If you look at his edits, he's adding ASPRO chronology dating to articles which I don't see as a good idea. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ancient Near East#ASPRO chronology. Dougweller ( talk) 22:18, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
I made the changes you requested and added references. I'm not sure what to do now?? Is my article still under review? Osumggrad ( talk) 10:54, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Dear Reviewer,
Please explain in simple terms what I need to do to get this article published. I have made the recommended changes but still article is not published. Please advise.
Thank you.

Hiya, Terry Gene Bollea became Hulk Hogan. I cannot see that he was ever " Terry Hogan". My last two references refer to our Terry as "Terence Hogan" so the "lucky Tel" Hogan/Terence Hogan page should really be "Terry Hogan" without mentioning Hulk. Tom Pippens ( talk) 12:35, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

ACCORDING TO SOURCES CLOSE TO CHAUNCEY COOK HE USES THE SITE TO ATTRACT DONATIONS FOR HIS FUTURE ENDEAVOR FOR A COLLEGE EDUCATION. ACCORDING TO A FACE TO FACE INTERVIEW WITH CHAUNCEY HE PICKED OUT THE NAME EGAUMSWORLD FOR HIS SITE FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THE G IS CLOSE TO THE B ON THE KEYBOARD. HE HOPES PEOPLE WILL ACCIDENTALLY CLICK ON THE G INSTEAD OF THE B AND STUMBLE ONTO HIS SITE. IN ADDITION HE HOPES THEY WILL SEE HIS PLEA FOR MONEY AND FEEL INCLINED TO DONATE. HE IS VERY IMPORTANT LOCAL CELEBRITY BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN ON LOCAL CHANNEL 12 NEWS REGARDING ANTHEM COLLEGE THAT WAS NOT PROVIDING EXCELLENT EDUCATION, AND WAS FORCED BY THE POST SECONDARY BOARD OF EDUCATION TO RETURN FUNDS TO THE CHAUNCEY. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.230.8.151 ( talk) 21:14, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
This is more trouble than it's worth. Clearly, there's a bias against independent artists & labels amongst Wikipedia editors. The article contains no conjecture or self-promotional statements. This article deserves a place on Wikipedia because there are many in the music community with interest in the albums released by Element 9 and they should be not have to leave Wikipedia in order to find out more about the label. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Element9hiphop ( talk • contribs) 21:26, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
The article Bronisław Baczko has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{ prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. An optimist on the run! 10:35, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited Warsaw School (history of ideas), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Revisionism ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You were right, the only edit I intended was fixing the weasel words. I'm glad there are other eyes that watch to catch mistakes like this. Thanks. 24.79.82.67 ( talk) 22:28, 2 May 2012 (UTC)
Dear Joe, Thanks for your comments. I understand your points related to conflict of interest and accurate referencing of sources. I did not understand, until you told me, that the sourcing had to relate directly to the subject of the article; rather, I thought of it as a link to more information in general.
I have a question: What do I do, for example, to provide a source about an honour like "Honorary Texan" when there is no secondary source? Should I just remove it altogether?
I will look for reliable sources and resubmit. Many thanks for your help.

Hi Joe Roe, I now improved my second article about the musician Stefan Obermaier, but I am not sure if I put it correct for approval... I already asked at the help desc, this is now few days ago, and there is still no movement with the article... can you help me? Have I done it right this time? The first time it was declined, because I haven't found enough secondary resources about the musician in the internet, (just in paper form -where I have my informations from), now the artist had new releases and I found on the internet reliable recourses (few in German, few in English). Can you please take a look at it? Thanks, best, Kirschblume ( talk) 11:18, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
