- ~~~ Hi Tipsy, thanks for pointing out that I did copy one phrase from that article: "working with women's right initiatives in more than 80 countries for over 40 years". I did cite it but neglected to add quotes, sorry. The entirety of the rest of the article is made of my own words, and should be reassessed as such. Warm thanks.

[edit]- Yeah, such is the problem too often with feminist work; it is collaborative and uncredited.
- Joanne Sandler is an incredibly influential in the global women's movement, working behind the scenes to change the face of UN Women e.g. and expand funding for women's issues from 18M to 220M at the UN. It's a challenge to prove her work has not been "trivial". But that's why I'm here! :) I'll keep researching. Thanks. JDHumphreys (talk) 18:43, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
- I added several more citations and information. Hopefully this can get the page up, so people better informed than me can contribute. :) JDHumphreys (talk) 19:53, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

[edit]- I appreciate your thoughts, but I take issue with your language ("fluff" "namedropping" "scraps" "no, just no"). I may not be a great Wiki writer, but this woman is an important feminist. She works, like many women, from behind the scenes, rarely up front. Hence the "scraps" of references. Please help make it better with wise advice not put downs. Thanks!

- If she is important, she deserves a neutral biography. Saying, with a link to the podcast, who's been on her podcast, that is the very definition of namedropping, and "global thought leader"--well, it suggests that you do not really appreciate that we need to be neutral here. I didn't say anything that hasn't been said before. If you look at my edits you will see (maybe--I hope you see it) that I actually improved the article and its chances of being accepted. Drmies (talk) 12:52, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
- You're right. It's a challenge to maintain neutral language. Thanks for the advice.
- Re namedropping. I thought the names on the podcast would demonstrate its legitimacy, not just show off.
- Thanks. JDHumphreys (talk) 12:56, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, I know, but here's the thing--that demonstration is a multi-step road. Person A is on his podcast, Person A is notable, therefore the podcast is notable. Have a look at WP:NOTINHERITED, which is relevant here. Now, if a secondary source says Person A was on the podcast, then that source must have thought that the actual appearance was noteworthy, and that will help. But for everything that is designed to add to notability, we need secondary sources. (BTW, I am not going to say she's not notable, not at all, and I think she might well be--it's just that the article doesn't prove it yet.) Good luck, Drmies (talk) 17:09, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks very much JDHumphreys (talk) 19:35, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
