Joelle James

Thank you for all of your continued contributions on the Joelle James page! I really appreciate your assistance. Just a heads up: Any edits I make of your contributions are only to maintain the citation standard, and to ensure that the page does not get deleted for sounding too self-promotional or unlike an encyclopedia. Please do not take any edits personally. I simply do not want this page to get deleted.

Cheers and enjoy the rest of your week! Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 04:02, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How do I add her songwriting credits properly? I don't want my contribution to cause any deletions, either. So I appreciate you keeping the standard. GlobalMachinery (talk) 04:26, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You are doing an awesome job of adding the songwriting credits. Just be very careful with citations, and use the <ref> buttons at the bottom of the edit interface to surround your sources instead of citing directly to them. Keep up the great work!

I'm not perfect at source code yet. Can we work together to get it right? Would you be able to add the code? Or Am I asking too much? GlobalMachinery (talk) 04:41, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No worries at all. We can definitely work together. Just keep making additions, and I'll check the page every so often to see if anything needs to be tweaked or citations added. If I see any code that needs to be added, I'll do it. You're doing a good job! Peace. Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 05:01, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, that works, thank you! GlobalMachinery (talk) 05:03, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Why does her birthday keep getting taken down? Also, are you the creator of this article? How do we add a photo of her? GlobalMachinery (talk) 15:57, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, How can we get her birthday up and done properly? Shouldn't this state facts about her that people searching would want to know? GlobalMachinery (talk) 12:41, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely. Not sure why that other user has become obsessed over the page, but simply find a reputable source that mentions her birthday. Hope that helps. Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 18:50, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I will be looking for that. I do notice that other celebrities not have their birthdays Cited. How come we have to do it here? Also, that other user is really a pain, I'm glad you challenged them. Do you know if only a creator of an article can add a photo of the artist? GlobalMachinery (talk) 21:28, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To the best of my knowledge, anyone can add a photo. It just has to be a photo that you have ownership of / creative commons?. Please look at the related manuals before proceeding, as copyright infringement is very serious.

Hi, do you know if "Famous Birthdays' considered a reputable source? GlobalMachinery (talk) 01:51, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:FAMOUSBIRTHDAYS. As a rule of of thumb, a website with famous/celeb in the name is probably not a WP:RS. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:59, 11 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Phaedra Butler

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 Phaedra Butler requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. Liz ^{Read!

Phaedra Butler moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Phaedra Butler, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Phaedra Butler (July 14)

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

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:
