pennsylvania. Constructed over a 30-foot waterfall, it was designed according to Wright's desire to place the occupants close to the natural surroundings. The house was intended to be more of a family getaway, rather than a live-in home. [4]

Re the fifth source (Tape Community Music and Film):
Answer: The actor has had one significant role in six episodes of a TV drama based in Ireland. By the subject specific guidelines #1 for entertainers Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Entertainers, he does not have sufficient work to be notable. His self-list other productions don’t appear to be themselves notable. Re guideline #2, there is no readily apparent fan base. Re Guideline #3, there is no indication or claim of contribution to field. The subject fails every criterion.

Answer: Williams meets the notability requirements for both Rugby League and Rugby Union. Under Rugby League he meets criteria 1 and 3. For Rugby Union, he meets criteria 1, 2, and 3. For example, NRL 2004 premierships, the Rugby World Cup in 2011 and 2015 and other Rugby Union European teams, and the 2016 Olympics. He looks like he would also be notable as a boxer under criteria 1 as a WBA International Champion, which would also imply he meets criteria #3 which is broader.
