Notability

edit

To explain the tag, I went through all the references used in the article (including properly removing external links from the main article space and making them references for the sites' existence). While I did date some of the references, which were still up, some were down and I linked to some Wayback Machine pages. In some cases though, for pages that were down, there was no archive, so I fact-tagged them. Without having a copy to consult we can't verify what the references were supposed to claim.

Also questioning the overall notability of the inclusion of many of the references and websites here. What secondary source has established that her blog is important? That a Flickr group is important? Many of the references linked are simply to other people's blogs, and don't stand out as reliable news sources or scholars.

Hey, an update to say I've now added a book reference (published by Routledge) as well as a WNYC reference--between those and NPR, Fox, Q on CBC, etc., over the span of years, I think reliable sourcing for notability is pretty solid, so I'm removing the tag.

Jamie KeilesJamie Lauren Keiles – This is the name they use professionally publish all writing under, as seen in the links below. Sheepshapes (talk) 22:10, 18 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • Support per nomination and per provided links which confirm that, although this Wikipedia entry was created nearly ten years ago, in April 2011, as "Jamie Keiles", subject's professional name as well as WP:COMMONNAME is indeed the full form, Jamie Lauren Keiles. On a related point regarding pronouns, it should be noted that Wikipedia:Manual of Style does state at MOS:IDENTITY that, "When there is a discrepancy between the term most commonly used by reliable sources for a person or group and the term that person or group uses for themselves, use the term that is most commonly used by recent reliable sources. If it is unclear which is most used, use the term that the person or group uses." Thus, it is unclear whether there would be consensus for today's unilateral replacement within this Wikipedia article of pronouns "she" and "her" with "they" and "their". Such changes may require a separate discussion on this talk page. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 03:22, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Pronoun "they"

edit

The bio uses "they" instead of "her" or "she" whenever Keiles is referenced, but there is no information in the article that Keiles is a trans woman. The bio should include this detail about a subject's personal life. Wikipedia is written for the general public -- not the cognoscenti. Pyxis Solitary (yak). L not Q. 23:08, 25 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
