Disambiguation link notification for March 20
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lobby 99, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages ILS and Legal Advisor. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Dan Allon
[edit]Hello Pavner,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Dan Allon for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. TheLongTone (talk) 15:13, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Overlinking
[edit]Hi, thanks for your good work. Please note my changes here. On en.WP, there are stricter linking policies than on other WPs. Years, dates, and most commonly understood words are not linked unless there's a good reason to do so. Tony (talk) 07:59, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
- Understood, thanks a lot! --Pavner (talk) 08:50, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Sources
[edit]Please add your sources to Gabriel Garran - as a biography of a living person it needs clear, WP:INLINECITED sources. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 20:53, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
- Dear Boleyn, aren't his IMDb profile, his personal website and the list of his books and their ISBNs (found in WorldCat) enough? E.g. the IMDb Trivia section says: "Born in a French Jewish family of Polish origins in Paris in the 1930s, he was obliged to flee persecution in Nazis occupied France as told in his autobiography 'Géographie française'. After the war,he became an actor and founded in 1965 the 'Théâtre de la commune d'Aubervilliers' ,the first permanent theater in French suburbs. He manged that theater and staged in it numerous plays." Thanks, Pavner (talk) 22:24, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, Pavner, thanks for responding. Imdb is specifically described as unreliable at WP:RELIABLESOURCES and someone's own website, a primary source, isn't the best either, or confirmation that he has published books - none of it is significant coverage in multiple independent and reliable sources. The main issues though are that there are no references showing, just 'external links' which means 'suggestions for further reading' rather than meaning those links were used as sources in the writing of the article. Also if you click on WP:INLINECITE you'll see that it's a requirement for references on biographies of living people to be inline, not just listed at the end. At the moment, it's unclear that the subject is notable. Best wishes, Boleyn (talk) 06:40, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
- Dear Boleyn, is it ok now? Thanks, Pavner (talk) 23:02, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
