Speedy deletion nomination of Film fatales
editIf 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 Film fatales requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.filmfatalesnyc.com/#!about---quotes/c1o06. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —Largo Plazo (talk) 03:23, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Alliance of Women Directors
editIf 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 Alliance of Women Directors 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 an organization or company, 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. reddogsix (talk) 05:43, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- I've removed the speedy deletion tag, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to take this to a full deletion debate here, as I'm not sure how to make the article stick. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:29, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
OK, but here's a question, how do I get help making the page stick? There's no way this organization is less relevant or important than other things on wiki. But possible it is less mentioned on line. So how to solve? The problem is it's very clearly a value judgement. And I think removing the 150 women member's names makes it harder to illustrate the relevance. User:jjenred5
- I am trying to help get your article "stick". What it needs are references in third-party published reliable sources that are not connected to the alliance, like newspapers or magazines. Blogs are not at all useful, as they are considered unreliable and can't be used except in exceptional circumstances. Can you find any newspaper or magazine articles about the alliance? All good wishes Theroadislong (talk) 20:44, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
I know. I appreciate it. That's the trouble though. It's a niche organization but doing big things. And it's not been covered. It's many members have though. If the members list were permitted I could link tons of news articles about each of them.
There's also these that I think show relevence... http://www.networkisa.org/podcast.php?id=2466 http://blogs.indiewire.com/womenandhollywood/dga-study-women-and-minority-directors-face-significant-hiring-disadvantage-at-entry-level-20150109 How to Hire a Woman Director http://blogs.indiewire.com/womenandhollywood/guest-post-how-to-hire-a-woman-director-20150225 Study on Women in Film Confirms the Worst http://www.indiewire.com/article/sorry-ladies-study-on-women-in-film-and-television-confirms-the-worst-20150210 Women Directed Top Films http://blogs.indiewire.com/womenandhollywood/women-directed-17-of-the-top-250-grossing-films-of-2014-20150108 Jjenred5 (talk) 21:03, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- The fact that it has notable members doesn't make the Alliance itself notable in Wikipedia terms. Wikipedia only reports on what the reliable sources say about a given subject and if it hasn't been reported on, then Wikipedia doesn't consider it notable enough for an article and I'm afraid your blog links are not useable as I have said before.Theroadislong (talk) 21:25, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
I understand that. But that is inherently problematic for outside groups. Please note wiki finds "farts", "muffin tops", "basic bitches" and a game from 1980 called Skull and crossbones important and relevant.Jjenred5 (talk) 21:45, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- It's not that Wikipedia finds them important or relevant it's because those subjects have been widely covered in reliable sources and please see Wikipedia:Other stuff exists it's not an argument that elicits any sympathy I'm afraid. Keep looking for magazine or newspaper articles they don't have to be on line. Cheers Theroadislong (talk) 21:53, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- You have been given lots of excellent advice from very well respected editors at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions. Good luck with your quest. Theroadislong (talk) 22:31, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
I've dropped a note on the AfD explaining my position in some depth, and I agree the advice you have received at the Teahouse is good. Lots more eyes are looking that the article, so it's got a stronger chance of having a positive result. On that, if there's no general agreement on what to do about the article (and from my view it seems to be heading that way), the result will be "No consensus", which defaults to the article being kept. This is what happened at Sonia Poulton, an article which I improved to the point of being kept via this method, despite a significant number of editors preferring to nuke it into obliteration.

Managing a conflict of interest
editHello, Jjenred5. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Alliance of Women Directors, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies. Note that Wikipedia's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 15:05, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
A barnstar for you!
editThe Civility Barnstar | |
Thank you! I was really impressed by the constructive and non-acrimonious tone and contributions from everyone involved in the recent AFD discussion on the Alliance of Women Directors article. What could have been—with the wrong editors involved—a very nasty debate, turned into a very positive discussion. Even editors who strongly felt that the article should be deleted worked hard to find sources and fix problems with it. This is the kind of positive collaboration people don't hear a lot about in Wikipedia-land and I'd like to recognize it. Carl Henderson (talk) 19:52, 3 April 2015 (UTC) |

IMDb cannot be used as reference in articles
editHi Jjenred5
Earlier today I went through and removed all the imdb references that you added to the article Vanessa Parise. On each edit summary I gave the reasoning which is that a reference cited to IMDb is considered unreliable. I see that you have gone back and re-added at least two IMDB back to the article. Please go back and remove those. All the awards in that section need to have references to reliable websites. If not, I or another editor will remove the awards for having no references. Thank you. If you have any questions please ask. Happy editing! Antonioatrylia (talk) 05:57, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
