Mirrors
edit Thanks for contributing to the article Draft:Seldon Charles Forrester Farmer. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

- Again, please stop using the 'en-academic.com' to support your article. This is a clearly-identified mirror and cannot be used as a source. Sam Kuru (talk) 11:59, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks for identifying the offending article. Many of the features of Wikipedia make cross referencing 'easy', it is hard to distinguish which are acceptable and which are not. The source of this information was the 2007 Centenary of Probation which is no longer available online. I have physical print outs of those pages but given that the internet archive failed to capture them completely it is hard to reference that information adequately.

Hi I have updated the page as suggested including adding more references and removing the elements from his Eulogy. Hopefully it now reflects the requirements of Wikipedia, many thanks

- Thank you for reviewing this article and providing your feedback. S C F Farmer was awarded an OBE for his service, wrote peer reviewed articles that are still being cited 70 years later and was internationally respected in his field. I am puzzled as to why he does not qualify? There are many examples of music personalities who get a category to themselves in the metadata, where as entire categories of social sciences are missing. I appreciate that many references are offline chapters in books or paywalled, but this is the case with many professions.
- I would be grateful for advice as to why this is still declined... and how I can improve the chances of acceptance. 27 years leading probation in this country and advising around the world is fairly significant, enough to be recognised by his own profession in their centenary celebrations in 2007. However online references are challenging to identify, wikis can redress some of that balance, for people whose lives were largely pre-digital era and/or limited about what could be spoken about during their lifetimes. This can help people towards their research and highlight the contribution of public servants from a time when personal notoriety was not sought and references to them were often by role rather than name.
- Thanks once again for helping to improve Wikipedia. Zaccwm (talk) 10:05, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

Terry Moores moved to draftspace
editThanks for your contributions to Terry Moores. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it is promotional and reads like an advertisement. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 14:17, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
