Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Gabriel Fragnière. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:10, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Introduction
[edit]Hiya, I see you added an "Introduction" heading to Dominique Strauss-Kahn sexual assault case; this is not the usual practice on Wikipedia articles. The lead area (above the table of contents) is what we use as the summary and introduction. You can read more about this idea at MOS:LEAD --Errant (chat!) 14:06, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
Yes, but this lead is unusually long, which also is not in line with the usual practice. A summary should be just a couple of lines. If not separated as an 'introduction', than the rest should be information to be included in the chapters that follow. Andries Van den Abeele (talk) 14:14, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
- Hiya, no the lead summary can be of any reasonable length - but the accepted format is four paragraphs - it summarises what is contained in the rest of the article. Sometimes leads contain new information not elsewhere in the article; this isn't accepted practice but usually it gets worked into the article eventually. As I mentioned; MOS:LEAD has a lot more detail on this. --Errant (chat!) 14:28, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
The article Patricia Carson has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

We noticed though that when you edited Louis de Cartier de Marchienne, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sachsenhausen (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hello, Andries Van den Abeele. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Marcel van den Broecke, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Marcel van den Broecke to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

ennoblement of de Schaepdrijver
[edit]As I posted on the article's talk page: As published in the Moniteur Belge of 19 July 2016:
Adellijke gunsten Op voordracht van de Vice-Eerste Minister en Minister van Buitenlandse Zaken heeft de Koning bij koninklijke besluiten van 10 juli 2016 de volgende adellijke gunsten verleend: - vergunning van de persoonlijke titel van barones aan Mevr. Sophie DE SCHAEPDRIJVER en Mevr. Isabelle SALMON; - vergunning van de persoonlijke titel van baron aan de heren Eddy BRUYNINCKX, Jacques DELEN, Dominique LAMBERT, Joseph MARTIAL, Pierre RION en Johannes (Hans) VANHOUTTE.
The fact one has to "buy" a certificate and heraldic arms, are a mere formality but the ennoblement itself dates from the date of the royal decree if the procedure is followed through. The right is only forfeited if those obligations haven't been fulfilled within 5 years of the Royal Decree. For simplicity's sake it is better - and is also up to now general practice - to make abstraction of this, and to only note if and when the rare case arises that those conditions are not met (like with Marie-France Botte )-- fdewaele 20 July 2016, 13:17.
- Sorry, but you are wrong. The ennoblement will date not from 10th of july 2016, but from the date when obligations are fulfilled and accepted. When they are, the ennoblement is confirmed, and the date is the one of this confirmation. You can see this as fact by all the ennoblements of the last years. Therefore my change is correct and yours is not. Marie-France Botte is not the only example. best regards, Andries Van den Abeele (talk) 14:28, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello,
I am very appreciative of the extensive additions you have made to the above article. Could you please return to it and add citations? so that someone doesn't delete the additions as unsourced material.
Thank you.Georgejdorner (talk) 06:32, 11 December 2017 (UTC) To Georgejdorner,
- I am somewhat puzzled by your request. I am not a believer in footnotes and citations on encyclopedias, because they are often obsolete after a shorter or longer time. Several have nonetheless been added by you or others to this article. I do not object against them. On the other hand I am always providing the adequate literature, like it has always been the case on encyclopedias on paper. All the informations added by me in the article (5 years ago!) are based on this literature. If somebody would take pleasure in deleting this information, I wish him well and I pity the encyclopedia.

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion.

- Can you explain what this template indicates as a not resolved problem? I do not see any. Andries Van den Abeele (talk) 21:59, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
- From the template - "This biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification. Please help by adding reliable sources...". There are only two relatively weak citations in the Biography section for example. Hope this explains the concern. Dl2000 (talk) 22:44, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
- I continue to object. There are not only two citations (on what basis ar you judging them as 'relatively weak'?). There are also, mentioned under 'literature', four references to more general articles concerning René Jacobs. And then the multiple recordings mentioned, easily verifiable. In general I object strongly against the idea of some users that every information must receive a particular reference. Wikipedia is not a historical study, but an encyclopedia and must be considered and worked upon as such. The Encyclopedia Brittanica is the shining example! Even the demanding German Wikipedia is, since 2005 satisfied with the presented citations and references of this living person. Andries Van den Abeele (talk) 10:15, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Lambertus Vossius
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Lambertus Vossius, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a foreign language article that has essentially the same content as nl:Lambertus Vossius, an article on another Wikimedia Foundation project. Please see Wikipedia:Translation to learn about requests for, and coordination of, translations from foreign-language Wikipedias into English.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
