Hello, I would like to know if the image from this website https://bugguide.net/node/view/833514 is able to be uploaded to Wikipedia? I am asking this question because it says nothing about what the rights to the image are (as far as I can see). I would also like to know if there are images showing the hong glorious beetle which I can use for the article (obviously going to look for what the right to the possible image would be). The only thing it says is the date which it got copyrighted (2013) and the person which owns(?) the photo. thanks.

Well, what if it doesn't say anything about the rights it has? like this this image of Hong Guerreroi which I found on the source I used to make my

Hi @teahouse. I have recently drafted a page and it has been declined because;
- (1) "This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia" and - (2) "This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. 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. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. "

Dear Teahouse community,
I am reaching out to learn if you could help in the review process of an article I've edited about human rights in the digital era in the Caribbean. The article is the result of a Wiki edtiathon we did with different regional and international organisations. We look forward to encourage more people to edit our Wiki article. The results and participants of this process would be presented at Mozilla Festival by the beginning of March. For these reasons we would highly value any recommendation or support to fast-forward the article's review.
Thank you in adance for your time and consideration!

Hi - sorry if this information is already somewhere. I'm really overwhelmed by how much information there is about editing Wikipedia pages and could use some guidance.
There's a film that I spent all last semester researching for a big essay project (I'm a university student) and the film's Wikipedia page is still just a stub so I feel like I'm a good candidate to expand it. However, I'm really unclear on what counts as a reliable source for a film. Pretty much all the information I have on the film comes from film reviews and interviews with the director - I just haven't found anything else written about it (it came out in 2020).
Here is what my instinct is:
1. If an opinion on/attitude towards the film is expressed across several reviews, I could potentially use those articles as sources for stating that the film is perceived a certain way. But information expressed as fact in reviews can't be used unless I can verify it with another source I know to be trustworthy. This is a problem since pretty much all the available information about the film that isn't coming directly from the film's director is contained in reviews. And if they are usable, I have a bunch of other questions about that!
2. The director makes a lot of claims but I should verify them elsewhere before using them. I don't know that it's even possible to verify a lot of what he says, but he makes certain assertions about the film that I would definitely want to include if I could confirm them (for example, that the film is the first of its kind in a certain category). If he is making a claim about himself, for instance about his inspiration for the film, could I use that on its own or is anything like that too opinion-y to go on a Wikipedia page? Is anything the director says usable on its own or does it all need to be verified unless I'm presenting it solely as his opinion?
Are my thoughts correct or am I way off base? Where do you get reliable information about a film that was made too recently to have any film journal articles written about it?
I didn't initially say what the film is because it felt a little embarrassing, but it's Ainu Mosir. I speak Japanese so I could look for Japanese-language sources, but it would be a bit of a pain.
Thanks so much for any help! MenoEnds ( talk) 03:20, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Can you please confirm whether or not I can use Internet Movie Database and Turner Classic Movies database as sources? As well as the British Film Institute database, the National Film Board of Canada database and the Broadway League database? I've been told not to. However, without these databases, it is impossible to complete the filmographies of performers and, in many cases, the discographies of musicians and bands. It is impossible to confirm what they (and their publicists) have written on Wikipedia. And without complete filmographies and/or discographies, biographies are incomplete and/or incorrect. Thanks LJA123 ( talk) 00:33, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Oh I see.... But when it comes to soundtracks and production credits, you need to see the physical list. Although I suppose that people could find the movie (if it's still available) and look for non-performing credits. But that kind of defeats the purpose of Wikipedia as a reference tool.-- LJA123 ( talk) 01:21, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
OK thanks. One more question: I've been over the YouTube thing already today (I can use obviously trustworthy sources). But can I use music tracks uploaded to YouTube from the albums which the YouTube users own? Not videos--just the songs. If a film, in itself, is a source, then surely a recorded song must also be a source? Regardless of how it came to be online? Thanks!-- LJA123 ( talk) 07:37, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
Oh we can use Apple and Spotify...I thought they'd be less accepted. I've been avoiding them because musician pages sometimes use them as encouragements to purchase. In the case of a lot of old music, or music that's more obscure, people load entire albums onto YouTube, and that's the only record of that music. So it's good to upload it, so people can find it and it's not lost. Also good to know that I can use official band videos. That's great, thanks very much.-- LJA123 ( talk) 16:25, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

I was reading the article Squid Game and it was said that the show was critically acclaimed. The source from this came from an article from Salon saying that the show received acclaim, and that source was used instead of the Metacritic one, which claims that it has "positive reviews." I did some research on it and there was a talk page discussion saying that reliable sources that say "this show is acclaimed" (if they exist) are used primarily before aggregator sites such as Metacritic.
Is this true? Is there any policy/guideline/essay that says that we use sources that describe a critical reception first before general consensus sites such as metacritic? I'm having a dispute over a similar thing at another article, and would like to back my stuff up with actual guidelines/policies. Thank you! shanghai. talk to me 07:09, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Keep Colorado Wild, alot just happened and it's probably incredibly frustrating. Wikipedia wants the article improved. We want the world to know more about notable academics who have been cited thousands of times in their field and why they have been cited so many times. The best thing you can do for the subject is help find reliable sources that discuss his contributions and life story. WP:ABOUTSELF covers what can be included about the subject in their own published words. Additionally, presumably in those thousands of times their work has been cited, notable theories or contributions by the subject have been discussed. There are projects that can help guide, just requires research and a willingness to edit within the rules of wikipedia. Slywriter ( talk) 04:32, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Regarding: Draft:Peter M. Walzer
I submitted this to the AFC help desk and haven't seen any responses so far. Please pardon my ignorance. While I have edited small things before, this is my first solo flight.
This article entry was declined for sounding like an advertisement. There was no particular reference to content areas in the article that are at fault, just a generalization. This was paired with a comment that it was also declined for not having sufficient independent references. While there is a section of bibliographic works, none of these are used in citations. There are 70 citations with the exception of 3 or 4, from sources the subject does not control. Of these 3 or 4 citations, they were used to confirm an interview topic with a mass market media source the subject does not control. Having seen numerous attorney articles with less citations or relevance, I understand it is no fair to compare, it would be good to understand how to get this article in a better position.
To that end my questions remain:
1) What areas of the entry are violating a neutral statement of facts? 2) There are 70 citations from international media organizations down to local media sources, from broadcast news to industry trades. Are these not enough? If so, what type of citations will be needed?
I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Garvin Carter ( talk) 22:19, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
Walzer’s dedication to the profession of family law is apparent in his long-term commitment to leadership within industry organizations and in prolific legal scholarship and teaching.

Peter Walzer is a highly distinguished professional having received peer recognition from the family law organizations he has served, which also shouldn't be in Wikipedia's voice. It says nothing about which organisations he's received peer recognition from.

Can someone please tell explain why there were so many attacks and AFD's on several national-level "old-school" drum and bugle corps in October 2021? Several admins made an agreement in October to do AFD on many drum and bugle corps articles - both championship level corps and non-championship level corps. One editor deleted an article with many years of scores (showing finalist placements for years 1959-1973) with only an explanation that it was "cruft" information. (Not mentioning any user names here, but proof can be obtained that this agreement was made in October, on their user talk pages, and several admins went to work do the RFD pages for numerous drum and bugle corps.)

Hi, In the abovementioned article it is mentioned that "On 13 November 1840 Belle Alliance arrived at Saint Helena. Two days later her passengers and crew joined the procession that carried Napoleon's body from his grave to the wharf where it was to be conveyed to France to be reburied. The crew of Belle Alliance wore ribbons around their hats with in letters of gold La Belle Alliance". I have done extensive work on this ship's information and believe this entry is incorrect. Napoleon fought a battle at La Belle Alliance, but the ship that took his body back to France was the "LA BELLE POULE" and not La Belle Alliance.
Can someone either prove me wrong or help to correct the Wikipedia entry please?
Please see my article https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1512694188890297&id=109096649250065

To Whom It May Concern,
I am very confused about notability guidelines, and have several questions about them. I know my article needs major revisions in several areas; I am not asking about the current content of the article, but rather how I might demonstrate notability of my subject.
1. Are the guidelines for notability different for academics than for individuals in the general biography category? The Wikipedia page addressing notability for academics states "This guideline [academic notability] is independent from the other subject-specific notability guidelines, such as WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:AUTH, etc., and is explicitly listed as an alternative to the general notability guideline.[1]" ( /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)#Citation_metrics). It seems this statement asserts that there is a different set of guidelines that may be applied to academics to determine their notability. Is this correct?
2. I am not sure how to navigate criterion #1. It states that "The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work..." My subject's works are cited by others, but how do I know if they are cited frequently enough? According to Google Scholar, one book is cited 78x, another 45x, another 33x, yet another 22x, and still another 11x. Is this considered frequent in the niche realm of evangelical/confessional preaching? How might I determine this?
3. This brings up another question: The specific guidelines for criterion #1 note "(f) For the purposes of satisfying Criterion 1, the academic discipline of the person in question needs to be sufficiently broadly construed." Is evangelical homiletics/preaching too narrow to adequately judge using these guidelines?
I think the subject of my article qualifies as notable under at lease one or two of the criteria. The page notes "Academics meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable."
4. According to the guidelines, criterion #5 is met if "The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon." Under the specific criteria for this category are three elements: "(a) For documenting that a person has held such an appointment (but not for a judgement of whether or not the institution is a major one), publications of the appointing institution are considered a reliable source. (b) Criterion 5 can be applied reliably only for persons who are tenured at the full professor level, and not for junior faculty members with endowed appointments. (c) Major institutions, for these purposes, are those that have a reputation for excellence or selectivity. Named chairs at other institutions are not necessarily sufficient to establish notability."
My professor holds a named (endowed chair), and is a fully tenured, senior faculty member. He is also the director of a graduate program at Baylor University. Baylor University recently was named an R1 institution in recognition for its research activity. Do these facts satisfy the requirements of criterion #5 for the notability of academics?
5. The specific criterion c states that "(c) The publication of an anniversary or memorial journal volume or a Festschrift dedicated to a particular person is usually enough to satisfy Criterion 1, except in the case of publication in vanity, fringe, or non-selective journals or presses."
My professor has a Festschrift written in his honor by a non-vanity press (Wipf and Stock). Does satisfying this criterion meet the notability requirements for an academic?
My professor wants me to continue to try and get the article about him approved; the more specific responses are, the better I will be able to communicate to him why the article may or may not be approved.
I appreciate any guidance you can give in this matter. Dgregory4 ( talk) 23:28, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello - I'm a novice editor and I'm having trouble dealing with persistent disruptive editing I've seen on two pages - Military Intelligence and Reconnaissance (Egypt) and General Intelligence Directorate (Egypt). The edits consist of:
and more recently,
These are only some examples of these edits. These are pretty clearly coming from one person, and I have twice filed sockpuppet investigations which successfully resulted in blocks, but as this is now the third occurrence of socking to continue, I'm wondering what I can do to help make it more likely this does not persist. I have been trying to familiarize myself with the ins and outs of this community's processes for dealing with problematic edits, but I am unsure what to do here as this seems to fit into multiple categories. Just reporting the newest account as a sockpuppet again seems like it would be limited in its effectiveness considering the user demonstrates the ability to continue editing after blocks have been put in place. What is the appropriate next step for an editor like myself in this situation? Bring it up at the AIV noticeboard? Request protection for the pages? Edit warring noticeboard? Report the sockpuppet again and move on? Help me learn :) Thanks! Mkcaldwell ( talk) 23:10, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

"In none of the sources does it say any other person than B. Lierberman...". So, why then did you reply to me above referring to a
Victor B. Liebermanand going so far as to redlinking that name? Maybe you were thrown by the crackpot comment in 2014 in one of the 100% unreliable sources from a Christian ministry that you also linked to above where a 'Victor B.' suggested that the fossils proved the theory of the biblical flood.

Hello,
WikipediaNeko. A stub is defined as an article deemed too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject.
Also, an article that, although providing some useful information, lacks the breadth of coverage expected from an encyclopedia, and that is capable of expansion.
So, the first definition is more restrictive but both are useful. In my opinion, a stub is often equivalent to a database inquiry, contains a few data points about the topic, but lacks written original prose summarizing
significant coverage in
independent reliable sources discussing the topic. I see a lot of articles tagged as stubs that actually provide a pretty decent beginning overview of the topic. I routinely upgrade those articles to "Start".

Hello! So I've run into some kind of an issue. On Nintendo Switch Sports (which I don't think is notable enough for an article yet but that's besides the point right now) a user is saying that while the sources that are independent and secondary and not directly connected to the subject say the game is a direct sequel to Wii Sports, Nintendo themselves say it's the 3rd main entry in the Wii Sports series of titles, making it a direct sequel to Wii Sports Resort. I'm fairly sure we're supposed to go by what the secondary, independent, reliable sources say and not what Nintendo officially says, however I'd rather know for sure instead of reverting on an assumption I have that could be incorrect. ― Blaze Wolf TalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:44, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, on the page 2000s there is a Decadebox template. In this template, it says that the year 2000 was part of the 21st century. However, because the Gregorian Calender isn't 0-indexed (that is, there is 1 BC and 1 AD but no year 0 in the Gregorian Calendar), the first century is from year 1 to year 100, second century from 101 to 200, et cetera, 21st century from 2001 to 2100.

About the invention and historical development efforts of Pinned Buried Photodiode by Yoshiaki Hagiwara The first pinned photodiode (PPD) and the Buried Photodiode (BP) both have a shallow P+ implant in N type diffusion layer over a P-type substrate layer. PPD is always BP. PPD does not have the image lag. But BP may have the serious image lag problem. PPD is also not to be confused with the PIN photodiode.[21]. The first PPD with the no-image lag, the low-surface dark current and the high short-wave blue light sensitivity features was invented in 1975 by Hagiwara at Sony.[1] The evidence is given by Japanese patent application JPA1975-127646 [2], JPA1975-127647 [3] and JPA1985-134985 [4] on the double and triple junction type PPD with the vertical overflow drain (VOD) structures with anti-blooming function capability and Global Shutter function with VOD Punch-thru mode clocking-scheme, achieved the electric shutter function by Hagiwara team at Sony [5]. Sony developed the first double junction type PPD and use it in FT CCD in 1978 [6]. This was the first invention of the pinned photodiode (PPD), a photodetector structure with low lag, low noise, high quantum efficiency and low dark current. Early charge-coupled device image sensors with the single N+P photodiode with the N+ floating surface suffered from shutter lag. The serious image lag was largely resolved in 1978 [6][7][8]developed by Hagiwara and his coworkers in 1987 [9] at Sony by 1987. The PPD was used in CCD sensors in the past analog TV era and is now still used in the present digital TV era in CMOS active-pixel sensors. In 1980, BP was used in ILT CCD by Nobukazu Teranishi, Hiromitsu Shiraki and Yasuo Ishihara at NEC [22][23] They reported in public that lag can be eliminated if the signal carriers could be transferred from the photodiode to the CCD. [24] The BP with the serious image lag problem was further developed and used in ILT CCD by Teranishi and Ishihara with A. Kohono, E. Oda and K. Arai in 1982, with the addition of an anti-blooming structure.[22][24] The BP proposed in 1980 and developed in 1982 by NEC [22][23] reported the serious image lag problem, which was by definition not PPD. BP is not always PPD. [21]. The photodetector structure invented in 1975 by Hagiwara at Sony was given the name "pinned photodiode" (PPD) by B.C. Burkey at Kodak in 1984. In 1987, the PPD mainly developed by Sony [9] began to be incorporated into most CCD sensors, becoming a fixture in consumer electronic video cameras and then digital still cameras.[22] In 1994, Eric Fossum, while working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), proposed an improvement to the CMOS sensor: the integration of the pinned photodiode. A CMOS sensor with PPD technology was first fabricated in 1995 by a joint JPL and Kodak team that included Fossum along with P.P.K. Lee, R.C. Gee, R.M. Guidash and T.H. Lee. Since then, the PPD has been used in nearly all CMOS sensors. The CMOS sensor with PPD technology was further advanced and refined by R.M. Guidash in 1997, K. Yonemoto and H. Sumi in 2000, and I. Inoue in 2003. This led to CMOS sensors achieve imaging performance on par with CCD sensors, and later exceeding CCD sensors.[22] Reference to be added by proper numbering: [1] Yoshiaki Hagiwara, “Invention and Historical Development Efforts of Pinned Buried Photodiode”, Proc. of the International Conference on Electrical, Computer and Energy Technologies (ICECET) 9-10 December 2021, Cape Town-South Africa Should be linked to the following site for details. https://202011282002569657330.onamaeweb.jp/AIPS_Library/P2021_ICECET2021Paper75_PWD_897_992_647_542_870_423_776_till_Dec_10_2021/ICECET2021_Paper75.pdf [2] Yoshiaki Hagiwara, Japanese Patent Application JPA 1975-127646 on N+NP+NP-P+ Triple Junction Type Pinned Photodiode with Back Light Illumination with the CCD/MOS Buffer Memory for Global Shutter Function.

Thank you for writing to me. Since being invited by Professor Dave ( Burgenhaug ??) have posted and published a great deal of material. The last publishing I think was the 9th one and was advised to keep posting. Advice that was given earlier that the material can be polished up where necessary over time. Have explained that at 94 years of age the plethora of detail required in Wikiuni is now outside my capacity to digest. The Wikiuni open University seemed to me the best opportunity to disseminate the material that has already been written by me. The archive material is copied and pasted and seems to be arriving safely. If any unintentional violation of any copyright could it just be deleted?

Good day, Teashop Hosts. I wonder if someone can help me with inserting a citation within a footnote. Specifically, if you would glance at the article on Duncan Napier, you will see four footnotes under the heading "Notes". The first of these reads as follows:
Most of the journals' text is reproduced in Melvin (2021) and Atkinson (2003)
where Melvin (2021) and Atkinson (2003) are references to books which are cited elsewhere in the article and which are listed in the "Further reading" section. What I am trying to do is to make those two references (within the note) into links, such that when you click on the link it would take you to the relevant book in "Further reading". In other words, I want it to look something like this:
Most of the journals' text is reproduced in Melvin (2021) and Atkinson (2003)
I've tried putting things like {{sfn|Melvin|2021}} directly in the text, and also experimented with the {{efn}} template, but none of that produces the desired effect.
I hope all this makes sense. And thanks in advance for your help. Mike Marchmont ( talk) 17:14, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Unless somebody is going around making every space in a sentence a non-breaking space, I see no benefit to ever removing non-breaking spaces. So what if you don't see the need for it, someone else obviously finds it useful and it is hurting you in no way.

Forgive me if this is a silly question; I checked the MoS and didn't see anything. I'm currently revising Strool, South Dakota, and the settlement was named for Ben Strool, who was fairly involved in the settlement's operations until his death. Conventionally, we refer to subjects by their surname only, but in this case that could cause confusion between the settlement and the person (e.g. "Residents paid a monthly rent to Strool"). At the same time, only referring to the settlement as "Strool" and the person as "Ben Strool" feels unwieldy. He didn't hold any kind of title (e.g. doctor or senator) that would make it easy to distinguish the person from the town, either. Is there a consensus on how to refer to people whose surname is the same as the settlement? – Galactic-Radiance ( talk) 21:45, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, While I registered an account several years ago, I have not used it in a while. Upon my return, I've been looking through the pages at WP:CSB flagged as needing attention and noticed some possible problems on Neocolonialism. First, it's a philosophical and political idea but seems to be taken for granted as true/valid within the article's context (i.e., no alternative interpretations are offered), which could be a NPOV violation even though most of the views offered are sourced. (The section "Catholic Church" is not sourced, though it quotes two living people.) Concerns have also been raised on the article talk page about WP:COATRACKing of criticism of American foreign policy that have gone unanswered in almost 6 months. I'm just not sure what to do here, because any attempt to be bold and "fix" it could very well come across as POV pushing on my own part, especially without sufficient experience to make those sorts of judgment calls.

The Atomic clock article has a section I am wondering about: "The NIST-F2 caesium fountain clock operated by NIST was officially launched in April 2014, to serve as a new U.S. civilian frequency and time standard, along with the NIST-F1 standard. The planned uB performance level of NIST-F2 is . "At this planned performance level the NIST-F2 clock will not lose a second in at least 300 million years." NIST-F2 was designed using lessons learned from NIST-F1. The NIST-F2 key advance compared to the NIST-F1 is that the vertical flight" I am wondering if the standallone quote starting with "At this planned..." should be in another sentence.

This question relates to the article "List of abnormal behaviors in animals" link: [ [22]]
In this article, we are given a list of abnormal behaviors in animals, and on this list, we see the behavior "Broodiness". The article states that broodiness is "(...) considered abnormal in modern commercial egg-laying hens". The reference to this is the article "The Effect of Certain Groups of Environmental Factors upon the Expression of Broodiness" by William H. Burrows and Theodore C. Byerly (note that the article is from 1937!). I am not able to find any evidence in this scientific article that states that broodiness in modern commercial egg-laying hens (or in any other hens or chickens) is considered abnormal behavior. Is there any reliable reference that actually does investigate broodiness as an abnormal behavior?

Hi, this relates to Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Lists_of_space_travelers. This AfD was opened by Tamingimpala at 8.15 this morning, as a recommended redirect. For the sake of honesty, I have a personal bias in that I think the redirect is daft, and have said so, but the consensus today has been against me, and the last person to post something was apparently the article's creator, who's voted redirect. Based on this, Tame/Tamingimpala has closed their own AfD at 20:34 on the day it was opened, with the result "Redirect".
I'm not going to argue the toss about the result, but I think the way this has happened is outrageous. AfD's are supposed to run for 7 days, not 12 hours, and closure as a result that's effectively "Delete" by the proposer just seems wrong to me.
I have asked, very strongly, that the closer re-open (on their talk page), but since the list has already been deleted, I'm not sure if this is too late? Or whether anything else should be done to ensure the material isn't gone for ever before it's properly debated. My worry is that others who've worked on lists of astronauts or have an opinion may not have logged on in the last 12 hours, in which case they'll find the entire thing has gone from initial proposal to final deletion between the time they had their evening meal, and finishing breakfast the following morning. I don't want to bludgeon a view that others don't have, and I'm not normally a stickler for procedural things, but this is just not right. Elemimele ( talk) 21:38, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

This is in reference to Draft:MicroPublication Biology. This is the article I created and had submitted for review. It is now rejected with the following comments-
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
My article is about an academic journal. I would like to point to several other existing Wikipedia articles about academic journals with similar references-
1) Journals established in 2016 like the one in my article- International Journal of Persian Literature, Open Agriculture, JAMA Cardiology
2) More recently added articles about academic journals- Journal of Controversial Ideas, Matter (journal), The CRISPR Journal, Annual Review of Criminology, Futures & Foresight Science etc.

I am wondering about what to do about this Yuendemu artist's incorrectly spelled name on wiki. The name on wiki is currently Norah Napaljari Nelson. The Darwin Supreme Court, where one of her paintings has been translated into a mosaic floor, lists her name as Nora Napaltjari Nelson, which would seem like an authoritative source, but I have made errors in editing before and I am anxious to not make more. I also know that she passed away sometime in the last 3-6 years, because I know people who knew her, but I can find no online reference or record. I only have a printed brochure from the recent 30th anniversary of the opening of the Supreme Court that implies her passing, and I have not found that online anywhere. Advice most welcome.

I came across this page the other day and found out that the page has included only parties that are present in the LegCo (which all are pro-Beijing) and excluded parties that are only in the District Council (which are the minor pro-Beijing parties and the various pro-democracy parties). This contradicts the subheading (Parties and groups in the Legislative and District Councils) which implies both should be included. Checking the history it seems that it was removed in [23], then restored later in [24], but then removed again in [25] disguised as a table formatting cleanup. It seems that all these people were only focussed on modifying the table, yet did not even bothered to change the date in the paragraph before, which is nearly 5 years ago.
As I'm still new to editing on Wikipedia, I'm not sure if there is a violation of certain policy. (There's too many policy pages and I'm not bothered to read through all of those) Can someone more experienced look into the matter?

Hi - sorry if this information is already somewhere. I'm really overwhelmed by how much information there is about editing Wikipedia pages and could use some guidance.
There's a film that I spent all last semester researching for a big essay project (I'm a university student) and the film's Wikipedia page is still just a stub so I feel like I'm a good candidate to expand it. However, I'm really unclear on what counts as a reliable source for a film. Pretty much all the information I have on the film comes from film reviews and interviews with the director - I just haven't found anything else written about it (it came out in 2020).
Here is what my instinct is:
1. If an opinion on/attitude towards the film is expressed across several reviews, I could potentially use those articles as sources for stating that the film is perceived a certain way. But information expressed as fact in reviews can't be used unless I can verify it with another source I know to be trustworthy. This is a problem since pretty much all the available information about the film that isn't coming directly from the film's director is contained in reviews. And if they are usable, I have a bunch of other questions about that!
2. The director makes a lot of claims but I should verify them elsewhere before using them. I don't know that it's even possible to verify a lot of what he says, but he makes certain assertions about the film that I would definitely want to include if I could confirm them (for example, that the film is the first of its kind in a certain category). If he is making a claim about himself, for instance about his inspiration for the film, could I use that on its own or is anything like that too opinion-y to go on a Wikipedia page? Is anything the director says usable on its own or does it all need to be verified unless I'm presenting it solely as his opinion?
Are my thoughts correct or am I way off base? Where do you get reliable information about a film that was made too recently to have any film journal articles written about it?
I didn't initially say what the film is because it felt a little embarrassing, but it's Ainu Mosir. I speak Japanese so I could look for Japanese-language sources, but it would be a bit of a pain.
Thanks so much for any help! MenoEnds ( talk) 03:20, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

It is impossible to confirm what they (and their publicists) have written on Wikipedia. And without complete filmographies and/or discographies, biographies are incomplete and/or incorrect.

Oh I see.... But when it comes to soundtracks and production credits, you need to see the physical list. Although I suppose that people could find the movie (if it's still available) and look for non-performing credits. But that kind of defeats the purpose of Wikipedia as a reference tool.-- LJA123 ( talk) 01:21, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
OK thanks. One more question: I've been over the YouTube thing already today (I can use obviously trustworthy sources). But can I use music tracks uploaded to YouTube from the albums which the YouTube users own? Not videos--just the songs. If a film, in itself, is a source, then surely a recorded song must also be a source? Regardless of how it came to be online? Thanks!-- LJA123 ( talk) 07:37, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
Oh we can use Apple and Spotify...I thought they'd be less accepted. I've been avoiding them because musician pages sometimes use them as encouragements to purchase. In the case of a lot of old music, or music that's more obscure, people load entire albums onto YouTube, and that's the only record of that music. So it's good to upload it, so people can find it and it's not lost. Also good to know that I can use official band videos. That's great, thanks very much.-- LJA123 ( talk) 16:25, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

I was reading the article Squid Game and it was said that the show was critically acclaimed. The source from this came from an article from Salon saying that the show received acclaim, and that source was used instead of the Metacritic one, which claims that it has "positive reviews." I did some research on it and there was a talk page discussion saying that reliable sources that say "this show is acclaimed" (if they exist) are used primarily before aggregator sites such as Metacritic.
Is this true? Is there any policy/guideline/essay that says that we use sources that describe a critical reception first before general consensus sites such as metacritic? I'm having a dispute over a similar thing at another article, and would like to back my stuff up with actual guidelines/policies. Thank you! shanghai. talk to me 07:09, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Keep Colorado Wild, alot just happened and it's probably incredibly frustrating. Wikipedia wants the article improved. We want the world to know more about notable academics who have been cited thousands of times in their field and why they have been cited so many times. The best thing you can do for the subject is help find reliable sources that discuss his contributions and life story. WP:ABOUTSELF covers what can be included about the subject in their own published words. Additionally, presumably in those thousands of times their work has been cited, notable theories or contributions by the subject have been discussed. There are projects that can help guide, just requires research and a willingness to edit within the rules of wikipedia. Slywriter ( talk) 04:32, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Regarding: Draft:Peter M. Walzer
I submitted this to the AFC help desk and haven't seen any responses so far. Please pardon my ignorance. While I have edited small things before, this is my first solo flight.
This article entry was declined for sounding like an advertisement. There was no particular reference to content areas in the article that are at fault, just a generalization. This was paired with a comment that it was also declined for not having sufficient independent references. While there is a section of bibliographic works, none of these are used in citations. There are 70 citations with the exception of 3 or 4, from sources the subject does not control. Of these 3 or 4 citations, they were used to confirm an interview topic with a mass market media source the subject does not control. Having seen numerous attorney articles with less citations or relevance, I understand it is no fair to compare, it would be good to understand how to get this article in a better position.
To that end my questions remain:
1) What areas of the entry are violating a neutral statement of facts? 2) There are 70 citations from international media organizations down to local media sources, from broadcast news to industry trades. Are these not enough? If so, what type of citations will be needed?
I appreciate any assistance you can provide. Garvin Carter ( talk) 22:19, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
Walzer’s dedication to the profession of family law is apparent in his long-term commitment to leadership within industry organizations and in prolific legal scholarship and teaching.

Peter Walzer is a highly distinguished professional having received peer recognition from the family law organizations he has served, which also shouldn't be in Wikipedia's voice. It says nothing about which organisations he's received peer recognition from.

Can someone please tell explain why there were so many attacks and AFD's on several national-level "old-school" drum and bugle corps in October 2021? Several admins made an agreement in October to do AFD on many drum and bugle corps articles - both championship level corps and non-championship level corps. One editor deleted an article with many years of scores (showing finalist placements for years 1959-1973) with only an explanation that it was "cruft" information. (Not mentioning any user names here, but proof can be obtained that this agreement was made in October, on their user talk pages, and several admins went to work do the RFD pages for numerous drum and bugle corps.)

Hi, In the abovementioned article it is mentioned that "On 13 November 1840 Belle Alliance arrived at Saint Helena. Two days later her passengers and crew joined the procession that carried Napoleon's body from his grave to the wharf where it was to be conveyed to France to be reburied. The crew of Belle Alliance wore ribbons around their hats with in letters of gold La Belle Alliance". I have done extensive work on this ship's information and believe this entry is incorrect. Napoleon fought a battle at La Belle Alliance, but the ship that took his body back to France was the "LA BELLE POULE" and not La Belle Alliance.
Can someone either prove me wrong or help to correct the Wikipedia entry please?

To Whom It May Concern,
I am very confused about notability guidelines, and have several questions about them. I know my article needs major revisions in several areas; I am not asking about the current content of the article, but rather how I might demonstrate notability of my subject.
1. Are the guidelines for notability different for academics than for individuals in the general biography category? The Wikipedia page addressing notability for academics states "This guideline [academic notability] is independent from the other subject-specific notability guidelines, such as WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:AUTH, etc., and is explicitly listed as an alternative to the general notability guideline.[1]" ( /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)#Citation_metrics). It seems this statement asserts that there is a different set of guidelines that may be applied to academics to determine their notability. Is this correct?
2. I am not sure how to navigate criterion #1. It states that "The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work..." My subject's works are cited by others, but how do I know if they are cited frequently enough? According to Google Scholar, one book is cited 78x, another 45x, another 33x, yet another 22x, and still another 11x. Is this considered frequent in the niche realm of evangelical/confessional preaching? How might I determine this?
3. This brings up another question: The specific guidelines for criterion #1 note "(f) For the purposes of satisfying Criterion 1, the academic discipline of the person in question needs to be sufficiently broadly construed." Is evangelical homiletics/preaching too narrow to adequately judge using these guidelines?
I think the subject of my article qualifies as notable under at lease one or two of the criteria. The page notes "Academics meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable."
4. According to the guidelines, criterion #5 is met if "The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon." Under the specific criteria for this category are three elements: "(a) For documenting that a person has held such an appointment (but not for a judgement of whether or not the institution is a major one), publications of the appointing institution are considered a reliable source. (b) Criterion 5 can be applied reliably only for persons who are tenured at the full professor level, and not for junior faculty members with endowed appointments. (c) Major institutions, for these purposes, are those that have a reputation for excellence or selectivity. Named chairs at other institutions are not necessarily sufficient to establish notability."
My professor holds a named (endowed chair), and is a fully tenured, senior faculty member. He is also the director of a graduate program at Baylor University. Baylor University recently was named an R1 institution in recognition for its research activity. Do these facts satisfy the requirements of criterion #5 for the notability of academics?
5. The specific criterion c states that "(c) The publication of an anniversary or memorial journal volume or a Festschrift dedicated to a particular person is usually enough to satisfy Criterion 1, except in the case of publication in vanity, fringe, or non-selective journals or presses."
My professor has a Festschrift written in his honor by a non-vanity press (Wipf and Stock). Does satisfying this criterion meet the notability requirements for an academic?
My professor wants me to continue to try and get the article about him approved; the more specific responses are, the better I will be able to communicate to him why the article may or may not be approved.
I appreciate any guidance you can give in this matter. Dgregory4 ( talk) 23:28, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

and more recently,
These are only some examples of these edits. These are pretty clearly coming from one person, and I have twice filed sockpuppet investigations which successfully resulted in blocks, but as this is now the third occurrence of socking to continue, I'm wondering what I can do to help make it more likely this does not persist. I have been trying to familiarize myself with the ins and outs of this community's processes for dealing with problematic edits, but I am unsure what to do here as this seems to fit into multiple categories. Just reporting the newest account as a sockpuppet again seems like it would be limited in its effectiveness considering the user demonstrates the ability to continue editing after blocks have been put in place. What is the appropriate next step for an editor like myself in this situation? Bring it up at the AIV noticeboard? Request protection for the pages? Edit warring noticeboard?

Hello,
WikipediaNeko. A stub is defined as an article deemed too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject.
Also, an article that, although providing some useful information, lacks the breadth of coverage expected from an encyclopedia, and that is capable of expansion.
So, the first definition is more restrictive but both are useful. In my opinion, a stub is often equivalent to a database inquiry, contains a few data points about the topic, but lacks written original prose summarizing
significant coverage in
independent reliable sources discussing the topic. I see a lot of articles tagged as stubs that actually provide a pretty decent beginning overview of the topic. I routinely upgrade those articles to "Start".

Hello! So I've run into some kind of an issue. On Nintendo Switch Sports (which I don't think is notable enough for an article yet but that's besides the point right now) a user is saying that while the sources that are independent and secondary and not directly connected to the subject say the game is a direct sequel to Wii Sports, Nintendo themselves say it's the 3rd main entry in the Wii Sports series of titles, making it a direct sequel to Wii Sports Resort. I'm fairly sure we're supposed to go by what the secondary, independent, reliable sources say and not what Nintendo officially says, however I'd rather know for sure instead of reverting on an assumption I have that could be incorrect. ― Blaze Wolf TalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:44, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, on the page 2000s there is a Decadebox template. In this template, it says that the year 2000 was part of the 21st century. However, because the Gregorian Calender isn't 0-indexed (that is, there is 1 BC and 1 AD but no year 0 in the Gregorian Calendar), the first century is from year 1 to year 100, second century from 101 to 200, et cetera, 21st century from 2001 to 2100.

Hi Teahouse/Wikipedia.
I've been trying to get a Draft AfC approved for a long while now. A few months ago, there was a lot of back-and-forth editing and commenting - now, in recent weeks, it's mostly been empty. Is someone able to help me get this little project alive or point me in the right direction? Draft:Make a Difference Foundation D.C. at MAD Foundation Inc. ( talk) 06:09, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

About the invention and historical development efforts of Pinned Buried Photodiode by Yoshiaki Hagiwara The first pinned photodiode (PPD) and the Buried Photodiode (BP) both have a shallow P+ implant in N type diffusion layer over a P-type substrate layer. PPD is always BP. PPD does not have the image lag. But BP may have the serious image lag problem. PPD is also not to be confused with the PIN photodiode.[21]. The first PPD with the no-image lag, the low-surface dark current and the high short-wave blue light sensitivity features was invented in 1975 by Hagiwara at Sony.[1] The evidence is given by Japanese patent application JPA1975-127646 [2], JPA1975-127647 [3] and JPA1985-134985 [4] on the double and triple junction type PPD with the vertical overflow drain (VOD) structures with anti-blooming function capability and Global Shutter function with VOD Punch-thru mode clocking-scheme, achieved the electric shutter function by Hagiwara team at Sony [5]. Sony developed the first double junction type PPD and use it in FT CCD in 1978 [6]. This was the first invention of the pinned photodiode (PPD), a photodetector structure with low lag, low noise, high quantum efficiency and low dark current. Early charge-coupled device image sensors with the single N+P photodiode with the N+ floating surface suffered from shutter lag. The serious image lag was largely resolved in 1978 [6][7][8]developed by Hagiwara and his coworkers in 1987 [9] at Sony by 1987. The PPD was used in CCD sensors in the past analog TV era and is now still used in the present digital TV era in CMOS active-pixel sensors. In 1980, BP was used in ILT CCD by Nobukazu Teranishi, Hiromitsu Shiraki and Yasuo Ishihara at NEC [22][23] They reported in public that lag can be eliminated if the signal carriers could be transferred from the photodiode to the CCD. [24] The BP with the serious image lag problem was further developed and used in ILT CCD by Teranishi and Ishihara with A. Kohono, E. Oda and K. Arai in 1982, with the addition of an anti-blooming structure.[22][24] The BP proposed in 1980 and developed in 1982 by NEC [22][23] reported the serious image lag problem, which was by definition not PPD. BP is not always PPD. [21]. The photodetector structure invented in 1975 by Hagiwara at Sony was given the name "pinned photodiode" (PPD) by B.C. Burkey at Kodak in 1984. In 1987, the PPD mainly developed by Sony [9] began to be incorporated into most CCD sensors, becoming a fixture in consumer electronic video cameras and then digital still cameras.[22] In 1994, Eric Fossum, while working at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), proposed an improvement to the CMOS sensor: the integration of the pinned photodiode. A CMOS sensor with PPD technology was first fabricated in 1995 by a joint JPL and Kodak team that included Fossum along with P.P.K. Lee, R.C. Gee, R.M. Guidash and T.H. Lee. Since then, the PPD has been used in nearly all CMOS sensors. The CMOS sensor with PPD technology was further advanced and refined by R.M. Guidash in 1997, K. Yonemoto and H. Sumi in 2000, and I. Inoue in 2003. This led to CMOS sensors achieve imaging performance on par with CCD sensors, and later exceeding CCD sensors.[22] Reference to be added by proper numbering: [1] Yoshiaki Hagiwara, “Invention and Historical Development Efforts of Pinned Buried Photodiode”, Proc. of the International Conference on Electrical, Computer and Energy Technologies (ICECET) 9-10 December 2021, Cape Town-South Africa Should be linked to the following site for details. https://202011282002569657330.onamaeweb.jp/AIPS_Library/P2021_ICECET2021Paper75_PWD_897_992_647_542_870_423_776_till_Dec_10_2021/ICECET2021_Paper75.pdf [2] Yoshiaki Hagiwara, Japanese Patent Application JPA 1975-127646 on N+NP+NP-P+ Triple Junction Type Pinned Photodiode with Back Light Illumination with the CCD/MOS Buffer Memory for Global Shutter Function.

Thank you for writing to me. Since being invited by Professor Dave ( Burgenhaug ??) have posted and published a great deal of material. The last publishing I think was the 9th one and was advised to keep posting. Advice that was given earlier that the material can be polished up where necessary over time. Have explained that at 94 years of age the plethora of detail required in Wikiuni is now outside my capacity to digest. The Wikiuni open University seemed to me the best opportunity to disseminate the material that has already been written by me. The archive material is copied and pasted and seems to be arriving safely. If any unintentional violation of any copyright could it just be deleted? Time is not on my side and the question that remains is 'Do I keep posting?'

I have now created 3 or 4 English Wikipedia articles which I started by translating from existing foreign-language Wikipedia articles. Frequently the foreign-language articles (French, Italian, Dutch, Danish) have had few, or poor, supporting citations, and so I have then had to do further research to find full supporting references. Question: are other-language Wikipedias supposed to use the same standards and the same quality and quantity of sources as English Wikipedia? If so, why have I found so many articles which would not be accepted in English Wikipedia? Masato.harada ( talk) 17:09, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
Good day, Teashop Hosts. I wonder if someone can help me with inserting a citation within a footnote. Specifically, if you would glance at the article on Duncan Napier, you will see four footnotes under the heading "Notes". The first of these reads as follows:
Most of the journals' text is reproduced in Melvin (2021) and Atkinson (2003)
where Melvin (2021) and Atkinson (2003) are references to books which are cited elsewhere in the article and which are listed in the "Further reading" section. What I am trying to do is to make those two references (within the note) into links, such that when you click on the link it would take you to the relevant book in "Further reading". In other words, I want it to look something like this:
Most of the journals' text is reproduced in Melvin (2021) and Atkinson (2003)
I've tried putting things like {{sfn|Melvin|2021}} directly in the text, and also experimented with the {{efn}} template, but none of that produces the desired effect.
I hope all this makes sense. And thanks in advance for your help. Mike Marchmont ( talk) 17:14, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello, I noticed that the alumni section of The Principia page did not cite any sources. In starting to do this process I also noticed that there was a lot of overlap with its partner page Principia College. 1. If it were up to me, I'd probably just have an alumni list on the Principia College page only. Is that a possibility or is that overstepping what others have done? 2. If I can't find references for the alumni section on The Principia page, is it possible to remove them until there are references? Thanks! Archivingperson ( talk) 12:31, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Unless somebody is going around making every space in a sentence a non-breaking space, I see no benefit to ever removing non-breaking spaces. So what if you don't see the need for it, someone else obviously finds it useful and it is hurting you in no way.

Forgive me if this is a silly question; I checked the MoS and didn't see anything. I'm currently revising Strool, South Dakota, and the settlement was named for Ben Strool, who was fairly involved in the settlement's operations until his death. Conventionally, we refer to subjects by their surname only, but in this case that could cause confusion between the settlement and the person (e.g. "Residents paid a monthly rent to Strool"). At the same time, only referring to the settlement as "Strool" and the person as "Ben Strool" feels unwieldy. He didn't hold any kind of title (e.g. doctor or senator) that would make it easy to distinguish the person from the town, either. Is there a consensus on how to refer to people whose surname is the same as the settlement? – Galactic-Radiance ( talk) 21:45, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, While I registered an account several years ago, I have not used it in a while. Upon my return, I've been looking through the pages at WP:CSB flagged as needing attention and noticed some possible problems on Neocolonialism. First, it's a philosophical and political idea but seems to be taken for granted as true/valid within the article's context (i.e., no alternative interpretations are offered), which could be a NPOV violation even though most of the views offered are sourced. (The section "Catholic Church" is not sourced, though it quotes two living people.) Concerns have also been raised on the article talk page about WP:COATRACKing of criticism of American foreign policy that have gone unanswered in almost 6 months. I'm just not sure what to do here, because any attempt to be bold and "fix" it could very well come across as POV pushing on my own part, especially without sufficient experience to make those sorts of judgment calls.

The Atomic clock article has a section I am wondering about: "The NIST-F2 caesium fountain clock operated by NIST was officially launched in April 2014, to serve as a new U.S. civilian frequency and time standard, along with the NIST-F1 standard. The planned uB performance level of NIST-F2 is . "At this planned performance level the NIST-F2 clock will not lose a second in at least 300 million years." NIST-F2 was designed using lessons learned from NIST-F1. The NIST-F2 key advance compared to the NIST-F1 is that the vertical flight" I am wondering if the standallone quote starting with "At this planned..." should be in another sentence. I looked for information on Wikipedia:Manual of Style on quotes, but there is a lot of guidelines around quotes so I wasn't able to find it. Is this okay or could it be improved and changed for the better? ScientistBuilder ( talk) 01:16, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

This question relates to the article "List of abnormal behaviors in animals" link: [ [22]]
In this article, we are given a list of abnormal behaviors in animals, and on this list, we see the behavior "Broodiness". The article states that broodiness is "(...) considered abnormal in modern commercial egg-laying hens". The reference to this is the article "The Effect of Certain Groups of Environmental Factors upon the Expression of Broodiness" by William H. Burrows and Theodore C. Byerly (note that the article is from 1937!). I am not able to find any evidence in this scientific article that states that broodiness in modern commercial egg-laying hens (or in any other hens or chickens) is considered abnormal behavior. Is there any reliable reference that actually does investigate broodiness as an abnormal behavior? How can Wikipedia claim that broodiness is an abnormal behavior when there is no scientific evidence on this? 130.225.188.130 ( talk) 16:20, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, this relates to Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Lists_of_space_travelers. This AfD was opened by Tamingimpala at 8.15 this morning, as a recommended redirect. For the sake of honesty, I have a personal bias in that I think the redirect is daft, and have said so, but the consensus today has been against me, and the last person to post something was apparently the article's creator, who's voted redirect. Based on this, Tame/Tamingimpala has closed their own AfD at 20:34 on the day it was opened, with the result "Redirect".
I'm not going to argue the toss about the result, but I think the way this has happened is outrageous. AfD's are supposed to run for 7 days, not 12 hours, and closure as a result that's effectively "Delete" by the proposer just seems wrong to me.
I have asked, very strongly, that the closer re-open (on their talk page), but since the list has already been deleted, I'm not sure if this is too late? Or whether anything else should be done to ensure the material isn't gone for ever before it's properly debated. My worry is that others who've worked on lists of astronauts or have an opinion may not have logged on in the last 12 hours, in which case they'll find the entire thing has gone from initial proposal to final deletion between the time they had their evening meal, and finishing breakfast the following morning. I don't want to bludgeon a view that others don't have, and I'm not normally a stickler for procedural things, but this is just not right. Elemimele ( talk) 21:38, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

( edit conflict) Sjanapgs, Hello and welcome to the Teahouse, please could you tell us what article that is? Secondly it appears you are barely 4 days old, that is a little too soon to decide to create articles. Penultimately you seem to be in a hurry what seems to be the problem? Is it something we can help you out with? If not, then please note that we have no deadline here, except for un-submitted Draft articles which haven’t been edited in 6 months. To the crux of your question, what I want you to understand is drafts that are submitted are thrown into a pool as opposed to a queue so basically Patience is the most imperative factor at the moment, whilst there are ways to hasten the process, it is my opinion that those are more theoretical than practical. You have fulfilled your obligations by submitting, it is then behoove of editors with the AFC pseudo perm to fulfill theirs but please have patience.

This is in reference to Draft:MicroPublication Biology. This is the article I created and had submitted for review. It is now rejected with the following comments-
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
My article is about an academic journal. I would like to point to several other existing Wikipedia articles about academic journals with similar references-
1) Journals established in 2016 like the one in my article- International Journal of Persian Literature, Open Agriculture, JAMA Cardiology

I also know that she passed away sometime in the last 3-6 years, because I know people who knew her, but I can find no online reference or record.

I came across this page the other day and found out that the page has included only parties that are present in the LegCo (which all are pro-Beijing) and excluded parties that are only in the District Council (which are the minor pro-Beijing parties and the various pro-democracy parties). This contradicts the subheading (Parties and groups in the Legislative and District Councils) which implies both should be included. Checking the history it seems that it was removed in [23], then restored later in [24], but then removed again in [25] disguised as a table formatting cleanup. It seems that all these people were only focussed on modifying the table, yet did not even bothered to change the date in the paragraph before, which is nearly 5 years ago.
As I'm still new to editing on Wikipedia, I'm not sure if there is a violation of certain policy. (There's too many policy pages and I'm not bothered to read through all of those) Can someone more experienced look into the matter?
