Dear Reviewer: I appreciate your time taken to review Wikipedia page on “Nancy D Erbe “, my professor and now a friend. I was trying to create a page to honor her achievements. /info/en/?search=Draft:Nancy_D_Erbe
Getting a Fulbright Distinguished Chair is one of the highest award and recognition that a professor can get. She has four Fulbright honors till date with two honors in the year 2014 alone. I have yet to know a professor getting two Fulbright honors in same year.
Your Comment:" Not sure this individual meets the notability requirements. In addition, this article has a close paraphrasing issue with some of the underlying sources, e.g. http://www.ejournalncrp.org/warfare-on-the-streets-of-l-a/ and http://www4.csudh.edu/negotiation/faculty/nancy-erbe. Onel5969 (talk) 19:58, 28 December 2014 (UTC)"
Both the links you quoted are on " Nancy D Erbe". On your comment " close paraphrasing.....", there is hardly any text description, other than her position and mentioning of her awards/books which have to be with same title everywhere.
I would appreciate if you could be specific where you desire changes and I will reedit and submit again. Thanks! Sincerely Surance

Kimmie Rhodes | |
Hello I have changed my article about the singer-songwirter Kimmie Rhodes. The sources are from allmusic.com. all about hte CDs Kimmie issued. The text was taken from a lot of interviews with her. If there are more sources necessary please let me know. This is my first work for Wikipedia especially in english, so I hope you can be of some help. Greetings from Germany ManfredGerspacher ( talk) 13:36, 2 January 2015 (UTC) |
I now found more sources that I included, some books from my own collection, some sources in the www. I hope this helps. I also improved/changed the sources from allmusic.com — Preceding unsigned comment added by ManfredGerspacher ( talk • contribs) 19:00, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
I did add some more sources, so I need to know what more I have to do, until the article can be moved to the public area. Is there anything more I have to do? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ManfredGerspacher ( talk • contribs) 15:27, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello, thank you so much for your help with this article about Kimmie. The link wikilink for "Walls Fall Down" as well as all wikilinks in the discography were created automatically - they have to be removed. I will try to find out how that works. Also I have to find out, how to put a picture into this article. Again, many thanks from Germany — Preceding unsigned comment added by ManfredGerspacher ( talk • contribs) 18:48, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

Dear Onel5969:
Thanks for your quick response. I tried to fix.It has been resubmitted. You are at liberty to do final re-edit if you so desire.
Yes, she is currently a professor at CSUDH and will continue to do so even when she will serve as Fulbright Distinguished chair ( PUC-Rio) from March-June 2015 ( Fulbright Distinguished Chair it is more like an honor and recognition along with educational/research work with host institution).
Thanks! Sincerely, Surance

Fbell74 - It's both, but there's also a third reason, and that's there are a ton of folks who don't want to learn. I'd say that about half of the older submissions have been declined at least once, and many several times. This tends to only exacerbate the clog. I think that's why when an editor has someone, like you, who asks for help, and then puts in the effort, we try to help however we can. Happy editing. Onel5969 ( talk) 02:27, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Can I please get details as to what was a copyright infringement in the article "Tulsa Spotlight Theater ". All I received was a message that the article was rejected for copyright infringement.

Could you point me to the guideline? I'm just not sure which ones you're referring to. -- Calidum 01:14, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi Onel5969
I'd like to provide the following reference for the Battle of Chesterfield:
The Battle of Chesterfield took place in 1266 when a band of rebellious barons were defeated by a royalist army.
Pegge, Samuel (1769). "A succinct and authentic narrative of the Battle of Chesterfield, A.D 1266 in the reign of King Henry III". Archaeologica. XXXVI: 276–285.
I don't know how to insert it into your article about Chesterfield without disturbing the numbering system for other references.

Hi! It appears that the aforesaid article, written by myself, was rejected by yourself as it may have infringed copyright. After a quick investigation, it appears that the article infringed IMDb. I'd just like to point out that I also wrote the inclusion on IMDb. It isn't easy to change the wording too much, as there is only a small amount of information about Frank that I want to write. Does this still count as 'copyright' if I wrote both articles? Regards, Denby Spinks — Preceding unsigned comment added by DenbySpinks ( talk • contribs) 17:41, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi. Well, by definition I give the rights to WP. I understand why IMDb is not considered a reliable source. However in this instance, it wasn't used as such. Of the two links that I submitted, one was a famous motoring journalist paying tribute to Frank, which confirmed his existence, where he'd worked, and when he had died, and the other, if I remember rightly, was a link to the Guild of Motoring Writers, which showed Frank's details and confirmed his previous chairmanship. It was only a short piece; basically, "Well liked motoring journalist" lived and died et al. If you could be more specific about the 'information' within the piece that seems to be causing a problem, I will endeavour to supply any references/links that I can. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DenbySpinks ( talk • contribs) 08:33, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
Under such a scenario, there would be no doubt you were the copyright owner of the creative expression (in this case, text). As such you would have the right to license it for someone else's one-time use and retain non-free copyright over the original. Such dispensation is common but it's useless at Wikipedia. We cannot agree to that because our licenses require that our end users (our readers) have the ability to take most content they see here and use (or modify) that content for their own ends, even for commercial uses (our free licenses only require that they provide attribution to our editors as the source). So, what we require is a release of the content to be used here to the world, under a compatibly free copyright license (or into the public domain).
That is all well and good except that in order to do so, we can't just take someone's word for it: "I'm releasing it"; we need something much more rigorous, some proof that the person who is releasing the content is the actual owner and their specific statement/form of release shown in a verifiable way. One way, for example, is for the author of the content, at the external site where the content comes from, to post the release right there (in place of any non-free copyright notice, if there was one), so that when you visit the website, that release is on view (it can also be archived using {{ Text release}}). Such a release might look like this:
The text of this page is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts).
Another way is to provide a release through an email from a domain name associated with the external site. See Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries.
Okay, now hopefully you understand the playing field a bit. Here's the problem though. How would you go about proving you were the person who posted the material to IMDb? I'm not saying it's impossible but I see no clear way you could do so. Best regards-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 23:56, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
This is very old now, but unfortunately I did not receive a notification of this. I'm not sure whether the input by Fuhghettaboutit is disingenuous, but I'll accept it at 'face value'. Firstly, I do understand the points of note and was aware of some of them, unlike everyone involved. I wasn't using that as a 'release', merely bringing to the attention of Wikipedia that I wrote both items, and was not some kind of plagarist, (as was by default, seemingly being alluded to), and that the facts of the two postings may have some relevance to the copyright issue. I understand the difficulties involved due to the useage of Wikipedia. These two points may be of interest, 1) The piece on IMDb is 'signed' by myself, and is displayed within 'my contributions'. 2) The said item was actually submitted to Wikipedia BEFORE IMDb. It was posted on IMDb first as there is not the same criteria on the aforesaid site.
So not only is the item in question undeniably mine, but it was actually posted on Wiki first.
But 'Hey Ho!' Delete and refuse before you're acquainted with the facts or have asked any questions.
However I do accept that with this being displayed on IMDb first, and the rigorous copyright requirements of Wikipedia, it may now be impossible to post this.
I will not be rewriting or re-posting. -- DenbySpinks ( talk) 00:20, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
Jazanna ( talk) 08:58, 12 January 2015 (UTC) Thanks for your review! It would be helpful for me to know what I can do to improve the article.

Dear Onel5969, Thanks for reviewing our page 'George Rhoads.' ( /info/en/?search=Draft:George_Rhoads ) This is our first attempt at making a wikipedia page, so I just thought I would try to get some more information about the improvements we need to make in order to get our page approved. Your comment for us was 'The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.'
Just to clarify, we just need to put in footnotes to cite the information we gathered from each of the references we listed under the references section? Do we need to do anything further with the actual references we provided?
If you can provide any more information it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time.

Dear Onel5969, I noticed that the draft I submitted about Mauricio Garcia Araujo wasn’t accepted. Mauricio Garcia Araujo is a notable person in Venezuela. He was the president of Central Bank of Venezuela between 1987 and 1989. He was also an iconic person in the public sector for directing different enterprises key to the country’s economy. He is also relevant for advising family business and being in the board of directors of many different private companies. Mauricio Garcia Araujo published different articles (listed in the draft) relevant to Venezuela’s oil economy. One of his articles is used as reference in the definition of Colegio Humboldt, Caracas.
I would really appreciate if you could help me improve the article or please tell me the changes I need to do in order to meet Wikipedia’s requirements. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eleonora Venezuela ( talk • contribs) 22:03, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi Onel,
I am looking to take the article to peer review soon and, ultimately, GA/FA. You seem at least somewhat interested in improving the article, so I thought you could help me out in making some fixes before I send it. Of primary concern is the main reason it was denied GA two years ago, which is its lack of referencing in certain sections. The third paragraph in
Writing is rather bare, along with the
Cinematic and literary allusions section; the
Soundtrack section is almost entirely uncited. Do you have the time and desire to help me get these sections up to par for a GAN? I was working with
Mediran previously but they seem to have rather disappeared. Thanks,

Sorry, You make a mistake, because the text on link has been copied from Wikipedia, and initially all written here. It could happen a year ago, when I first wrote an article. It is not necessary to delete paragraphs, unless you know what was the first =) http://www.designfirms.org/company/24179/designcontest/ If you look - they copied the text from here, even with links to resources on Wikipedia.

Hi, there is no need to delete a redirect to create an article from it. For example at https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Lottie_Williams&redirect=no However if you do have an AFC or draft to move over the top then I can delete it.

Hi Onel5969,
Thank you very much for your helpful editorial recommendations for my bio on Harold Weintraub, which was my first biographical submission (my only other article was about a stereo amplifier!) I have very studiously made the changes you suggested, in order to attain a more encyclopedic and neutral tone, removing "peacock" terms, changing format of some of the included items in the InfoBox, changing the use of honorifics in the article text to conform to Wikipedia's guidelines, trying to improve the headings, etc.
There is no doubt that my article, as it had been initially submitted, was too glowing in its praise of the subject. That was undoubtedly a reflection of my own respect for him, and of the praise that was heaped upon him by others after he died. However, it is important for me to bring to your attention that Dr. Harold Weintraub truly WAS greatly loved and respected, and that is part of his legacy which needs to be somehow expressed in his bio.
Please take a second and have a look at one of the obituaries (perhaps Marc Kirschner's) and you will see that Weintraub was an exceptional human being, and a couple of superlatives regarding his personal attributes are certainly not bias. They would simply be reflecting the truth. In recent times, no other scientist has received 3 highly laudatory (and almost maudlin, in retrospect) obituaries from top colleagues in his field. And visitors to the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle have mentioned in their blogs that the institution was still recovering from his death 3 years later. That was how much impact he had on the people, and the place:
http://www.ipscell.com/2012/06/how-ips-cells-germinated-in-part-in-seattle-in-the-1980s/
I believe the readership of Wikipedia would appreciate learning about the life of Harold Weintraub. If the article (as it stands now) continues to have problems fulfilling Wikipedia's requirements, please let me know what else I need to change, and I will do so immediately.
Thanks again, Awgrasso

Hello Onel5969, I resubmitted a draft for the page Draft:PHPClasses_repository but it seems it was not accepted for including copyrighted material.
I have no clue what was copyrighted there because it was created only by myself. Maybe I missed something evident.
Sorry for my lack of experience on this subject but it seems the page was deleted already because I did not see the message sent to me fast enough.
I wonder if you can restore the page and let me know what I need to do to fix the copyright issue and any issues that it may still include if I am still missing anything.
Thanks in advance for your time and patience.

Thank you for your feedback on this article.
I believe that I have exercised appropriate care with the creation of the article, as I do with all my edits and new content.
By the Notability criteria you cited, specifically that pertaining to "Polticians," Bob Littlefield clearly meets the requirements for a "major local political figure." Perhaps you missed that paragraph in the Notability criteria?
The Arizona Republic (online at AZCentral.com) is the newspaper of record for the State of Arizona. If perhaps your issue is with whether Bob Littlefield has "received significant press coverage," you can satisfy yourself with a simple Google search for "site:azcentral.com "Bob Littlefield." I just did so, and got over 3,500 hits, from this one source alone. CORRECTION: 1700 hits, I forgot to close the quotation marks.
Having said all that, if you still believe there is some other reason why Bob Littlefield is not notable, I will gladly receive your advice!
Otherwise, I would appreciate it if you would rescind your review and accept the article. I've put a lot of work into writing and revising it according to the input of others reviewers; who I might add, did not express issue with notability.

Hi, Did you read my talk page and the ongoing issues that occurred with 'API chaining that led to this resubmission? That editors of wikipedia effectively hounded me, removed all my content even though I am a respected conference speaker (of which materials you rejected), my content is being considered for a book, large enterprises are using my work, I just gave another talk in which the entire Netflix API Team was at, etc. Conference materials ARE peer reviewed as previously stated.

Conference materials that are peer reviewed meet peer review guidelines. Have had this ENTIRE discussion. Have went through entire process and had all my articles removed due to biased authors and finally after being attacked repeatedly McMatter had them restore and say resubmit; they DO meet guidelines but may not have enough material yet or may need merged.

@ Onel5969: Regardless the result of the review, I wanted to thank you for taking the time to check my article and for providing useful points to improve the article. I constantly visited the pages Wikipedia:Notability (people) and Wikipedia:VRS to recheck my work. Rest assured I will improve this article because I firmly believe on the subject I am interested on putting on here. Aside from the points you stated, would you be so kind as to state anything more that would help me? Thank you so much. Pmanz2014 ( talk) 22:49, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
Onel5969 Thank you, I truly connected with a whole bunch of wiki editors to check my work every so often. I do not know Mr. DeCosta personally but see his work as something quite outstanding so I follow his work closely and with the articles and interviews I found, I felt he should be on wiki. Should I instead re-create the article under Category:Writer stubs, Category:Business biography stubs, Category:Business organization stubs or Category:Private equity biography stubs then? Pmanz2014 ( talk) 23:34, 17 January 2015 (UTC)
Thank you for clearing the proper way to write on the talk pages. I appreciate it. I sincerely am grateful that you took the time to do the internet search for the sources - humbled by your efforts to really help out.
In line with your feedback, as I am reviewing the articles about DeCosta, coverages by WBN, Stacey of Huffington Post and other media, it is geared towards the effective approaches of his book, Ascend, and as he is the author of it, was naturally recognized. The discussion of his book isn't a mere mention though, it explored the different methods and coaching approaches applied by DeCosta. Pmanz2014 ( talk) 21:09, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
I have followed the guidelines you shared in improving my article and also checked other biographies on wiki. If you have time, please check if I was able to follows through with your pointers. I hope you don't mind, I also posted a request for review in Teahouse so other wikipedians can share what other improvements I can do. I just wanted to receive as much feedback as I can to get my article approved. Again, thank you so very much for your time. Pmanz2014 ( talk) 10:40, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
Once again, Thank you for sharing your expert opinion in line with improving my article. I understand that some blogs/podcast interviews are not considered good sources however as I check other articles on wikipedia, dose of leadership and boomer business are 2 of the most widely used. Can I retain those? Also, how about the sources from WBNW (AM), and his interviews from news media crhoy and el financiero? These are independent ones right? Not mere mentions on these exposures.

On 19 January 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Carolina Neurath, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Swedish journalist Carolina Neurath ventured into acting when she starred as Princess Arianna Ad'lah in the film Star Wars: Threads of Destiny in 2014? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Carolina Neurath. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

I would very much appreciate an explanation in more detail regarding your reason for declining my submission, specifically, the part about notability. I have asked for explanations from others and never got a response. My original intent was to write a more basic article, which could be expanded as time goes on by folks who have more knowledge about the history of the mall. I have attempted to add more detail, but am at a point where I have nothing else I can add to the article. Cascade1988 ( talk) 04:39, 20 January 2015 (UTC)Cascade1988

Hello. Thank you for your evaluation of the article I submitted. I took your concerns and criticisms to heart and tried to edit it according to the suggestions you made. What I did was go back in and strip out anything that may be misconstrued as "advertising" or "promotional." Then I re-worded a few things and combined a few paragraphs...it's not radially different, but it's now been basically cut down to a very direct, to-the-point article.

Hi, just received your review/rejection of the Marilyn Johnson (author) submission, and would love to get your help with Marilyn Johnson's notability.
Her third book was reviewed on 1/18/15 in the New York Times Sunday Book Review, where this was cited: "Johnson has written two previous books about practitioners of unsung trades: “This Book Is Overdue!,” about librarians, and “The Dead Beat,” about obituary writers. Her new subject occupies a similar niche." Is something like this usable/helpful?

You had requested additional evidence for notability, and so I have edited to provide it (see the second paragraph in the article). I believe that the 3AM interview by itself establishes notability, because this interview series includes many extremely prominent philosophers and public intellectuals (Christopher Hitchens, among others). For further support, I referenced some notable mathematicians writing specifically about Hamkins, and I included links to a few places where he is interviewed in the science mass media. Also, his Google Scholar page shows that his research is quite widely cited in the field. And I linked to some of the big general public science events at which he has spoken. His MathOverflow prominence has made him widely known in mathematics.

James S. Forrester_______________________ James S. Forrester III (born July 13, 1937 in Philadelphia, Pa) is an American cardiologist. Education He received his bachelor's degree from Swarthmore College in 1959, and his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1963. Following internship at the hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and internal medical residency at UCLA-Harbor Medical Center, he completed his cardiology fellowship at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital. In the late 1960’s he was appointed Director of Cardiovascular Research at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles [1]. Cardiovascular research career From the early 1970’s to 1990’s Forrester directed a multimillion dollar National Institute of Health research program called a Specialized Center of Research in Ischemic Heart Disease [2] at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. In this 20 year period Cedars-Sinai cardiology was ranked first in the Western United States by U.S. News and World Report, and remains so today [3]. Forrester’s research program made three advances that altered the practice of cardiology. In the 1970’s, he directed the development of hemodynamic monitoring at the bedside, using a balloon-tipped catheter he maneuvered through the heart [4]. He used these measurements to create a method of care for patients with acute myocardial infarction that became known as the Forrester hemodynamic subsets [5]. Hemodynamic monitoring allowed doctors to repeatedly measure the effect of drugs on the function of the heart at the bedside, and revolutionized the care of critically ill patients. In the early 1980s, he and his fellow Dr. George Diamond created the field of probability analysis for coronary heart disease, which became known as the Diamond-Forrester method for interpreting diagnostic tests. Their approach integrated a patient’s pre-test likelihood of having disease with the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnostic test to calculate a patient’s post-test likelihood of disease. The method is now used worldwide in cardiology [6]. In the early 1990s, Forrester led a team that developed coronary angioscopy, a method for seeing inside a living patient’s coronary arteries using a thin flexible fiberoptic catheter. His team discovered the presence of small, partially occlusive blood clots in patients with unstable angina [now called acute coronary syndrome], leading to the modern implementation of antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy in this condition [7]. In later years he became Professor of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, School of Medicine, the George Burns and Gracie Allen Professor of Cardiovascular Research, and Chief of the Division of Cardiology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. In these roles, he served as mentor for several hundred cardiologists, a number of whom are currently leaders in cardiovascular medicine. Dr. Forrester has published over 400 full-length scientific manuscripts and book chapters dealing with these topics. Honors In 2009, he was the second-ever recipient of the American College of Cardiology’s highest honor, the Lifetime Achievement Award. Additional honors include Cable News Network’s 10 Medical Scientists to Watch (1989), the Leon Goodman Award for excellence in laser research, the Distinguished Scientific Achievement Award of the American Heart Association in Los Angeles, the Jan Kellerman Award for research in preventive cardiology, and the 2011 Simon Dack Award for Outstanding Scholarship from the Journal of American College of Cardiology. In 2013 he received the annual Pioneer of Medicine Award from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. At the award ceremony, his colleagues created a 10 minute video describing his career and his contributions to their own careers [9]. In 2014 he was chosen to deliver the lecture celebrating the American College of Cardiology’s 65th Anniversary. In “1949-2014--65 Years of Cardiovascular History”, he described the people and events that changed the care of heart disease in his lifetime. He is the author of “The Heart Healers: The Misfits, Mavericks, and Mavericks Who Created the Greatest Medical Breakthrough of Our Lives”, to be published in November, 2015 by St. Martin’s Press [9]. The book details his personal relationships with the pioneers who created heart surgery, defibrillators, pacemakers, coronary care units, heart imaging, and angioplasty, and tells stories about the emotional impact of these lifesaving advances on his individual patients.

I am the producer of PIlot Error, the screenwriter of the film the author of the book and I wrote the website copy for this film which is also used in the plot summary you are objecting to. I hold the copyright to the website, the film and my book which are the source material to this book. Are you saying that I can not use my own copyrighted description of the film which is appearing on my own website? I know a good deal about copyright law and work with very experienced intellectual property attorneys at Stanford University and here in Michigan and no one has previously told me that I can't quote from my own work.

It is not the same content and I wrote this article specifically for Wikipedia with the key details of his professional experience, as verifiable by independent third-party sources.

I've added the references that I thought I need, but it never seems to pass. Is there a way to find out EXACTLY which references are objectionable?

My article submission on Reddal (company) was declined by you and I would like to get tips how to improve it in order it to get approved.

My article on Aerodynamic Whistles was rejected because there exists an article on whistles. I suggest that the reviewer review both articles; he would find the rejected article is an enormous upgrade on the exiting article (from description to science) more in keeping with my original Scientific American article. The suggestion was to add to the existing article. That would entail copying almost all of the rejected article information to the existing article (considerable effort). Unfortunately, some of the existing article is erroneous and needs deleting. My primary objection is the existing article title: whistle. It does not exclude other forms of whistles (non acoustical). It would be better to incorporate some of the existing article into the rejected article.
I have spent considerable time and effort developing the article and to have it rejected based on title is hardly acceptable. I would appreciate hearing from you how we might resolve this issue.

Fbell74 - It's both, but there's also a third reason, and that's there are a ton of folks who don't want to learn. I'd say that about half of the older submissions have been declined at least once, and many several times. This tends to only exacerbate the clog. I think that's why when an editor has someone, like you, who asks for help, and then puts in the effort, we try to help however we can. Happy editing. Onel5969 ( talk) 02:27, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Onel5969
I'd like to provide the following reference for the Battle of Chesterfield:
The Battle of Chesterfield took place in 1266 when a band of rebellious barons were defeated by a royalist army.
Pegge, Samuel (1769). "A succinct and authentic narrative of the Battle of Chesterfield, A.D 1266 in the reign of King Henry III". Archaeologica. XXXVI: 276–285.

Hi! It appears that the aforesaid article, written by myself, was rejected by yourself as it may have infringed copyright. After a quick investigation, it appears that the article infringed IMDb. I'd just like to point out that I also wrote the inclusion on IMDb. It isn't easy to change the wording too much, as there is only a small amount of information about Frank that I want to write. Does this still count as 'copyright' if I wrote both articles? Regards, Denby Spinks — Preceding unsigned comment added by DenbySpinks ( talk • contribs) 17:41, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
Hi. Well, by definition I give the rights to WP. I understand why IMDb is not considered a reliable source. However in this instance, it wasn't used as such. Of the two links that I submitted, one was a famous motoring journalist paying tribute to Frank, which confirmed his existence, where he'd worked, and when he had died, and the other, if I remember rightly, was a link to the Guild of Motoring Writers, which showed Frank's details and confirmed his previous chairmanship. It was only a short piece; basically, "Well liked motoring journalist" lived and died et al. If you could be more specific about the 'information' within the piece that seems to be causing a problem, I will endeavour to supply any references/links that I can. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DenbySpinks ( talk • contribs) 08:33, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
Under such a scenario, there would be no doubt you were the copyright owner of the creative expression (in this case, text). As such you would have the right to license it for someone else's one-time use and retain non-free copyright over the original. Such dispensation is common but it's useless at Wikipedia. We cannot agree to that because our licenses require that our end users (our readers) have the ability to take most content they see here and use (or modify) that content for their own ends, even for commercial uses (our free licenses only require that they provide attribution to our editors as the source). So, what we require is a release of the content to be used here to the world, under a compatibly free copyright license (or into the public domain).
That is all well and good except that in order to do so, we can't just take someone's word for it: "I'm releasing it"; we need something much more rigorous, some proof that the person who is releasing the content is the actual owner and their specific statement/form of release shown in a verifiable way. One way, for example, is for the author of the content, at the external site where the content comes from, to post the release right there (in place of any non-free copyright notice, if there was one), so that when you visit the website, that release is on view (it can also be archived using {{ Text release}}). Such a release might look like this:
The text of this page is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License (unversioned, with no invariant sections, front-cover texts, or back-cover texts).
Another way is to provide a release through an email from a domain name associated with the external site. See Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries.
Okay, now hopefully you understand the playing field a bit. Here's the problem though. How would you go about proving you were the person who posted the material to IMDb? I'm not saying it's impossible but I see no clear way you could do so. Best regards-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 23:56, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
This is very old now, but unfortunately I did not receive a notification of this. I'm not sure whether the input by Fuhghettaboutit is disingenuous, but I'll accept it at 'face value'. Firstly, I do understand the points of note and was aware of some of them, unlike everyone involved. I wasn't using that as a 'release', merely bringing to the attention of Wikipedia that I wrote both items, and was not some kind of plagarist, (as was by default, seemingly being alluded to), and that the facts of the two postings may have some relevance to the copyright issue. I understand the difficulties involved due to the useage of Wikipedia. These two points may be of interest, 1) The piece on IMDb is 'signed' by myself, and is displayed within 'my contributions'. 2) The said item was actually submitted to Wikipedia BEFORE IMDb. It was posted on IMDb first as there is not the same criteria on the aforesaid site.
So not only is the item in question undeniably mine, but it was actually posted on Wiki first.
But 'Hey Ho!' Delete and refuse before you're acquainted with the facts or have asked any questions.
However I do accept that with this being displayed on IMDb first, and the rigorous copyright requirements of Wikipedia, it may now be impossible to post this.
I will not be rewriting or re-posting. -- DenbySpinks ( talk) 00:20, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Your comment for us was 'The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.'
Just to clarify, we just need to put in footnotes to cite the information we gathered from each of the references we listed under the references section? Do we need to do anything further with the actual references we provided?
If you can provide any more information it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time.

Dear Onel5969, I noticed that the draft I submitted about Mauricio Garcia Araujo wasn’t accepted. Mauricio Garcia Araujo is a notable person in Venezuela. He was the president of Central Bank of Venezuela between 1987 and 1989. He was also an iconic person in the public sector for directing different enterprises key to the country’s economy. He is also relevant for advising family business and being in the board of directors of many different private companies. Mauricio Garcia Araujo published different articles (listed in the draft) relevant to Venezuela’s oil economy. One of his articles is used as reference in the definition of Colegio Humboldt, Caracas.

Hi Onel,
I am looking to take the article to peer review soon and, ultimately, GA/FA. You seem at least somewhat interested in improving the article, so I thought you could help me out in making some fixes before I send it. Of primary concern is the main reason it was denied GA two years ago, which is its lack of referencing in certain sections. The third paragraph in
Writing is rather bare, along with the
Cinematic and literary allusions section; the
Soundtrack section is almost entirely uncited. Do you have the time and desire to help me get these sections up to par for a GAN? I was working with
Mediran previously but they seem to have rather disappeared. Thanks,

Hi Onel5969,
Thank you very much for your helpful editorial recommendations for my bio on Harold Weintraub, which was my first biographical submission (my only other article was about a stereo amplifier!) I have very studiously made the changes you suggested, in order to attain a more encyclopedic and neutral tone, removing "peacock" terms, changing format of some of the included items in the InfoBox, changing the use of honorifics in the article text to conform to Wikipedia's guidelines, trying to improve the headings, etc.
There is no doubt that my article, as it had been initially submitted, was too glowing in its praise of the subject. That was undoubtedly a reflection of my own respect for him, and of the praise that was heaped upon him by others after he died. However, it is important for me to bring to your attention that Dr. Harold Weintraub truly WAS greatly loved and respected, and that is part of his legacy which needs to be somehow expressed in his bio.
Please take a second and have a look at one of the obituaries (perhaps Marc Kirschner's) and you will see that Weintraub was an exceptional human being, and a couple of superlatives regarding his personal attributes are certainly not bias. They would simply be reflecting the truth. In recent times, no other scientist has received 3 highly laudatory (and almost maudlin, in retrospect) obituaries from top colleagues in his field. And visitors to the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle have mentioned in their blogs that the institution was still recovering from his death 3 years later. That was how much impact he had on the people, and the place:
http://www.ipscell.com/2012/06/how-ips-cells-germinated-in-part-in-seattle-in-the-1980s/
I believe the readership of Wikipedia would appreciate learning about the life of Harold Weintraub. If the article (as it stands now) continues to have problems fulfilling Wikipedia's requirements, please let me know what else I need to change, and I will do so immediately.
Thanks again, Awgrasso

Hello Onel5969, I resubmitted a draft for the page Draft:PHPClasses_repository but it seems it was not accepted for including copyrighted material.
I have no clue what was copyrighted there because it was created only by myself. Maybe I missed something evident.
Sorry for my lack of experience on this subject but it seems the page was deleted already because I did not see the message sent to me fast enough.
I wonder if you can restore the page and let me know what I need to do to fix the copyright issue and any issues that it may still include if I am still missing anything.

Thank you for your feedback on this article.
I believe that I have exercised appropriate care with the creation of the article, as I do with all my edits and new content.
By the Notability criteria you cited, specifically that pertaining to "Polticians," Bob Littlefield clearly meets the requirements for a "major local political figure." Perhaps you missed that paragraph in the Notability criteria?
The Arizona Republic (online at AZCentral.com) is the newspaper of record for the State of Arizona. If perhaps your issue is with whether Bob Littlefield has "received significant press coverage," you can satisfy yourself with a simple Google search for "site:azcentral.com "Bob Littlefield." I just did so, and got over 3,500 hits, from this one source alone. CORRECTION: 1700 hits, I forgot to close the quotation marks.
Having said all that, if you still believe there is some other reason why Bob Littlefield is not notable, I will gladly receive your advice!
Otherwise, I would appreciate it if you would rescind your review and accept the article. I've put a lot of work into writing and revising it according to the input of others reviewers; who I might add, did not express issue with notability.

In line with your feedback, as I am reviewing the articles about DeCosta, coverages by WBN, Stacey of Huffington Post and other media, it is geared towards the effective approaches of his book, Ascend, and as he is the author of it, was naturally recognized.

Hello. Thank you for your evaluation of the article I submitted. I took your concerns and criticisms to heart and tried to edit it according to the suggestions you made.

Her third book was reviewed on 1/18/15 in the New York Times Sunday Book Review, where this was cited: "Johnson has written two previous books about practitioners of unsung trades: “This Book Is Overdue!,” about librarians, and “The Dead Beat,” about obituary writers. Her new subject occupies a similar niche." Is something like this usable/helpful? Where should I incorporate this into her article?

I nominated the article for a GA. Although it doesn't need much work, it'll greatly benefit if you could just copy-edit it a bit. I was referred to you by Ssven2, who would be reviewing the article. Thanks in advance! Ethically Yours! 17:24, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
Just a reminder of your copyedit. — Ssven2 speak 2 me 03:42, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
You had requested additional evidence for notability, and so I have edited to provide it (see the second paragraph in the article). I believe that the 3AM interview by itself establishes notability, because this interview series includes many extremely prominent philosophers and public intellectuals (Christopher Hitchens, among others). For further support, I referenced some notable mathematicians writing specifically about Hamkins, and I included links to a few places where he is interviewed in the science mass media. Also, his Google Scholar page shows that his research is quite widely cited in the field. And I linked to some of the big general public science events at which he has spoken. His MathOverflow prominence has made him widely known in mathematics.

Okay, I started the page for the game Primal Carnage Extinction a while back. Since it'd been nearly two months without it getting reviewed i hadn't been checking in too often and only just now saw that it'd been rejected due to "copyrighted information" ...?
It would have been helpful to at least say what information was "copyrighted". I really don't understand what the issue is? I tried to find the article to see what could have been the problem but it looks like it's been deleted now?

Hi One15969 Thank very much for the time you invest in your many constructive critiques, and mine in particular. You noted my original text was not neutral and not in an encyclopedic style. My revised version below aims for a neutral, encyclopedic style, with a verifiable reference for each statement. This being my first resubmission to Wikipedia, I hope I am doing it correctly: I have the original submission with tracked changes in WORD format if you prefer.

James S. Forrester_______________________ James S. Forrester III (born July 13, 1937 in Philadelphia, Pa) is an American cardiologist. Education He received his bachelor's degree from Swarthmore College in 1959, and his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1963. Following internship at the hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, and internal medical residency at UCLA-Harbor Medical Center, he completed his cardiology fellowship at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital. In the late 1960’s he was appointed Director of Cardiovascular Research at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles [1]. Cardiovascular research career From the early 1970’s to 1990’s Forrester directed a multimillion dollar National Institute of Health research program called a Specialized Center of Research in Ischemic Heart Disease [2] at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. In this 20 year period Cedars-Sinai cardiology was ranked first in the Western United States by U.S. News and World Report, and remains so today [3]. Forrester’s research program made three advances that altered the practice of cardiology. In the 1970’s, he directed the development of hemodynamic monitoring at the bedside, using a balloon-tipped catheter he maneuvered through the heart [4]. He used these measurements to create a method of care for patients with acute myocardial infarction that became known as the Forrester hemodynamic subsets [5]. Hemodynamic monitoring allowed doctors to repeatedly measure the effect of drugs on the function of the heart at the bedside, and revolutionized the care of critically ill patients. In the early 1980s, he and his fellow Dr. George Diamond created the field of probability analysis for coronary heart disease, which became known as the Diamond-Forrester method for interpreting diagnostic tests. Their approach integrated a patient’s pre-test likelihood of having disease with the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnostic test to calculate a patient’s post-test likelihood of disease. The method is now used worldwide in cardiology [6]. In the early 1990s, Forrester led a team that developed coronary angioscopy, a method for seeing inside a living patient’s coronary arteries using a thin flexible fiberoptic catheter. His team discovered the presence of small, partially occlusive blood clots in patients with unstable angina [now called acute coronary syndrome], leading to the modern implementation of antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy in this condition [7]. In later years he became Professor of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, School of Medicine, the George Burns and Gracie Allen Professor of Cardiovascular Research, and Chief of the Division of Cardiology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. In these roles, he served as mentor for several hundred cardiologists, a number of whom are currently leaders in cardiovascular medicine. Dr. Forrester has published over 400 full-length scientific manuscripts and book chapters dealing with these topics. Honors In 2009, he was the second-ever recipient of the American College of Cardiology’s highest honor, the Lifetime Achievement Award. Additional honors include Cable News Network’s 10 Medical Scientists to Watch (1989), the Leon Goodman Award for excellence in laser research, the Distinguished Scientific Achievement Award of the American Heart Association in Los Angeles, the Jan Kellerman Award for research in preventive cardiology, and the 2011 Simon Dack Award for Outstanding Scholarship from the Journal of American College of Cardiology. In 2013 he received the annual Pioneer of Medicine Award from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. At the award ceremony, his colleagues created a 10 minute video describing his career and his contributions to their own careers [9]. In 2014 he was chosen to deliver the lecture celebrating the American College of Cardiology’s 65th Anniversary. In “1949-2014--65 Years of Cardiovascular History”, he described the people and events that changed the care of heart disease in his lifetime. He is the author of “The Heart Healers: The Misfits, Mavericks, and Mavericks Who Created the Greatest Medical Breakthrough of Our Lives”, to be published in November, 2015 by St. Martin’s Press [9]. The book details his personal relationships with the pioneers who created heart surgery, defibrillators, pacemakers, coronary care units, heart imaging, and angioplasty, and tells stories about the emotional impact of these lifesaving advances on his individual patients.

I am the producer of PIlot Error, the screenwriter of the film the author of the book and I wrote the website copy for this film which is also used in the plot summary you are objecting to. I hold the copyright to the website, the film and my book which are the source material to this book. Are you saying that I can not use my own copyrighted description of the film which is appearing on my own website? I know a good deal about copyright law and work with very experienced intellectual property attorneys at Stanford University and here in Michigan and no one has previously told me that I can't quote from my own work.
I am also not clear about which formatting issues you are referring to. If you will spell them out I will of course fix them.

THank you for your comments. I am Roger Rapoport and I hold the copyright to the film Pilot Error as well as the website. Thus the plot summary that I used was one that I created. Nonetheless I have gone ahead and written a different plot summary just in case you feel this is a problem.

Hello, I am respectfully requesting a re-review for my page on Breda Ennis. I recognize that not all my references are available online, but I do have hard copy submissions of all newspaper articles, and older textbook items. In all cases, I endeavored to give as much information as possible about the sources.
If there are certain sources that you would like removed, I will happily do so, but a few non-online articles should not impede Breda Ennis having a Wikipedia page. She is a greatly respected international artist.
Thank you for your consideration.

Hi Onel5969,
Dazzlepartners.com is the website of David Grizzle's consulting firm, Dazzle Partners, LLC (described in the article). It is not the same content and I wrote this article specifically for Wikipedia with the key details of his professional experience, as verifiable by independent third-party sources. He is a friend and a notable figure--former CEO of the FAA. I did give input on the content for his website, but all of this is original to me.
Please help me understand how he can simultaneously have his professional biography on his website while also on Wikipedia...the information is just the facts. Not sure how else to say it.

During the last few months I've rewritten the article to take out certain phrases like 'the voice of business news in l.a.' and other suggestions. Each time I get a general note back saying that the article lacks references.
I've added the references that I thought I need, but it never seems to pass. Is there a way to find out EXACTLY which references are objectionable? Frank has a long and documented history as a prominent newscaster here in L.A., yet I see other media personalities with less accomplishments and NO references published here on Wikipedia.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hi Onel5969,
My article submission on Reddal (company) was declined by you and I would like to get tips how to improve it in order it to get approved. In the reasoning it was said that "Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. " In the references there were three different independent, reliable and published sources which were used in the article. So I am wondering what should I do in order to improve the article.
Thanks in advance for your help!

My article on Aerodynamic Whistles was rejected because there exists an article on whistles. I suggest that the reviewer review both articles; he would find the rejected article is an enormous upgrade on the exiting article (from description to science) more in keeping with my original Scientific American article. The suggestion was to add to the existing article. That would entail copying almost all of the rejected article information to the existing article (considerable effort). Unfortunately, some of the existing article is erroneous and needs deleting. My primary objection is the existing article title: whistle. It does not exclude other forms of whistles (non acoustical). It would be better to incorporate some of the existing article into the rejected article.
I have spent considerable time and effort developing the article and to have it rejected based on title is hardly acceptable. I would appreciate hearing from you how we might resolve this issue.
