Hamim Tohari

Created by Jeromi Mikhael (talk). Self-nominated at 17:11, 7 August 2022 (UTC).

  • Comment: Jeromi Mikhael, a QPQ is supposed to be provided within a week of nominating at DYK. If it is not provided in the next seven days, the nomination may be closed. Please supply a QPQ before then. Thank you very much. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:22, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
    • @BlueMoonset: Really sorry for my ignorance to this rule. I've supplied a QPQ now. Regards, Jeromi Mikhael 00:57, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
  • Full review needed now that QPQ has been provided. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:35, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
  • Starting review now... -- RoySmith (talk) 13:52, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Article is new enough and long enough.
  • Looking at id:Hamim Tohari, it appears that this is very close to an automated translation of that article, lacking any proper attribution.
  • @LordPeterII: For clarification, the original article in the Indonesian language was written by me. Previously the Indonesian article was in a resume format. I translated the article manually. Regards, Jeromi Mikhael 01:20, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
It still needs proper attribution. Please see WP:Translation#License requirements -- RoySmith (talk) 11:02, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
  • The article appears to be properly referenced, but as noted, all of the sources are in Indonesian, so I'm unable to really evaluate them. WP:DYKR requires in this case that I verify the basic facts, or at the very least, the existence of the article subject. I have been unable to find any English language sources which would let me do this. I suspect that this would fail WP:ANYBIO if brought to AfD. Given that article makes negative statements (i.e. the subject being dismissed from his post for cause) in a WP:BLP, this is a serious problem.
  • The BLP question above notwithstanding, I don't see any problems with WP:NPOV per-se.
  • @LordPeterII: You might want to translate the sources you want to evaluate by using Google Translate. Regards, Jeromi Mikhael 01:20, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
  • I think the hook fails the "puts undue emphasis on a negative aspect of a living individual" test.
  • QPQ done.

  • Pinging @Juxlos as someone who has had Indonesian articles appear at DYK and might be able to help with evaluating the article's basic facts.
If the hook is deemed to negative, it might be changed to emphasize that while he was first dsimissed, he shortly afterwards became army spokesperson (which makes the incident seem less grave of a fault). –LordPickleII (talk) 18:41, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
Having somebody who can read the sources in the original language sounds like a good idea, thanks. -- RoySmith (talk) 20:20, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
@Jeromi Mikhael: Ah, I'm not the reviewer, just thought I could help. Btw, you might want to consider adding some Wikipedia:Babel to your (enwiki) userpage, so others can more easily check that you know what you are doing! @RoySmith: The article author has replied above, and I think they know what they are doing. –LordPickleII (talk) 07:31, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
  • @RoySmith: reading through the Indonesian sources, his dismissal is quite extensively discussed and is a significant part of his notability. Even his appointment to the new post mentions the dismissal incident in length. I'd say it doesn't violate BLP. Juxlos (talk) 07:11, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Thank you. It's recommended that {{Translated page}} include the exact version you translated from, but what you've got meets the minimum requirement, so this is good to go now. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:13, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
