Lots of issues

[edit]

First off, this needs to be edited for neutrality. Secondly, it needs reliable sources because it's very low on them. Many of the prior sources are dead in the water and I have a funny feeling that like most of the ones that remained, they all came from Camilla's blog. She appears to be notable but she needs reliable sources badly. Odds are that they're in her native language, so we need someone who can speak the language to find them. tokyogirl79 Tokyogirl79 (talk) 09:51, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File:Fjallbacka yacht122100.jpg Nominated for speedy Deletion

[edit]
An image used in this article, File:Fjallbacka yacht122100.jpg, has been nominated for speedy deletion at Wikimedia Commons for the following reason: Copyright violations
What should I do?

Don't panic; deletions can take a little longer at Commons than they do on Wikipedia. This gives you an opportunity to contest the deletion (although please review Commons guidelines before doing so). The best way to contest this form of deletion is by posting on the image talk page.

  • If the image is non-free then you may need to upload it to Wikipedia (Commons does not allow fair use)
  • If the image isn't freely licensed and there is no fair use rationale then it cannot be uploaded or used.
  • If the image has already been deleted you may want to try Commons Undeletion Request

How can I link to articles in Swedish - In the section "Biography" there is a list of her novels in Swedish and in the Swedish version of Wikipedia there are articles, e.g. Ice Princess - how can I link there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daxmaryrussel (talkcontribs) 13:00, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Copy edit and cleanup

[edit]

I have copy-edited this page and cleaned up some of the citations. In the "Writing technique" section, it appears that someone simply copied and pasted sections of web pages containing reviews of the author's books. This is blatant copyright violation, and I have removed the instances that I could verify and also instances that looked like review text sourced to dead links. There is probably some copyvio remaining in this article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:25, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is challenging to verify the statements in this article because so many of them have been in the WP article for so long that people have been copying them to their own web pages for many years. As it says at WP:DCV, "text that can be found elsewhere on the Web that was in fact copied from Wikipedia in the first place is not a copyright violation – at least not on Wikipedia's part." Be careful out there. – Jonesey95 (talk) 06:13, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
In fact, Wikipedia contains many claims with sources that actually are nothing but copies of Wikipedia! That is, someone once wrote here "Obama likes carrots" (or some other not-obviously false or libelious claim), this spread across the interwebz, and presto: suddenly the internet is full of "reliable" sources of this claim that we can reference!
