[edit]

I decided to lat my thoughts out here AVAVAYA. I have corrected anything that did not comply with Wikipedia's manual of style, but have some additional questions:

  • Dates on Wikipedia are usually standardised to either day month year (11 May 2023) or month day year (May 11, 2023). Could you standardise this in the article (including references)?
  • The line In addition to the already mentioned, Thomas Sinkjær actively takes part in several other boards and organizations. doesn't add much. Can it be cut?
  • Awards with no citation will have to go I'm afraid.
  • References to other Wikipedia articles are not allowed. Please try to replace.
  • Does Knight of the Order of the Dannebrog grant any post-nomials? If so, they should be included.

That's all for now. Schminnte (talk contribs) 19:51, 11 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for your effort Schminnte - I appreciate it very much ♥️
I have followed up on your questions as best I could:
  • Dates standardized to May 16, 2023
  • I agree with the line "In addition to the already mentioned, Thomas Sinkjær actively takes part in several other boards and organizations" not contributing much. But instead of deleting it, I moved it, qualified it (giving examples), and added references.
  • Cut the references that had no citations.
  • Removed/replaced references that utilized links to Wikipedia articles.
  • Added the postnominal abbreviation for Knight of the Order of the Dannebrog (Orders, decorations, and medals of Denmark - I did not know of this) - I am unsure if it is added correctly (after the name in the lead section, without punctuation). I tried to make a mouse over "tool-tip" kind of thing in case readers wonder about this "R".
I have also tried to figure out how to
  • add Thomas Sinkjærs ORCID id (I am an ardent advocate of persistent identifiers, and as a bonus, it makes it easy for people to have all his publications listed if they want).
  • add categories.
Hope I did it correctly.
Such a learning experience - I love it :-)
I don't think the page tells people much about Thomas's contributions to making the world a better place (unless they explore his publications). I will have to add at a later stage - I start with this.
I am excited to hear what you think - if the page is ready for the main space?

I'll look over the article tonight and add/alter anything I think needs work. It looks good, so I will move it to mainspace after that. Schminnte (talk contribs) 09:19, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
