The_Floating_Piers

Hi there, please see WP:RS on why we need a reliable source stating the facts that you are trying to add to The Floating Piers article. Just adding those sentences and pointing to a company's website does not meet Wikipedia's standards for reliably-sourced info. Reliable secondary sources are also preferred; otherwise, anyone could put up their own website and claim they worked on this project or that. Obviously that wouldn't work. Thanks.

(copied/pasted by Rockypedia) Currently we have a page for the project - http://deep-dive-systems.com/the-floating-piers-lago-diseo/

Everything is described there. We also have a couple if interviews (like: http://www.interview.to/%D0%B1%D0%B3/%D0%B0%D1%80%D1%85%D0%B8%D0%B2/2017/march/%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0-%D0%B8-%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%B5%D0%BD/) but they are all in Bulgarian. So they are not a suitable choice for the English version of Wikipedia.

Our work is being mentiond in very few places (like: http://www.widewalls.ch/the-floating-piers-christo-jeanne-claude/), but I don't see how that is a more reliable source than our website itself? — Preceding unsigned comment added by LB-IdeaMAX (talk • contribs) 14:15, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Again, please read WP:RS - specifically the section on "Primary, secondary, and tertiary sources." The page in Bulgarian actually is a preferable source, because it's a secondary source. Understand that anyone, including me, could put on their own website, "I worked on the Floating Piers project and I did a great job", but obviously, that would not be an appropriate source to use for Wikipedia - otherwise, everyone would do that for whatever information they wanted added to the encyclopedia.

I'm trying to get Google to translate the Bulgarian page for me, and I'll add your company info to the page once I can read that source. Rockypedia (talk) 14:30, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I added a couple of sentences based on the info in that article. Thanks for pointing me to that! It was very helpful. Rockypedia (talk) 15:02, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
