Advertisement?

Tell me how this is an advertisement, whereas pages for stars, e.g. Leonardo DiCaprio, Deborah Kerr, Meryl Streep, Robert De Niro etc. go on and on with acclaim, etc. etc and are not accused as such.

Am I supposed to look up dirt and/or put forth unknown negative stuff, or is this comment simply because you have never heard of this subject? And that's why I put in the info as I did, so that you would understand the "notability" of the subject.

This is an important TV/film professional in Germany, who participated in groundbreaking television stories, in particular how gay people are portrayed in the Media. In the process he has also worked on two long-run series as a regular and undertaken to go to film school simultaneously (no mean task).

Do the photos bother you? They were meant to illustrate stuff for which I had no Internet links, as some are expired or no longer available, but nonetheless substantiate the facts and points made.

To arbitrarily delete something for questionable cause and/or prejudice is a disturbing consequence. While I understand, from other discussions, that so-called two wrongs don't make a right, i.e. there are many subjects apparently undiscovered not at all worthy that remain on Wikipedia. However, even if you believe this one is worthy but too "gushy," it would have to be explained why other articles are entitled to highlight their subjects achievements. So, who's the final judge? That's what makes this process maddening.

Please explain.Andymickey (talk) 12:53, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Be calm, nobody has suggested deletion of the article, so I have removed your "hangon" tag. The "advertisement" tag is an editor's opinion of the tone of the article: you can discuss it with him. I am more concerned with the copyright status of the various images you have uploaded: I am not an expert in that field, but I would think, for instance, that copyright in the magazine pages belongs to the publishers. See WP:Copyrights in general, and WP:Image use policy and WP:Image copyright tags. JohnCD (talk) 13:36, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, JohnCD, but when you see those "tags" and the tags are accompanied with various deletion options, I would hope you'd see why I might be concerned, after having spent many, many hours trying to get a credible article written. If this was just a "maintenance" query as Glenfarclas said in a response on my Talk page, then why accompany it with the foreboding warnings? However, to your concern the pictures should not at all worry you as they are promotional and/or of long-standing use and are on many websites as well or would pass the muster of "fair/use" since no one's making money off of them in any event.

I am a professional TV/Film writer and write for The Huffington Post. Many of us routinely use pictures to adorn our articles and have never had a complaint -- and the Post makes advertising dollars, which is not the case on Wikipedia.

I have written to Glenfarclas (who explained one concern -- that I'd headlined one segment as English Film Star or some such because Stenschke is not yet an English Film Star.) The purpose was to indicate that he was now in a different arena, making an English language motion picture, which is a milestone in his career. However, I softened the headline, and since he didn't mention anything else, what more can I do? As indicated, almost every article of theatrical types deal with the positives, because that's what makes them notable, unless they've been imprisoned or suffered a career downturn. That hasn't happened yet to Stenschke, so I reported the facts and referenced them as best as I could. Hope this ends the matter. Thanks for writing.Andymickey (talk) 13:58, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
