File source problem with File:Renee Rosenzweig & Jay P. Rosenzweig.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Renee Rosenzweig & Jay P. Rosenzweig.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 03:54, 15 November 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Renee Rosenzweig

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Renee Rosenzweig requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 16:08, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Status and Advice

As reviewing administrator, I deleted it--both on the above grounds, that these were routine philanthropic activities that do not constitute encyclopedic notability , but also on the grounds of its's apparently entirely promotional nature, requiring rewriting from scratch even if it was a suitable subject.

I need to warn you about our policy on WP:Conflict of Interest--you are apparently working as a press agent for the people and company that are the subject of your articles. Such editing is very strongly discouraged. As a general rule, a suitable page will be best written by someone without Conflict of Interest; it's not impossible to do it properly as a paid press agent, but it's relatively more difficult: you are automatically thinking in terms of what the subject wishes to communicate to the public, but an uninvolved person will think in terms of what the public might wish to know.

The article must describe the career, not praise it. Description of the underlying problem the person or company is trying to solve is promotional--the articles on that topic will provide the necessary information. Inclusion of minor community matters is considered promotional. Use of adjectives of praise is considered promotional. Repeating the name of the subject many times is promotional--as is the PR practice of referring to a person who is the subject of the article by their first name; and encyclopedia is a work of reference; after the first use of the full name, we use the last name by itself, or just "he" e.g. "After that, Rosenzweig ..." or "After that, he ..." Remember not to copy from a web site, even your their -- first it's a copyright violation, but, even if you own the copyright and are willing to give us permission according to WP:DCM, the tone will not be encyclopedic and the material will not be suitable.

In particular, avoid unnecessary or excessive linking and use of external references. An external link in particular is meant to be a selected place that will expand the information, not every possible mention. Avoid discussing the same material in the article about the person as the firm.

If you think you can do it right according to our guidelines, do so, but expect the article to be carefully checked for objectivity.

The article on the company needs some editing, and I will do it. The article on Jay P. Rosenzweig needs so much editing that, although I have a good deal of experience rewriting promotional articles here, I am not sure it is possible; if I decide I cannot, I will nominate it for speedy deletion, and another administrator will decide. My first step will be removing external links; my second, removing adjectives. My third step will be removing duplication.

I'm adding a formal warning below, for the record. DGG ( talk ) 17:53, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

November 2011

Please stop your Conflict of Interest editing. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. DGG ( talk ) 17:54, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

• Twinkle does not add a warning here, as User:Bnorrena was not the creator, but I've just nominated the other bio article for deletion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jay P. Rosenzweig. Fair warning. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:02, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
• As I mention here, if this article is deleted (which seems likely) I hope this is not going to cause problems for you at work.I meant that. The problem is a lack of reliable sources about Rosenzweig, and of course your conflict of interest doesn't help. But it's really the lack of independent coverage which is the killer. If you lose the article, and get shit for it from the boss, you can tell him I said so: it ain't your fault. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 23:13, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Rosenzweig & Company. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. Brad, you continue to add edits to the article which have the effect of inflating significance, specifically, the repeated listings of news items that may make it seem like there are more than there are, as well as subjective statement about the "widespread" nature of your company's influence, which does not appear to me to be WP:NPOV. I have asked that you be blocked as a WP:SPA editor using Wikipedia strictly to promote your employer. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:45, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

• Okay, fair enough. Well, I think I've removed most of the problematic references. Just keep in WP:PEACOCK in mind when you make qualitative statements about your company and its influence. If this article were nominated for deletion now, I would vote to keep it, so I think you've managed to successfully show its notability, imo. I guess my advice for now would be to back off, per WP:COI. Let things cool down, while keeping an eye on your article, of course. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:03, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
  • A passing reference to your client/employer in a book probably won't help you save his bio article. And frankly, I have no further interest in helping you, as you continue to want to use Wikipedia solely to promote your client/employer Rosenzweig, his wife and company in flagrant violation of WP:COI. Why on earth should I help you do that? If he is notable, then let someone else edit his article, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:59, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
    • Sorry, I've cut some things from my reply which crossed the line. But let me just say, succinctly and civilly, that I for one have no interest in helping you here so long as you remain focused on promoting this associate and his business entity. When and if you ever become interested in editing Wikipedia for its own sake, that's a different story. Good bye Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
