Betty Go-Belmonte
[edit]- ... that Filipino journalist Betty Go-Belmonte (pictured) co-founded the newspapers The Philippine Daily Inquirer, The Philippine Star, and Pilipino Star Ngayon?
Created/expanded by Lawrence ruiz (talk). Nominated by Shhhhwwww!! (talk) at 23:31, 22 August 2014 (UTC).
Article has a lot of issues. It has insufficient citations tag and neutrality tag. --Carlojoseph14 (talk) 09:37, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
This article is new enough and long enough and the image is appropriately licensed. The inline citations seem to cover all the hook facts and I detected no copyright issues. The article seems reasonably neutral to me so it is a pity about the COI tag. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:09, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
Cwmhiraeth, there's something odd about the photo license—the photo is dated August 15, 2014, but Go-Belmonte died in 1994. The photo couldn't have been taken in 2014, so something needs fixing. Also, the obvious question: should we be running an article on the main page while it has a COI tag? BlueMoonset (talk) 14:53, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
- I guess the image was uploaded to Commons on that date. I don't know much about image licensing but it might be safest not to use it. Nor do I know what to do about the COI tag, that's a policy decision on which I am sure others will have views. My tick just indicates that the article meets DYK criteria.

- The COI tag is just a reminder to check for neutrality. This is reasonably neutral, but it could be made even more so. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:06, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

- Crisco 1492, the image was been nominated for deletion on Commons shortly after my query due to the date issue. The uploader has asked what he needs to do/supply to keep the photo there, and given some (but nowhere near enough) information on its origin. As the deletion nominator—the same one pointed out the COI issue—has not replied, perhaps you can help? Obviously we can't approve the nomination here while the photo is still under a cloud, so this remains in limbo until then. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:13, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
- The image is only salvageable as through fair-use, which would make it not eligible for DYK. The article itself could use a bit of massaging, but is otherwise pretty good. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:25, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
