Status and Advice edit

As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article as a copy of his web site. We can not use it here without a full free license under the formalities of WP:DCM, which irrevocably permits anyone in the world for using , modify, and distributing it for any purpose, even commercial. But that is not advised, for material on a website is usually written in a promotional manner, and is generally not suitable for an encyclopedia. That was the case here: the material on his books was promational rather than informative. He is notable, so it is probably worth trying over.
If you have a WP:Conflict of interest, the only really acceptable way to do this is to use WP:Articles for Creation. You also need to declare your conflict of interest on your user page, see our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure DGG ( talk ) 05:35, 14 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

April 2015 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Parametricism, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

The parametricism article doesn't need just tinkering--it needs rewriting in a NPOV style, as if you were someone not in any manner connected with the theory. Try to write it telling a reader not particular co involved in architecture what it is about, with references to standard secondary works if possible, not just the primary articles proposing the theory by its supporters. It reads too much like advocacy, and we don't do that here. I'm holding off on sending it to afd for a few days to give you a chance at it, but anyone else might do so at any time.

Hello DGG. Several Wikipedia editors have commented on this entry. I revised it NUMEROUS times to satisfy the criteria of objectivity and the article is now reflective of the subject AS IT IS ACCEPTED BY THE ARCHITECURAL COMMUNITY. This is not an opinion piece, it is a description of a new style of architecture that is very much in the process of establishing a global presence. The citations are entirely informative and appropriate for this article. The other Wikipedia editors have removed their tags after this article was revised, apparently satisfied that the criteria has been met. After reading Wikipedia's policies, I must say that there has been thus far no attempt by any of the editors to follow through with the policy of non-intimidation of new contributors. I have responded responsibly to all criticism and have worked on this article extensively since it was posted, but it seems that new editors will continue to tag the article without reviewing the revision history, which explicitly documents how similar criticisms were addressed to the satisfaction of other editors. The portion of the article that you refer to as an outline is in fact an enumeration of core principles. There are MANY precedents for this type of entry, including charts, lists, etc. In the context of the article, this is not an outline, but rather a LIST OF PRINICPLES. I am not sure why it does not meet Wikipedia's criteria, seeing as how there are lists included in other articles! I appreciate the editorial vigilance of Wikipedia, but it seems like a never-ending process of critique by uncoordinated editor comments, revisiting the same issues over and over again - even after they were remedied - with absolutely no continuity or real attempt to communicate in manner that is constructive to the contribution. - Daniela Gh (talk) 22:35, 29 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

REPLY TO DGG FROM THE MAIN WRITER/CONTRIBUTOR OF THIS ARTICLE: Please review the Talk tab of the Parametricism page. Note that the article was flagged as follows: "This article is within the scope of WikiProject Architecture, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of Architecture on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks." It is imperative to involve this group in the discussion, since it is a group comprised of experts in the field of architecture, who can substantiate that (1) Parametricism should be included in Wikipedia and (2) other than your request for a revision of what you call the "outline" (which in fact is a list of heuristic principles, and no different than other lists included in other Wikipedia arcitlces), this is in fact a factual article about a highly visible and widespread style of contemporary architecture. As a new contributor, I would like to add that this article was reviewed by several Wikipedia editors who requested changes that were made, to their satisfaction.
