Proposed deletion of Cuban Artist: Maria Emilia Castagliola

The article Cuban Artist: Maria Emilia Castagliola has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This is a talk page and does nothing to teach me about the artist

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.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I reverted your edit because you blanked a page authored by a different user. Generally, I'd suggest that if you believe that a redirect target is incorrect, please correct it or nominate the page for deletion rather than blanking the page. However, upon further investigation, I see that there is a requested move discussion about the subject; I've voted in support of the move which will address the redirect when the discussion concludes. ——Ost (talk) 04:27, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

BLP violation

In this edit you cited the subject's linkedin page to replace an interview with the subject (don't get me started on that!) but the linkedin page doesn't contain any information about his date of birth or how many brothers he has. If you haven't already, I would strongly suggest you read WP:BLP and consider the implications of adding poorly sourced information about living people to the project. As my other edits to that article show, the article is a complete mess and every source that I have checked does not contain the information that it is supposed to. Consequently I will again be moving it out of article space back to the student's userspace until it is compliant with WP:BLP. SmartSE (talk) 14:58, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Is it really necessary to be rude and snarky? If you would have read closely, instead of constantly tossing the article back into the draftspace without making any constructive comments whatsoever, then you would have noticed that I cited specific schools and dates of attendance for this figure, and indeed removed the interview which is in violation of Wikipedia standards for sources. I also added the government source (Bureau of Indian Affairs) which states the subject's election date. So your claim that, "every source that I have checked does not contain the information that it is supposed to" is utterly false. Go find someone else to harass. My class and this student are attempting to improve Wikipedia's serious omission of Native American and First Nations subjects. Nstrathman (talk) 18:54, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
