October 20 Information

I would like to have my own page on Wikipedia, but apparently can't write it myself. Elite Wiki Writers appears to offer a solution.

BTW, the current version of my article, written by me, looks like this, but I have more links to audio and video to ad.

Ty Ford Born Melville Tyree Stockwell, 8/19/48 in Baltimore, MD., he is the only son of Julia Malone Tyree and Melville Cornelius Stockwell. After the untimely death of his father Melville at 54 years of age from rapid onset Alzheimers disease [1], his mother remarried to Stephen Hyland Ford, IV. Tyree was adopted by Stephen Hyland Ford, IV. His name was then changed to Tyree Stockwell Ford. He is the great grandson of Admiral George Wallace Melville [2]; naval engineer, Arctic explorer, author. Growing up in the Annapolis, Frederick, Baltimore Maryland, Washington quadrangle, Ty Ford graduated from Severn School in Severna Park, MD in 1966.

From 1969 until 1986, he was engaged in radio broadcasting, working in a uniquely wide range of modalities, often simultaneously as an announcer, production director, chief engineer and operations manager at radio stations in Laurel, MD, Washington, DC and Baltimore, MD.

For the inclusion of an article about a person, the criteria set forth in Notability need to be satisfied. If any editor (possibly a company paid by the subject) adds an article for which these criteria are not met, it will be deleted.  -- Lambiam 09:08, 21 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Your article does not appear to satisfy Wikipedia's definition of notability. Clarityfiend ( talk) 13:10, 21 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Our definition of notability applies to the topic of an article, not to its content. To establish that a topic does not meet the general notability guideline, one needs to show that it has not received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. This is something that can only be done by a diligent search and cannot be judged by the appearance of a text on the topic.  -- Lambiam 18:22, 21 October 2023 (UTC) reply

I'm not a noob. I have searched and come up empty. Clarityfiend ( talk) 03:27, 22 October 2023 (UTC) reply

The person you were addressing in that remark would not know that.  -- Lambiam 08:33, 22 October 2023 (UTC) reply

You're being pedantic. Clarityfiend's point is perfectly clear: that the article does not demonstrate notability through the inclusion of references to reliable sources. -- Viennese Waltz 08:46, 23 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Apparently there are references ([1], [2], ...), but they are not included in the text above. Since they mostly appear to reference verifiable facts, many can probably be sourced to reliable sources. The bottleneck is more likely to be the in-depth coverage (for the GNG) or the lack of a contribution of historical significance. There is currently no requirement for articles to demonstrate notability, as long as they indicate why the subject is important or significant. This can of course be challenged, and then the burden of proof is on those who wish to see the article kept. An apparent lack of sources does not necessarily mean they do not exist. I have been surprised before, having sought in vain for sources to start an article about a person who I thought was sufficiently important, to see someone else succeed where I failed.  -- Lambiam 10:19, 23 October 2023 (UTC) reply
