Talk:Regina Rheda

AfC discussion

It was declined before for lack of sources, no sources added from what I can se. Resubmitting should only happen if you actually address the problems first.MPJ-DK (talk) 21:52, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Can you tell us which of the criteria at WP:AUTHOR this person satisfies? Also the article is written in a slightly biased way, e.g. "She made an auspicious debut", and some of the sentences are subjective, e.g. " She is known for her style full of wit and irony." These need to be fixed. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:11, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I think maybe she is borderline notability. If you could find some sources for the prizes she has won it would help. Also, could you wikify the whole article? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 07:12, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

HELP! SOMEONE HACKED INTO THIS PAGE WITH FAKE HEIGHT AND WEIGHT AND NET WORTH INFO AND WE CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO DELETE. IT DOES NOT SHOW UP IN THE EDIT WINDOW! AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE UNDER AUTHORITY CONTROL. WE DID DELETE THE REFERENCES BUT THE VALID ONE DISAPPEARED TOO. WEIRD. Charlesaperrone (talk) 20:52, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

Since anyone with an internet connection can edit this article, "hacked" isn't really the word. But it wasn't a good edit, and has been dealt with. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 12:30, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Please let me know if the following is what you are seeking. I can work on the formatting after content is approved. thanks again

Charlesaperrone (talk) 18:07, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

No, not really. The Wikipedia links are not what we call reliable. What we need is a reliable source which verifies that she has won this award. This could be a newspaper article, or an official website of the organisation. English is preferred, but Portguese would be fine too. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 18:19, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

@MSGJ I found one, so I added it. A little late perhaps. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:07, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

  • This [3] is published and in-depth, but IMO not independent since it's the intro to her book. May have some use with care and in-text attribution. Also, who is Christopher Dunn? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:23, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

  Hello! Christopher Dunn is a scholar at Tulane University, New Orleans: Professor Department of Spanish & Portuguese Tulane ... Christopher Dunn received his Ph.D. in Luso-Brazilian Studies from Brown University etc.

  As for the citation needed in “thought-provoking”, here’s the source. Could you please do this?:

  Brazilians are natural comparatists. Prof. Earf Fitz's interview with Revista Brasileira de Literatura Comparada. 24 (45). Jan Apr 2022. Scielo Brazil.

  Thanks and added. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 16:29, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

  Thank you. But I think the words — witty and thought-provoking [prose fiction] — should be kept in the entry because the source says “ We regard [Rheda’s stories] as funny and poignant, but thought provoking as well.” Leminhor (talk) 16:55, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

  And that's in the article, though I excluded his students. But for this to be a general statement in the WP:LEAD, much stronger sources are needed. We can say that someone has published novels, that they've sold a lot of books, that they've won awards, but to declare in WP:s voice that they are witty and thought-provoking is something else, WP:PROMO. But we can mention that Fitz thought so, and if there's other WP:RS "reception", we can include that too. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:15, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

• Maria Cláudia André and Eva Paulino Bueno, editors. Latin American Women Writers: An Encyclopedia. New York: Routledge, 2008.
  • Quite useful, and it's free to register at archive.org. The author of the entry [4] is [5]. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 12:46, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

  Very good! Also: I suggest that you replace the sentence *Academic Earl Fitz.... thought-provoking as well* with the sentence *Brazilianist Earl Fitz includes Rheda among his favorite Brazilian contemporary writers, calling her short fictions "funny and poignant, but thought provoking as well.".* Here are the citations: Brazilianist [ Wikipedia page Brazilianist]. Earl E. Fitz [3 citations: 1) his curriculum: https://as.vanderbilt.edu/photos/spanish-and-portuguese/files/EEFitzCV2022.pdf. It says: Mid-Atlantic Association of Luso-Brazilianists 1. Founding member, 1986; 2) https://thedeviltopayinthebacklands.wordpress.com/2010/10/14/interview-with-dr-earl-e-fitz/ It bears the Vanderbilt University logo and says: in my own work, as a Brazilianist, a Latin Americanist, as a comparatist, and as an inter-Americanist. 3) https://muse.jhu.edu/article/192624 . It says: The relative obscurity of Brazil on the international literary scene, particularly when compared to Spanish America after the so-called "boom" years, has long been a cause for consternation among Brazilianist academic circles. In his ambitious literary survey Brazilian Narrative Traditions in a Comparative Context, Earl E. Fitz makes a persuasive case for reevaluating Brazil's contribution ] Thanks.

  Shouldn’t the editors’ names, Maria Cláudia André and Eva Paulino Bueno, appear in the Reference as well? Leminhor (talk) 18:32, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

  About the reference *Latin American Women Writers: An Encyclopedia. New York.*: shouldn’t the names of the editors (Maria Cláudia André and Eva Paulino Bueno) and the name of the publisher (Routledge) appear in the reference too? Leminhor (talk) 17:07, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
