Your submission at Articles for creation: Elly Barnes (educator) (November 24)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! The submission has not been accepted because it included copyrighted information, which is not permitted on Wikipedia. You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work.

The existing submission may be deleted at any time. Copyrighted work cannot be allowed to remain on Wikipedia.

In addition: Most of the article is copyvio. Furthermore, the tone is such that I think the rest is copyvio also from previously published sources. In addition, the article is promotional. Rewrite from scratch, not just modifying phrases a little, but using entirely different language and arrangement. using a neutral tone and eliminating jargon such as "continued to expand her remit." Don't use unsourced quotes. Don;t include any unsourced assertions such as "Her actions were radical in so far that Section 28, which banned teachers from ‘promoting’ and ‘publishing’ homosexual material was only repealed in 2003 and LGBT-Inclusion was not supported by school or government policies." Either this information was published by a third party and can be cited, or it is your original conclusion.

I warn you that repeated submission of copyright material is cause for blocking from Wikipedia. This is one of the most serious possible violations of our terms of service.

If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also get real-time chat help from experienced editors.

File permission problem with File:Elly Barnes Founder and CEO of Educate & Celebrate.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Elly Barnes Founder and CEO of Educate & Celebrate.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Elly Barnes (December 5)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DGG was:

There remain no substantial independent sources about her. The references are either her inclusion on a list or notices, or from her or her organization. The only possibility for notability would be the position on the Pink List. I do not see from our article on it that this is actually a notable award, but rather a popularity contest "Highly commended" by TES is not an award. In addition, the article is written in such a way as to read like a press release for her, and to promote her work. .

You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Elly Barnes and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

DGG ( talk ) 20:23, 5 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have posted this response on DGG's talk page: I have removed reference to being 'highly commended by TES' as I could not find documented evidence in the public domain to support this. In terms of independent substantial evidence currently there are three key areas I cite that refer to the ground-breaking and unique role Barnes has in challenging homophobia in schools: 1. Barnes is employed as a LGBT special schools advisor by Birmingham City Council (ref 9) 2. Barnes is employed as a LGBT special schools advisor by Durham County Council (ref 10) 3. The Ofsted report that quotes and references the work of Barnes as 'best practice' (ref 11) The fact Barnes was recognised for her work by being number 1 on the Independent on Sunday Pink List in 2011 and in the top quartile in subsequent years is in itself an independent verification and valid reference. Sue Perkins also includes these as wikipedia references. There are a number of independent newspaper and news references that I can add but I did not want this to be disproportionate to content provided. I believe the language used is dry and factual, not self promotional and this is one of the things I amended based on your previous feedback. I have been reading the wiki-guidance and reviewing other articles on comparable individuals that cite no or very few references to support statements made about them e.g Sue Sanders, Shaun Dellenty so there still seems to be a lack of consistency across wikipedia regarding this point. Of course I am happy to review content and do some more work on the article before I resubmit. JulesatEducate&Celebrate (talk) 01:38, 6 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Following further feedback I have removed two further paragraphs under the 'Educate & Celebrate' heading as further advice given indicated they were not biographical. Plus I have added 4 x newspaper citations, 3 x Guardian and 1 x Independent in response to your notability point. There are other news references I could add if necessary but these 4 are the key ones I think. JulesatEducate&Celebrate (talk) 13:32, 6 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Elly Barnes (December 6)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DGG was:

I continue to regard this of borderline notability, with almost all sources being either written by her or interviews of her, or mere links to her programme. It is also essentially an advertisement for that programme.

You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Proud Canaries, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Trans.

disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. —me_and 14:24, 17 March 2021 (UTC) You have given me no time to respond to this before you have suggested the page i edited it deleted. i am not a paid wikipedia editor for this page - I have very clearly stated i am a trustee of educate & celebrate, which is a charity. I am about to do some more editing of the page, and will review the other points you have made. Thank you for the feedback. JulesatEducate&Celebrate (talk) 14:44, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Educate & Celebrate for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Educate & Celebrate is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Educate & Celebrate until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

—me_and 14:38, 17 March 2021 (UT

I find it incredibly unhelpful that you have posted three comments in a very short space of time and not let me respond before you have suggested deletion of this page. I feel LGBT+ history and organisations are being erased on here - but if the Stonewall charity, a UK charity is on here, then Educate & Celebrate (a UK-based charity) should be in this space too. I know there are rules about posting and you can surely see that I am trying to update the page recently. Presumably if I had not bothered to try and update it, no one would have noticed, but as soon as you try and change anything on here, people jump on your amendments. I feel really deflated, and i am such a fan of Wikipedia. JulesatEducate&Celebrate (talk) 14:56, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
