== Deleted page - Frank Golding (author) == | |||
Hi there, | |||
You recently deleted a draft biography page I created for an author, Frank Golding, on the grounds that the sources were largely from the subject himself. I tried to include a substantial amount of source from reputable newspapers and archives, but I would be happy to return to the draft and add more if it could be restored. Finally, if there is any wikipedia guidance on striking a balance for sources for memoirists that would be helpful - the details of the subject's biography are of course sometimes unavoidably best drawn from his own published work because memoir is about the self. Many thanks for your consideration. ] (]) 02:32, 8 January 2025 (UTC)DeEsCeHa | |||

== Abattoir Fermé == | |||
Dear Jimfbleak, | |||
thanks for reviewing but after some thought I can't really understand why the page for Abattoir Fermé was marked for speedy deletion by Vanjaganie and consequently deleted by you. | |||
You state 'self-promotion' and 'similar content as available on the artist's website' as reasons, but I'd like to bring out the following counter-arguments: | |||
- this English article is an abridged version of what is also available on the subject on the Belgian Wiki and which had been contributed and redacted by several other Wikipedians other than just myself. I tried to only keep the most (internationally) relevant info for this version in order to contribute a short, factual, introductory article on a theatre company that is regularly a guest on internationally known festivals and venues. | |||
- Some content bears indeed resemblance to what the artist write about theirselves on their own page, but I tried to be critical about that: the tone of the article is in my opinion not self-promotional at all, rather neutral. For example: naming the key members and stating that said theatre company is active in diverse sub-genres (puppet theatre, dance, visual theatre etc.) is hardly being promotional, but rather a factual statement, no? Would like to hear your thoughts. | |||
I'm rather new to Wiki but try to do my best in my field of expertise and am therefore open for any input! For example, what would you suggest to improve the article on Abattoir Fermé and where? If sources (obviously other than the artists themselves) are needed, where exactly would citation be neededd and which specific sections of the article need improvement? | |||
Thanks! | |||
PS - I also sent Vanjagenie the same questions and arguments. | |||

== Wan't spam == | |||
Greetings. I added the link to the video "My Life as a Turkey" which you removed from ], alleging it to be "spam". I have no connection whatsoever with the video or any of the artists, though I did watch it online today for the first time. I checked to see if the video or the author of the book and video was notable and there seems to be good grounds for regarding the video as notable, since it won an Emmy award. So I created a page: ]. As someone who lives around turkeys but is not an ornithologist I found this video fascinating and informative. Plus it's notable. I believe this gives good grounds for restoring it as an external link. I don't see why you say it wasn't available, I had not trouble watching it online. Please explain here or on ] if you still believe a link is inappropriate. Otherwise, let's restore it. Thanks. -- ] (]) 08:07, 5 January 2014 (UTC) | |||
:Hello Jim, thanks for your thoughtful response over at my talk page. It's disturbing to know that you aren't able to view that video - I didn't know that sort of thing happened, broken down by country like that (I am in US). Anyway, sounds like that's just a fact of life, and I see it reduces the interest of an external link. However, I do want to add two points of fact: The book '']'' is not about domestic turkeys - it is completely about wild turkeys. Therefore a link would seem ''more'' appropriate, not less, at the wild turkey article than at a domestic turkey article.<br> Second, permit me to point out that the ] article is an ''encyclopedia'' article, not a biology article (please beware of ]). If it is not covered elsewhere in a fork, perhaps the article should be expanded to cover wild turkeys in media, or something like that (the film itself is arguably a form of ethology, although, as you say, it might not be regarded as an RS for that purpose). Or if there is not enough material for a new section on turkeys in media, then the "see also" would be an appropriate place for such a link. As an award-winning film, this material is appropriate for inclusion in such coverage. And such coverage is part of the mission of an ''encyclopedia''. Please consider these issues, and respond appropriately. Thank you and have a nice day. -- ] (]) 19:38, 5 January 2014 (UTC) | |||
::PS Two additional comments: 1) When I made my first comment above, I had seen that you deleted something from Wild Turkey / See also section, and assumed it was this video, but it was something else. Glad you agree it's OK to leave in See also section (that was my major thrust above - but I had jumped to conclusions!); 2) Yes my first insertion of the external link was misphrased, and placed too great emphasis on book; anyway, that's moot, now, since video can't be viewed everywhere. I am content with pages at present. Please have a pleasant week. -- ] (]) 20:11, 5 January 2014 (UTC) | |||
