- Hi IndiaUpdates. The aim of Wikipedia is not to have articles about emerging things, but about things that have attracted significant attention from the world at large and over a period of time. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 06:27, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I would just like advice on how this article should be improved. Also, do you think it's reasonable for
Michael Jackson to have a "Cultural impact of Michael Jackson" article considering how popular he was and how much impact he had worldwide on music, music videos and dance?

- @ 8eatle: - unfortunately, as you can see at this top-level discussion, there have been various discussions on whether this exact topic was a legitimate page to have. After an initial no-consensus judgement, the RfC (our top-level discussion) opted for a weak consensus against having such a page. While this may change in the future, this discussion was held less than 3 months ago, so I don't think you'd succeed with it (even though my personal beliefs would be such a page would be beneficial).

Okay. Wouldn't you think it would be fair, considering Madonna has one eventhough statistically Michael Jackson is the biggest pop icon. 8eatle ( talk) 11:31, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
- @ 8eatle: - "Fairness" isn't applicable here - it's whether the participants felt it benefited the encyclopedia. However whether it was a similar case to Madonna was actually considered, and most people felt that while there obviously was significant cultural impact, it could be included in his article. It's currently part of this section. If you have additional content it can be added there - it may eventually grow enough that a separate article is split off. It's a featured article under Extended protection, so suggested changes should be put on its talk page. Nosebagbear ( talk) 19:43, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
I don't understand why my draft was refused to be published... Can someone give me more insight into why my article was not published?

why was this article turned down.
2 national awards were included verifing the info.
- Hi LuckyhollywoodMahler. The sources cited are nominations; they don't prove he won. Anybody can nominate anyone, so the nominations don't help establish notability. I doubt if they would even be considered reliable sources for facts, only for the opinions of the nominators. You can probably find a reliable source, such as an issue of the magazine, to show that he won. But that won't advance the draft much. Neither the awards nor the awarding body (Wrestling USA Magazine) are well-known. Well-known would be something like a Nobel Prize, a Pulitzer Prize, or a Tony Award. Nor is it clear that the awards are significant. Does anyone report on them other than the magazine that gives them (and is also Mahler's employer)? Novice editors are commonly advised to cite at least three independent, reliable, secondary sources containing significant coverage of the topic. The draft has zero, and little chance of adding any. Finally, your choice of username suggests this may be an autobiography. They are strongly discouraged. Wikipedia is not a place to write about yourself. Doing so never ends well. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 02:31, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

I want to cite a specific page (p. 41) in a downloadable (Japanese-language) PDF from a Japanese corporation (Moriya Corp.). The PDF is their notice to shareholders at their 57Th annual meeting in Heisei 23 (2011). The notice (PDF) on page 41 lists the biography of their external auditor - Tasuku Tsukada - the person whom this wikipedia article is about.
The press release can be found on this page: http://www.moriya-s.co.jp/publics/index/98/ It is the third from the bottom, dated 9 June 2011 (2011-06-09):「第57期定時株主総会召集ご通知」 ( 2011-06-09 ・ 522KB ). As noted above, the specific page I wish to cite is p.41.
How do I do that? In the article, I have cited it as:
|title=2011(平成23)年度プレスリリース [第57期定時株主総会召集ご通知 ( 2011-06-09) PDF] |url= http://www.moriya-s.co.jp/publics/index/98/ |website=Moriya 株式会社 守谷商会 |accessdate=8 June 2019
but that is missing the page number and perhaps more. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to upload a photo of Charles Coleman to go with this page. I seem to be having trouble.
This is an email I received from IEEE (the owner) regarding permission to use:
