Unused Sources

Following on from last week's POV tagging, I've taken some time today to look for more sources. I've found some, but don't have time to read them carefully enough and add them to the article now. If someone has time before I return at the weekend, maybe they can add the relevant content. Be careful as some of them may not be reliable (I seem to remember the group to which OK! belongs is only valid for it's more specialist magazines, and as such both it and the Daily Express may not pass WP:RS) and I think using anything from the fourth one without a second like-minded opinion might violate the WP:BLP policy. Aslo, some of these seem to be about the show rather than her and are probably better used to expand the relavant series article, whilst others may be written by her. These seem to be the best results from a basic google search, it may be worth doing a Scholar search, but a news search would probably only come up with those listed pages which are from newspapers whilst I did manage to find what appears to be her offical facebook account via an image search: http://www.facebook.com/people/Sarah-Willingham/687472524

Background

edit

This is supposed to be a biographical entry. However, it makes no mention of background, childhood, upbringing, education, family, employment history. It currently reads as a thinly disguised advertisement for her current business enterprises. Articles such as this do not help Wikipedia's attempt to be taken seriously as an encyclopaedia, although in some areas it does contain basic, good quality information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.151.175.61 (talk) 19:11, 2 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

It seems to me that all the updates required to comply with Wiki good practice have now been complied with in terms of childhood, upbringing, education etc. Having analysed the page it seems to me that it is now a fair reflection in terms of background and achievements.

Needs Update

edit

Bombay Bicycle Club were disposed of by Clapham House on 17 July 2008 to Gourmet Restaurants Limited (a.k.a. Tiffin Bites) [1]

Tootsies were placed in to administration on 12 October 2009 [2]

All of these events above took place after Sarah Willingham left the board [3] and therefore seem irrelevant

Transparent use of Wikpedia for self-promotion

Clearly as stated. Little of encyclopaedic relevance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.159.108.14 (talk) 15:27, 13 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Please point out areas of self-promotion?

This is simply PR written by the subjects PR people — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.9.32.22 (talk) 16:09, 25 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
