Images

Hi, i'm not an expert on images but it is notoriously difficult and bureaucratic to upload images of living people either on Wikipedia or Wikicommons. Its probably best to ask at the help desk and they will give you some helpful links, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 00:20, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Paul (Pioneerpauly) Larouche moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Paul (Pioneerpauly) Larouche, does not have enough sources and citations 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. ~Amkgp ✉ 05:13, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please explain why you deleted this article. The information given was available publicly through the pages that were cited at the end of the article.

Information regarding Paul's life was given to me by Paul himself.

Help me!

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please help me with... Draft:Paul Larouche

Could someone please explain to me what is wrong with this page? All of the information I have used was available from the pages cited under references, or came from Paul himself.

I would have included pictures to show him on the various sets, and in scenes, but I am not allowed to upload pictures, (even when I have full authorization to use them). Witrin (talk) 23:58, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Quite simply, your draft lacks reliable sources that can be used to verify the information and demonstrate notability. For biographies of living persons, a reader must be able to go to a provided source to check the information and/or read more about the content the reference is supporting. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.

The information I used was provided on the various sites given under references. Am I wrong in thinking that Facebook, YouTube, IMDB and Pinterest are NOT considered reliable?

Indeed. All of those sites are considered user-generated content and are not considered reliable. Getting information directly from the source by some private communication is also not considered 'published', so can also not be cited.

Additional barriers to accepting your draft are that it does not include inline citations, which are required for an article of this type. Why would you include an unconfirmed net worth? Everything you put in the infobox and into the body text of the article must be verifiable by looking at the cited source. Anything which can't be verified needs to go. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 01:58, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Really?!? The unconfirmed Net worth was a little humour...or should have been. I guess...since there is no way to get "reliable" sources, (even though there is photographic evidence on the sites provided), I guess I won't bother then. Interesting circle...can't get published unless you're "reliable"...can't be considered reliable until you're published...
