(I'm not sure if I should be posting this feedback here, or editing the page discussing the notability and references of the post. So I'm erring on the side of doing both.

Untitled

Based on the original concern over reliable sources, I've replaced/added to the references with a number of better sources: CTV News; CBC News; Manitoba Music; The Winnipeg Sun; Global News; and Backbone. Hopefully these are more reliable sources and satisfy Wikipedia's criteria. I did have one issue when adding content: Meghan's participation at the G20 summit is documented here: http://www.examiner - dot - com/article/g20-young-entrepreneur-summit-30-canadians-will-be-there but the site is on Wikipedia's blacklist for some reason. I will try to find another source for it; there didn't seem to be anything spammy about the source, however.

There was a comment about me having an undisclosed relationship with the subject. I assume that most people who write entries have some relationship to the subject. I'm not trying to hide anything; my username is "acroll" and I'm listed as an advisor at Lumo Play. But that aside: Meg is a fairly notable entrepreneur in the Canadian technology scene, having worked on a variety of things from childhood poverty to the psychology of play to copyright law. I believe the references are legitimate news sources, all reasonably independent. If the criteria for an entry are notability and independent references I believe Meghan's work is sufficiently notable and independently verified. Do you need other information to make a decision on this subject? I'm not a frequent contributor to Wikipedia so I'm not familiar with many of the tools and policies.

I am, however, learning to sign things. ;-)

If this survives AFD

Please move the article name to one where surname is categorized properly. Postcard Cathy (talk) 10:13, 22 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
