Notability

edit

I have requested that User:SwisterTwister move this back to creator's user space because of notability concerns. Article lacks secondary, RS. E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:41, 3 August 2016 (UTC)Reply


I have added more secondary references, I suggest you all to go through them, rather than going through google keyword search results. these references are from verifiable sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sfaafsar (talkcontribs) 16:33, 9 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Regarding issues

edit

Greetings User:SwisterTwister E.M.Gregory, thank you for reviewing the wikipage Syed_Hasan_(writer), before I can make any changes to the page according to the policy of wikipedia, I would like to know how this came under the WP:BLP category as the person has already died years ago?

.

Next, about the primary references. that was before when the article was poorly sourced and got rejected. after that, I edited and made proper changes that lead to acceptance of the article by User:SwisterTwister . most of the part of the page is backed up by references to secondary sources after the edit. where's the confusion now?

and lastly about the Notability issue as far as I understood, there are various criteria for a person notability of them few are:

  • "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times.
  • The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field"
  • Many scientists, researchers, philosophers and other scholars (collectively referred to as "academics" for convenience) are notably influential in the world of ideas without their biographies being the subject of secondary sources.


Well there are 2 awards which have secondary sources attached to them, these 2 awards have no dedicated pages on wikipedia as of now, but there are plenty of recipients of these prestigious awards which include many researchers, and academics who have contributed to the world of ideas and are notable enough to get these awards themselves, a proof of their notability, for which there are many secondary sources available(in different languages), if these aren't enough, I would add them as well, and update their page on Wikipedia as well, as the subject I am covering is vast and very few of them have been updated on wiki as of now. So, I suggest you give me a little more time to add them all, I am working alone and need participants.

I understand it's a may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. but I suggest a "Keep" for this article as the pages haven't been completely updated yet.Sfaafsar (talk) 12:20, 9 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
