Kevin Feng

Some real sources that are independent of the subject (i.e. not his own webpage, not the webpages of shows and events he's been directly involved in, not people's MySpace pages, etc.) would go a long way... Bearcat (talk) 15:30, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, the reason VH1's webpage isn't a reliable source is that it's the webpage of a show that he starred in — which means that it's not independent coverage of him, but promotional content posted by a company with which he had a direct financial relationship. Similarly, PRWeb isn't an independent source, either, as it's just a press release distribution service — I could post something to PRWeb if I wanted to, but that wouldn't in and of itself make me notable enough to be an encyclopedia topic. People's MySpace pages and his own blog also don't count as reliable sources, because they're self-published pages that can include inaccurate and/or promotional content that hasn't been vetted by an editorial process the way newspaper coverage is. The Toledo Blade article does count, but the problem there is that our policy also requires substantial coverage, which means the Toledo Blade article can't be the only valid source in the article.

Our reliable sources policy is very largely about distinguishing between good sources (coverage in independent media) and bad ones (the topic's own website, their own press releases, etc.), precisely because pretty much every single thing and nearly every single person in at least the developed world would qualify for an article if we didn't maintain a distinction between real coverage and the person's own Twitter account.

The article will be at User:Kip 78/Kevin Feng. Sorry for the delay, but you know, weekend... Bearcat (talk) 20:00, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay to use the VH1 link as a confirming reference for additional information once enough other sources have been added to establish basic notability; it just can't be used as the core "he's notable because of this link" reference. His own blog might be more useful as an external link instead of a reference, though.

To cite more than one piece of information to the same reference, what you do is:

The first time you're citing that reference, give it a "name" by opening the ref tag with <ref name=NAME> instead of just "ref". (but you still close the tag with just </ref>.) Generally you should use a name that reflects the reference in some way (the name of the publication, the name of the author, a word from the title, etc.) The only restriction is that you can't give two distinct references the same name — so if you had two different references to different articles in the same publication, you could name them "nytjan15" and "nytsep22" (or "nytsmith" and "nytjones", if the journalists were Jane Smith and Jerry Jones), or some other distinguishing feature that keeps the two references from getting confused.
The second, third, fourth, etc., times you're citing a particular reference, instead of providing the complete reference again you just use <ref name=NAME /> instead. This tag closes itself with the /, so you don't need to add a </ref> afterward.

Hope that helps. Bearcat (talk) 15:09, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin feng

I had the chance to read through the article and check out all your sources. I'm not sure if the article has a chance since Kevin Feng isn't automatically notable, but I'll be happy to help out with some copyediting and cleaning up. I'll start tomorrow...let's see if we get anywhere with it and if I can find better/more secondary resources (a lot of the current ones need to go). ~dee^(talk?) 21:16, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Waterlogic PLC

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 Waterlogic PLC, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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, you can place a request here. DGG ( talk ) 18:42, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

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

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. 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. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Survey Invite

I'm working on a study of political motivations and how they effect editing. I'd like to ask you to take a survey. The survey should take 5 minutes. Your survey responses will be kept private. Our project is documented at m:Research:Wikipedia + Politics.

Survey Link: http://uchicago.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eXOHLbXwbpfYC1f?Q_DL=e3DsAymc9y4ljrD_eXOHLbXwbpfYC1f_MLRP_cUxzXslxGXhP5yJ&Q_CHL=gl

I am asking you to participate in this study because you are a frequent editor of pages on Wikipedia that are of political interest. We would like to learn about your experiences in dealing with editors of different political orientations.

Sincere thanks for your help! Porteclefs (talk) 15:20, 16 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Sierrasil-logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Sierrasil-logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:10, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
