Respected Sir/Madam, I have seen your reservations posted at :-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ntu129 I have sought information and clarification at the below mentioned url:-
Please aid in this regard.

Hi I added the refernces to my page. Is it ok now? — Preceding unsigned comment added by EliaBerger ( talk • contribs) 12:05, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your reply. I know the facts because he gave them to meee. I will add footnotes but will an existing wikipedia page in Hebrew help? I'll add the notes tonight! Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by EliaBerger ( talk • contribs) 17:07, 27 June 2013 (UTC)
Ok since we live in Israel mostly the information is from Hebrew news articles and websites. I added six references from the media and a publication to back these facts. Please accept it I have to move on with my life. I have to move on I have been working on this for so long. Please please please. I would never make up facts. Its all true. He is an Israeli journalist. Please help and publish this so I can move on with my life and get married and have a family and a house. Please
OK I wont postpone my wedding and having kids. I added the format with the publication or news source; and the date--so people can see that everything is backed either by a government ministry, a newspaper article, a financial paper, or one of our tv networks. I think it is clear now. I prefer not to safe-keep it but have it reviewed and accepted so I can resume things I would do before editing on Wikipedia, like studying and spending time with my family and writing. I think we're being fair to Chen. Thanks so much. Let me know — Preceding unsigned comment added by EliaBerger ( talk • contribs) 05:18, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
I put up a draft version here. Feel free to play around with anything you want, especially the thing about the flood, because I don't completely understand that part, but I desperately want to keep it because someone used it. ö Brambleberry of RiverClan 23:21, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
Matthew,
Thanks so much for that information. I was reading the instructions page on how to create an article, and it did mention that I needed to have have specific notability of FOCIS. I was not aware that Wikipedia worked in the way that you described. I do however have one question: I noticed that directly after an Album or Movie, etc. is released, Wikipedia seems to have an article about that item a few days later. I would like to know how the user or creator of the article retrieves enough information on the internet despite the fact that the item being described has JUST been released... and Wikipedia accepts it ? If you do not exactly know, then it is completely fine. Thanks Easports13 ( talk) 02:23, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi Matthew, Thank you for the prompt response. The Armenian Assembly of America (AAA) was established in 1972 and is a 501(c)(3) organization. We are a primary source for news and information regarding the Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues (Armenian Caucus), as we led the organizational efforts to establish the Armenian Caucus back in 1995. I hope this adequately addresses your concerns. Thank you. ArmenianCaucus ( talk) 20:21, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for approving my article on Calcis! This was my first article I've created, and I forgot an important part. The article doesn't need to be named "Calcis."

Hi Matthew - You just approved the Leo Sarkisian page for me. I realized that there are two very different Leo Sarkisians (one who was an advocate for Armenian Americans and one who did the Voice of America shows in Africa). The former is the one I wish to create a page for, though they both deserve pages. But part of my assignment by my employer is to do the former because a lot of Armenians know nothing about him.
Can you erase all the references to VoA and I'll start citing more about the Sarkisian that was an advocate for Armenians? Thank you and sorry for the confusion.
Helow Mr Matthew Vanitas sir.. I tried a lot to do the reference footnotes for an article for creation/Artist Rajasekharan. I was not able to arrange in proper way. The serial numbers are not coming up properly.Kindly arrange me in proper way. Regards Rajasekharan Parameswaran Rajasekharan Parameswaran ( talk) 14:54, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
Matthew,
I wrote my first new Wikipedia article today, the one about folk music band HogMaw. You were kind enough to move it to "Articles for Creation". I just wanted to say "thanks".
RadioFan rejected the article on grounds of lack of notability. I wish I understood why a major regional radio station and two major regional online publications do not fulfill Wikipedia's notability and verifiability requirements. As an author published in two academic journals in two fields, I must say I find the application of Wikipedia's requirements puzzling.
In any case, while I was taken aback by RadioFan's terse response to my inquiries, I appreciate you moving the article. With any luck, The New York Times will cover HogMaw soon, or the submission of articles from folk bands will be more welcome so their important contributions to music aren't lost amidst bands with gold records and PR firms.
I won't waste anyone else's time. Thanks for your hard work on Wikipedia. Jdubbleu ( talk) 01:14, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Matthew for your very helpful comments & edits. I could never have worked out to do what you have done with the draft. I've redressed the 'tone' problem & shall shortly insert the references you've posted. I note you have a line through my first reference, which I repeat a few times. Not sure why. I can use a latter reference in its place, but the one cited is the original. & I don't know how to remove the sentence & word you have lined through. I've tried. Without your hands-on help, I'd have eventually given up on the submission. It's like landing in a foreign country where I don't speak the language. So thanks heaps. Baruinga Baruinga ( talk) 05:39, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
<s> and </s>
formatting, were some off-Tone bits that were more flowery than encyclopedic, and I also marked a few too-twee bits like "guests of the Crown" or whatnot (aside from being cutesy, as a non-Australian I'm not even sure what that means, prisoners?). So yeah, encyclopedic writing isn't particularly fun or dramatic, but it is pretty concise and clear, so it's a certain style. Nice work so far, ping my Talk if you hit any snags. And yes, pictures would be a very great addition, especially if you have ones you personally took that you can upload to Wikimedia Commons as "Creative Commons" so the whole world can use them.
MatthewVanitas (

Since you're the only person getting back to me with detail & any sense, I need more help please. I cannot add references into my edit box using templates. Sometimes, after hrs of trying, I can get it to work, but then don't know exactly what it is I do that's correct. Closing down my PC & rebooting sometimes helps. Beats me. I log in. Hit the contribution button, then the current version, which is in read mode. I then hit the edit button which pulls up the edit box. I then try to use the cite dropdown template box in the edit zone, hit the line I want & nothing happens. It is on this simple function I have wasted 11 hrs thus far. What am I doing wrong please? And while I've got you, I uploaded the picture (File:Penguin General Cemetery, Penguin, Tasmania, Australia.jpg) & have successfully got it to my page, though perhaps not in the correct place. But I GOT it there (Ya!). I need to link my article to one already on Wiki (File: Penguin, Tasmania) but have not been successful in doing this.Finally, I can add a few current websites for verification, hoping this will be straight forward. Then I reckon I should be ready to re-resubmit. Thanks for everything Matthew.

I'm sure you're pleased to read more things written by me at this point.
I am a paid employee of Scranton Gillette and I have disclosed that on my user page. However, though I may not be smart enough to publish articles successfully, I know better than to try and use Wikipedia to advertise. The reason my pages are so bare is because I am trying to keep them non-promotional.
I am sorry for tying up Wikipedia editors, but I wouldn't have to if you guys weren't vague and inconsistent. You can tell me as many times as you like that my sources aren't reliable, but that doesn't help me when I've tried all sorts of sources--from scientific books to WorldCat entries. I don't really know how much more reliable and non-biased you can get than a book published by Cornell about how to grow perennial plants. This is a verifiable source, unless I'm much mistaken.
As for notability, I guess I could say that our publications largely command the largest market share in their respective industries, but that's based on our own data, which you wouldn't trust, and by reports from marketing firms that I can't disclose to a site like Wikipedia. There's only so much I can say about notability without sounding like an advertiser.
We've got multiple publications online (other than The Diapason and Imaging News Technology--I'm pretty sure you guys published the latter). These are about as notable as the ones I'm trying to get online and are not sourced in a more extensive way. I have been trying to use other Wikipedia pages as a guide, but this has failed. Sourcing in footnotes, sourcing at the same level as these other pages--none of it has allowed pages such as Lawn and Garden Retailer to be published. If I can't learn how to do a Wikipedia article correctly from these and from my own attempts to publish, as well as two help desk requests, is it possible that I'm never going to "learn"? Or do I just need to wait for a Wikipedia editor to come along who deems my article appropriate, or for there to be a day when you're running on a standard that allows my article to be published?
I'm as frustrated as all of the editors are with these articles. Try not to take this as a personal attack, it's just based on the experience I've had with you guys so far. Gulpingguppy ( talk) 17:22, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing my the page I submitted.
In your review you said I basically needed to: 1. Prove his nobility and 2. Do that through independent sources.
Thomas is a pretty well known guy with book sales way over a million--he has over 600,000 on just one of his books alone. He speaks at all kinds of Christian conferences. And he preaches at the 2nd biggest church in the United States.
If I can back all of this information up with independent sources, and I should be able to, can I do it without having to change what I wrote that much? Or am I looking at a script makeover?
Also, in the beliefs section, those are summaries of his ideas by looking for his thesis's in his papers and books. I am a student at Princeton and I know that paraphrasing author's thesis themselves by citing the author, without citing independent source, is a kosher thing to do in the world of academia. So surely this can stay without independent sources, correct?
Thank you for your help Brookspowell629 ( talk) 23:26, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Brooks Powell
Another rejection Matthew. My frustration is that a 7-word feedback about not thoroughly reliable sources tells me nothing about what I should do. What is it exactly I have to do, or am doing wrong? Should I simply quit because any other references are very much of the same ilk as those already cited? (Not that I want to quit, I'd really like to see the entry succeed.) I've cited primary sources $ secondary sources about the primary, all directly verifiable, though not all have a direct weblink. I cannot think of any overarching tertiary confirmatory source I can cite. Or is it that I need to provide more information in just some of the references already cited rather than provided more references, which is quite a different issue & likely easily redressed? Any suggestions please Matthew? I really do appreciate your kind mentoring.Baruinga Baruinga ( talk) 22:23, 12 July 2013 (UTC) Baruinga ( talk) 03:18, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

To expand -
{{Wikipedia:42}} makes
Articles generally require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic. |
We need significant coverage. We need multiple sources that discuss the topic directly and in detail. Not: passing mentions, directory listings, government records, or any old thing that happens to have the topic's name in it.
We need sources that are reliable. Usually this means that the publisher has a reputation for fact checking and the text must be approved by an editor before it is printed. For example: books from reputable publishing houses, mainstream newspapers, or other periodicals. Not: tabloids, discussion boards, fansites, social media, or most blogs.
We need sources that are independent from the subject of the article. Not: books or articles written by the subject (including interviews), articles paid for by the subject, press releases, a Q&A interview where virtually all of the information is just the subject or a spokesperson speaking for themselves.
Readers should be able to rely on what they read and be able to verify claims they read in Wikipedia articles. So, add footnotes to your article citing reliable sources as described.
I could do some magic to make it appear more like this if it pleases you (it wouldn't affect the rendering of
Wikipedia:42 proper)-
in reliable sources
I can look at the other one later :) ~

Hello Matthew. (I am assuming that contacting you here is what is called pinging you.) I'm going to modify some of the references in my recently uploaded (novice) page. And upload two more images. Two questions re the latter. Will they end up in the correct place on the page or do I abracadabra them somehow? I did successfully upload the existing image (but into the wrong part of my page (Penguin General Cemetery), which was corrected for me. Also what about image quality please? Re the citations, I'm assuming that in the edit screen I simply add to the existing reference sequence the insertion I want. These are mainly URLs, with one new reference for which I'm hoping the template will work but if not I can sequence the information anyway (I think). A final question. The current page is asking for a citation re convict burials. There is no information whatsoever on this claim apart from one of the images I'll be uploading - a recently erected monument, by descendants, which clearly states the late 1800s burial had been a 'guest of the crown' (convict).

Thanks Matthew for your input on the Pomeroy surname page and your additions to it. I am the original writer of the article and a Pomeroy family member. I did have to change a few of your additions to make them more current with the tremendous ongoing work by several family members including Annie of the british "twig" site, Alma of the american "connections" site and Chris a current historian and Pomeroy family DNA researcher( lecture /speach on uk national archives regarding dna studies via podcast .Chris Pomroy is his correct spelling but he uses both). So many Pomeroys need articles as you would see on both those sites that its incredible the one that immediately that comes to mind today which would be Eltweed Pomeroy not only grandfather to almost half the current population of usa pom's but father to USA town hall meetings.. I wish I could get into writing or recruit other family members to contribute here but they obviously are very busy with their own family sites or just life in general. another pom not on here discovered or was first to see a certain metalurgic occurence at the university of BC that also should be on. Honestly so many in our family should have a wiki article and linked under the pomeroy banner is quite amazing and something I will never truly believe many are modern, many old, one buried in Westminster Abbey isnt on here yet thats quite an honor from what i hear . I would encourage you as a writer simply to read the first 20 pages of the Book by AA Pom and or do a google search with pomeroy and a keyword, thats how i originally found my lineage was my surname with berry , which led to the castle and onward until I questioned those mentioned above and shared emails and lineages and documents because it was really surprising as i thought there were very very few of us.. cheers again and thanks hopefully you'll become interested enough to take on a few hours of time to which i can assure you will be as entertaining as the older stories and history from Britain and Ireland are awesome , i do guess it depends on your interests and where your from but i would think most have never heard the name despite its truly amazing 950 (soon1000 year old name, their is a family gathering for that anniversary in a few years . and hey if your ever want to give to a church... im not religious but i got the 88 year old vicar to put paypal on his website for the friends of berry pomeroy church built around 1490 and in Jane Austens movie.. but as a wiki user if you know other writers as i say the first 20 pages of AA Poms 100+ year old book available free on googlebooks and brings up 1000 year old stories to mind like romeo and juliet or robin hood type stories, its very very cool and all other users reading this, take interest for entertainment and write an article on a Pom for pleasure. the sites listed on the article are the most recent and their creators would probably be very helpful and help with citations , i would love to add more articles on my immediate family members such as an original world wide wrestler who was known as the mad russian or my cousin david the opera singer.. its hard to write about stuff close to you without bias but i believe whats written now is correct and confirmable without much problems.. cheers! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.67.169.199 ( talk) 09:41, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi MatthewVanitas,
I appreciate you getting back to me with your comments on my Anthony Del Col article. I've researched some more information about Anthony, and I was wondering if it would grant him notable status:
Anthony has produced feature films in Canada, including exec producer on the Nelly Furtado Loose Live Album CD
[1]. Anthony is also an accomplished film pitch consultant; He won the Telefilm Canada Pitch This contest in 2006
[2] and 2010
[3]. Anthony also served as a coach for the contest in 2011 and 2012.
Of course, if this information would warrant Anthony as notable, I would re-structure it to better incorporate it with the rest of the information in the unpublished article.
In addition, I've done some research on Wikipedia's criteria for a person's notability on the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals page. The article states that a Creative Professional might be considered notable if "The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." I would argue that Anthony Del Col's status as the co-creator of "Kill Shakespeare," a work that has been the subject of multiple articles and reviews (as I have demonstrated in the current article I'm attempting to create), could warrant him notability.
Please let me know your thoughts on the matters, and if there is anything further I can do to ensure the article's creation.
Thank you for your time and insight.

We noticed though that when you edited Masubia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lozi ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Ok since we live in Israel mostly the information is from Hebrew news articles and websites. I added six references from the media and a publication to back these facts. Please accept it I have to move on with my life. I have to move on I have been working on this for so long. Please please please. I would never make up facts. Its all true. He is an Israeli journalist. Please help and publish this so I can move on with my life and get married and have a family and a house. Please
OK I wont postpone my wedding and having kids. I added the format with the publication or news source; and the date--so people can see that everything is backed either by a government ministry, a newspaper article, a financial paper, or one of our tv networks. I think it is clear now. I prefer not to safe-keep it but have it reviewed and accepted so I can resume things I would do before editing on Wikipedia, like studying and spending time with my family and writing. I think we're being fair to Chen. Thanks so much. Let me know — Preceding unsigned comment added by EliaBerger ( talk • contribs) 05:18, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Matthew,
Thanks so much for that information. I was reading the instructions page on how to create an article, and it did mention that I needed to have have specific notability of FOCIS. I was not aware that Wikipedia worked in the way that you described. I do however have one question: I noticed that directly after an Album or Movie, etc. is released, Wikipedia seems to have an article about that item a few days later. I would like to know how the user or creator of the article retrieves enough information on the internet despite the fact that the item being described has JUST been released... and Wikipedia accepts it ? If you do not exactly know, then it is completely fine. Thanks Easports13 ( talk) 02:23, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi Matthew, Thank you for the prompt response. The Armenian Assembly of America (AAA) was established in 1972 and is a 501(c)(3) organization.

I hope this adequately addresses your concerns. Thank you. ArmenianCaucus ( talk) 20:21, 1 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Matthew - You just approved the Leo Sarkisian page for me. I realized that there are two very different Leo Sarkisians (one who was an advocate for Armenian Americans and one who did the Voice of America shows in Africa). The former is the one I wish to create a page for, though they both deserve pages. But part of my assignment by my employer is to do the former because a lot of Armenians know nothing about him.
Can you erase all the references to VoA and I'll start citing more about the Sarkisian that was an advocate for Armenians? Thank you and sorry for the confusion.
Helow Mr Matthew Vanitas sir.. I tried a lot to do the reference footnotes for an article for creation/Artist Rajasekharan. I was not able to arrange in proper way.

Matthew,
I wrote my first new Wikipedia article today, the one about folk music band HogMaw. You were kind enough to move it to "Articles for Creation". I just wanted to say "thanks".
RadioFan rejected the article on grounds of lack of notability. I wish I understood why a major regional radio station and two major regional online publications do not fulfill Wikipedia's notability and verifiability requirements. As an author published in two academic journals in two fields, I must say I find the application of Wikipedia's requirements puzzling.
In any case, while I was taken aback by RadioFan's terse response to my inquiries, I appreciate you moving the article. With any luck, The New York Times will cover HogMaw soon, or the submission of articles from folk bands will be more welcome so their important contributions to music aren't lost amidst bands with gold records and PR firms.
I won't waste anyone else's time. Thanks for your hard work on Wikipedia. Jdubbleu ( talk) 01:14, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks Matthew for your very helpful comments & edits. I could never have worked out to do what you have done with the draft. I've redressed the 'tone' problem & shall shortly insert the references you've posted. I note you have a line through my first reference, which I repeat a few times. Not sure why. I can use a latter reference in its place, but the one cited is the original. & I don't know how to remove the sentence & word you have lined through. I've tried. Without your hands-on help, I'd have eventually given up on the submission. It's like landing in a foreign country where I don't speak the language. So thanks heaps.

<s> and </s>
formatting, were some off-Tone bits that were more flowery than encyclopedic, and I also marked a few too-twee bits like "guests of the Crown" or whatnot (aside from being cutesy, as a non-Australian I'm not even sure what that means, prisoners?). So yeah, encyclopedic writing isn't particularly fun or dramatic, but it is pretty concise and clear, so it's a certain style. Nice work so far, ping my Talk if you hit any snags. And yes, pictures would be a very great addition, especially if you have ones you personally took that you can upload to Wikimedia Commons as "Creative Commons" so the whole world can use them.

Since you're the only person getting back to me with detail & any sense, I need more help please. I cannot add references into my edit box using templates. Sometimes, after hrs of trying, I can get it to work, but then don't know exactly what it is I do that's correct. Closing down my PC & rebooting sometimes helps. Beats me. I log in. Hit the contribution button, then the current version, which is in read mode. I then hit the edit button which pulls up the edit box. I then try to use the cite dropdown template box in the edit zone, hit the line I want & nothing happens. It is on this simple function I have wasted 11 hrs thus far. What am I doing wrong please? And while I've got you, I uploaded the picture (File:Penguin General Cemetery, Penguin, Tasmania, Australia.jpg) & have successfully got it to my page, though perhaps not in the correct place. But I GOT it there (Ya!). I need to link my article to one already on Wiki (File: Penguin, Tasmania) but have not been successful in doing this.Finally, I can add a few current websites for verification, hoping this will be straight forward. Then I reckon I should be ready to re-resubmit. Thanks for everything Matthew.

I'm sure you're pleased to read more things written by me at this point.
I am a paid employee of Scranton Gillette and I have disclosed that on my user page. However, though I may not be smart enough to publish articles successfully, I know better than to try and use Wikipedia to advertise. The reason my pages are so bare is because I am trying to keep them non-promotional.
I am sorry for tying up Wikipedia editors, but I wouldn't have to if you guys weren't vague and inconsistent. You can tell me as many times as you like that my sources aren't reliable, but that doesn't help me when I've tried all sorts of sources--from scientific books to WorldCat entries. I don't really know how much more reliable and non-biased you can get than a book published by Cornell about how to grow perennial plants. This is a verifiable source, unless I'm much mistaken.
As for notability, I guess I could say that our publications largely command the largest market share in their respective industries, but that's based on our own data, which you wouldn't trust, and by reports from marketing firms that I can't disclose to a site like Wikipedia. There's only so much I can say about notability without sounding like an advertiser.
We've got multiple publications online (other than The Diapason and Imaging News Technology--I'm pretty sure you guys published the latter). These are about as notable as the ones I'm trying to get online and are not sourced in a more extensive way. I have been trying to use other Wikipedia pages as a guide, but this has failed. Sourcing in footnotes, sourcing at the same level as these other pages--none of it has allowed pages such as Lawn and Garden Retailer to be published. If I can't learn how to do a Wikipedia article correctly from these and from my own attempts to publish, as well as two help desk requests, is it possible that I'm never going to "learn"? Or do I just need to wait for a Wikipedia editor to come along who deems my article appropriate, or for there to be a day when you're running on a standard that allows my article to be published?
I'm as frustrated as all of the editors are with these articles. Try not to take this as a personal attack, it's just based on the experience I've had with you guys so far. Gulpingguppy ( talk) 17:22, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing my the page I submitted.
In your review you said I basically needed to: 1. Prove his nobility and 2. Do that through independent sources.
Thomas is a pretty well known guy with book sales way over a million--he has over 600,000 on just one of his books alone. He speaks at all kinds of Christian conferences. And he preaches at the 2nd biggest church in the United States.
If I can back all of this information up with independent sources, and I should be able to, can I do it without having to change what I wrote that much? Or am I looking at a script makeover?
Also, in the beliefs section, those are summaries of his ideas by looking for his thesis's in his papers and books. I am a student at Princeton and I know that paraphrasing author's thesis themselves by citing the author, without citing independent source, is a kosher thing to do in the world of academia. So surely this can stay without independent sources, correct?

Another rejection Matthew. My frustration is that a 7-word feedback about not thoroughly reliable sources tells me nothing about what I should do. What is it exactly I have to do, or am doing wrong? Should I simply quit because any other references are very much of the same ilk as those already cited? (Not that I want to quit, I'd really like to see the entry succeed.) I've cited primary sources $ secondary sources about the primary, all directly verifiable, though not all have a direct weblink. I cannot think of any overarching tertiary confirmatory source I can cite. Or is it that I need to provide more information in just some of the references already cited rather than provided more references, which is quite a different issue & likely easily redressed? Any suggestions please Matthew? I really do appreciate your kind mentoring.Baruinga Baruinga ( talk) 22:23, 12 July 2013 (UTC) Baruinga ( talk) 03:18, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

To expand -
{{Wikipedia:42}} makes
Articles generally require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic. |
We need significant coverage. We need multiple sources that discuss the topic directly and in detail. Not: passing mentions, directory listings, government records, or any old thing that happens to have the topic's name in it.
We need sources that are reliable. Usually this means that the publisher has a reputation for fact checking and the text must be approved by an editor before it is printed. For example: books from reputable publishing houses, mainstream newspapers, or other periodicals. Not: tabloids, discussion boards, fansites, social media, or most blogs.
We need sources that are independent from the subject of the article. Not: books or articles written by the subject (including interviews), articles paid for by the subject, press releases, a Q&A interview where virtually all of the information is just the subject or a spokesperson speaking for themselves.
Readers should be able to rely on what they read and be able to verify claims they read in Wikipedia articles. So, add footnotes to your article citing reliable sources as described.
I could do some magic to make it appear more like this if it pleases you (it wouldn't affect the rendering of
Wikipedia:42 proper)-
in reliable sources
I can look at the other one later :) ~

Hello Matthew. (I am assuming that contacting you here is what is called pinging you.) I'm going to modify some of the references in my recently uploaded (novice) page. And upload two more images. Two questions re the latter. Will they end up in the correct place on the page or do I abracadabra them somehow? I did successfully upload the existing image (but into the wrong part of my page (Penguin General Cemetery), which was corrected for me. Also what about image quality please? Re the citations, I'm assuming that in the edit screen I simply add to the existing reference sequence the insertion I want. These are mainly URLs, with one new reference for which I'm hoping the template will work but if not I can sequence the information anyway (I think). A final question. The current page is asking for a citation re convict burials. There is no information whatsoever on this claim apart from one of the images I'll be uploading - a recently erected monument, by descendants, which clearly states the late 1800s burial had been a 'guest of the crown' (convict).

Thanks Matthew for your input on the Pomeroy surname page and your additions to it. I am the original writer of the article and a Pomeroy family member. I did have to change a few of your additions to make them more current with the tremendous ongoing work by several family members including Annie of the british "twig" site, Alma of the american "connections" site and Chris a current historian and Pomeroy family DNA researcher( lecture /speach on uk national archives regarding dna studies via podcast .Chris Pomroy is his correct spelling but he uses both). So many Pomeroys need articles as you would see on both those sites that its incredible the one that immediately that comes to mind today which would be Eltweed Pomeroy not only grandfather to almost half the current population of usa pom's but father to USA town hall meetings.. I wish I could get into writing or recruit other family members to contribute here but they obviously are very busy with their own family sites or just life in general. another pom not on here discovered or was first to see a certain metalurgic occurence at the university of BC that also should be on. Honestly so many in our family should have a wiki article and linked under the pomeroy banner is quite amazing and something I will never truly believe many are modern, many old, one buried in Westminster Abbey isnt on here yet thats quite an honor from what i hear . I would encourage you as a writer simply to read the first 20 pages of the Book by AA Pom and or do a google search with pomeroy and a keyword, thats how i originally found my lineage was my surname with berry , which led to the castle and onward until I questioned those mentioned above and shared emails and lineages and documents because it was really surprising as i thought there were very very few of us.. cheers again and thanks hopefully you'll become interested enough to take on a few hours of time to which i can assure you will be as entertaining as the older stories and history from Britain and Ireland are awesome , i do guess it depends on your interests and where your from but i would think most have never heard the name despite its truly amazing 950 (soon1000 year old name, their is a family gathering for that anniversary in a few years . and hey if your ever want to give to a church... im not religious but i got the 88 year old vicar to put paypal on his website for the friends of berry pomeroy church built around 1490 and in Jane Austens movie.. but as a wiki user if you know other writers as i say the first 20 pages of AA Poms 100+ year old book available free on googlebooks and brings up 1000 year old stories to mind like romeo and juliet or robin hood type stories, its very very cool and all other users reading this, take interest for entertainment and write an article on a Pom for pleasure. the sites listed on the article are the most recent and their creators would probably be very helpful and help with citations , i would love to add more articles on my immediate family members such as an original world wide wrestler who was known as the mad russian or my cousin david the opera singer.. its hard to write about stuff close to you without bias but i believe whats written now is correct and confirmable without much problems.. cheers! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.67.169.199 ( talk) 09:41, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi MatthewVanitas,
I appreciate you getting back to me with your comments on my Anthony Del Col article. I've researched some more information about Anthony, and I was wondering if it would grant him notable status:
Anthony has produced feature films in Canada, including exec producer on the Nelly Furtado Loose Live Album CD
[1]. Anthony is also an accomplished film pitch consultant; He won the Telefilm Canada Pitch This contest in 2006
[2] and 2010
[3]. Anthony also served as a coach for the contest in 2011 and 2012.
Of course, if this information would warrant Anthony as notable, I would re-structure it to better incorporate it with the rest of the information in the unpublished article.
In addition, I've done some research on Wikipedia's criteria for a person's notability on the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals page. The article states that a Creative Professional might be considered notable if "The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." I would argue that Anthony Del Col's status as the co-creator of "Kill Shakespeare," a work that has been the subject of multiple articles and reviews (as I have demonstrated in the current article I'm attempting to create), could warrant him notability.
Please let me know your thoughts on the matters, and if there is anything further I can do to ensure the article's creation.
Thank you for your time and insight.
Cheers,

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Masubia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lozi ( 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.
