Nomination of Karen McGrane for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Karen McGrane is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Karen McGrane until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

- I saw your note on the deleting administrator's user talk page. Then I looked for the google cache version of her article, which will be available for a few more days. I would have left a !vote for keep. Not every author is notable. Not every professor is notable. Notability should depend on whether RS write about an individual. Sadly, many AFD nominators are unwilling or unable to comply with WP:BEFORE. Other nominators' nominations make nominations that boil down to "Well, if I were a newspaper's senior editor, I wouldn't allow my reporters to write about this individual, who I personally consider a nobody," without clueing in to how counter-policy this is. We are supposed to rely on the opinions in RS. We are supposed to recognize that our own personal opinions are completely irrelevant.
- Have you considered asking for the article to be "userified"? This allows you to (temporarily) hide it from search engines, in userspace, so we can work on them, at leisure, and address the stated justifications, if any, offered at the AFD. If you decide the enhanced version is ready, you can move it back to article space. If people consider the new version isn't sufficiently different, some people might get grumpy with you. But if you can add new things, awards, more publications, being given a named chair, spending a sabbatical at a prestigious institution, these would all counter the notion she was a nobody. I see multiple Forbes articles mention her. Profiles in prestigious newspapers or magazines should help.

Could use pointers on article (nun biography)
Greetings Sweet kate,
so I have recently joined Women in Red, and by the end of July had semi-randomly settled on some potential candidates of the suggested July Julies (turns out she was actually misplaced there since her name is not related to July, but oh well, July is over anyway ^^). However, I have come across two problems that I'd like to solve before continuing turning the sources into prose. And I hope you might be able to help me with that, or at least point me in the right direction.
a) She Wikidata for Irma La Fer de la Motte was a nun living at Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods under Théodore Guérin there. I saw you had started several of the articles of the later leaders (which is why I came here), and on some you used the template Infobox religious biography. I thought it looked nice and would somewhat fit my article, too, so I copied it (into my sandbox). However, I then realized it contained some parameters which I do not understand, and the template does not have a documentation about these. Primarily, this is about the "profession", which makes a subsection called senior posting appear in the infobox - and I know neither why, nor whether that makes sense for my biography. Also, naming conventions are not clear to me, so e.g. where/whether to use birth_name and monastic_name. Basically, I don't know much about nuns in general, but would still like to write the article. Could you give me some pointers? Does the infobox template even fit? (Note: I posted a question about this on wikiproject: religion before, but activity there seems to be quite low)
b) Wikidata. For the articles I had created before in mainspace, a Wikidata item was created some time after. I do not fully understand that process, and for this article it can not be the same, since I am actually working from an existing Wikidata item to form the article. So...
- How do I link the article (once in mainspace) to the wikidata item? I'm afraid that if I do nothing, it will just create a duplicate data item, which can't be right.
- I have two sources that both state she was born 15 April 1816, not 16 April as Wikidata holds - and also definitely not 1818, as the referenced value claims (her death date is correct). I cannot verify the reference, as it only points to the "Catholic Encyclopedia", and when I search in it (at archive.org) I can not find an entry for either her normal or religious (?) name. So, can I just edit Wikidata to rectify this? (Wikidata confuses me a bit in general, I must admit)
So yeah, I hope you can help me with that. Cheers! --LordPeterII (talk) 22:57, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- @LordPeterII: Let me see what I can help with!
- a) That religious biography infobox certainly has some in-crowd terms, and a fair number of them only apply to priests who follow really specific career trajectories. You can just ignore anything that doesn't quite make sense. Regarding the names: Some (not all) people who enter religious life take a religious/monastic name they then go by in daily life. So a person born "Anna Anderson" may take the religious name "Sister Mary Alma" — her birth name would be Anna Anderson, and her religious name would be [Sister] Mary Alma. (It's tricky to decide what to name the whole article, but I try to find the name they were most known by in the most active part of their life. Often for clarity, it's the religious name plus last name, like Mary Alma Anderson — then explain the situation in the article.)
- b) Re: Wikidata. Wikidata is in-the-background, language-independent database of Wikipedia facts. When it works well, it lets people of any language go and see the basic facts and sources of a particular item, to either write an article or in their language or otherwise learn about a topic. Lots of editors (and bots) do work on Wikidata to fill in info and create new Wikidata items when new articles are written, which is how items got added for articles you wrote. When the Wikidata item already exists, you can link it to the Wikipedia article by going to Wikidata and adding the English article in the "Wikipedia" area. Like here for Mother Theodore Guerin d:Q434579 you can see all the language Wikipedia articles linked to the Wikidata item — to add a new one you include the language code ("en") and the name of your new article, and then they're linked.
- Wikidata sourcing is tricky, especially when old sources contradict. If you're confident in your data, you can edit existing statements, or add additional ones and include your source. For this one, I'd maybe edit the unsourced one to match your sources, and then add the sources below as part of the statement. (And just leave the weird Catholic Encyclopedia one there too). Wikidata makes sense the more time you spend there, but it's definitely overwhelming at first. My rule of thumb with Wikidata is always to look at similar people who are fleshed out and see how they do it, and copy the methods used there. Good luck! Sweet kate (talk) 19:41, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
- @Sweet kate: Thanks! Alright, guess then I'll leave out anything I'm unsure about, and if necessary someone else can add it in the article later.
- And I suppose I understand now what Wikidata is, I'm just a tad skeptical about it. I mean, half the pages I've looked at there lack any sources, and others - like the one here - only have very few that are only sourced to "some book", but not the page within or any way to easily verify the claim. And while the nun I am writing about isn't a living person, I kinda like the rigour with which BLP article verification is enforced on Wikipedia, and am not sure whether it is the same on Wikidata (I somehow doubt it). But I guess I'll just stay on the Wikipedia side for now, and only link articles in as you said - how to do that was the information I was missing, so thanks :) --LordPeterII (talk) 20:47, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Beatien Yazz.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Beatien Yazz.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:34, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

The article List of tourist attractions in Terre Haute, Indiana has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Policies violated by this page:
WP:NOTDIRECTORY "Simple listings without contextual information showing encyclopedic merit."
WP:NOTGUIDE Wikipedia is not a travel guide. We have Wikitravel for that, and many of these pages could be recreated (or already are) there.
The core content policies are: 1) neutral point of view, 2) no original research and 3) verifiability. This page violages policies 2 and 3.
WP:VERIFY What are the criteria to meet to be in the list? This page has vague or no criteria. By definition, then, there is no way to verify the inclusion or exclusion of any particular site in the list.
WP:NOR Original research "includes any analysis or synthesis of published material that serves to reach or imply a conclusion not stated by the sources. To demonstrate that you are not adding original research, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material being presented." Who says that each of the items in the list are tourist attractions? Given the lack of inclusion criteria, that's understandable, as there is no need to justify being in a list that doesn't have standards for inclusion. However, that also points to original research as being the source for inclusion.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Women in Red 8th Anniversary

Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
| In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |
