Let me know if you run into situations you don't understand by posting on my talk page. I may not get around to it right away, but I don't mind helping with minor biographies. --KP Botany (talk) 06:30, 23 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Post links to the articles, though, it's easier for me. --KP Botany (talk) 05:39, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to WikiProject Germany

edit
 

Welcome, Ernstblumberg, to the WikiProject Germany! Please direct any questions about the project to its talk page. If you create new articles on Germany-related topics, please list them at our announcement page and tag their talk page with our project template {{WikiProject Germany}}. A few features that you might find helpful:

  • The project's Navigation box points to most of the pages in the project that might be of use to you.
  • Most of the important discussions related to the project take place on the project's main talk page; you may find it useful to watchlist it.
  • We've developed a number of guidelines for names, titles, and other things to standardize our articles and make interlinking easier that you may find useful.

Here are some tasks you can do. Please remove completed tasks from the list.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me or any of the more experienced members of the project, and we'll be very happy to help you. Again, welcome, and thank you for joining this project!

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Beeblebrox, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Why did you do that? gordonrox24 (talk) 18:51, 16 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Look at the list of included templates (when editing your page); a How-to template is there and is likely the source of the problem. tooold (talk) 21:48, 31 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Beware of Barnstars and Editors/Admins that show them off.

edit

Barnstars. Need I say more? Many editors and administrators demonstrate exemplary talent (s) across Wikipedia...but some things in life ring warning bells. Surely accolades, be they Oscars, Nobels or otherwise are unbecoming of informational integrity? Are we to descend into the depths of 'toadying' for credibility on the basis of cartoon symbols and retain integrity? Why do some administrators/editors persistently monitor and champion subjects that they would otherwise have no connection with? Rhetoric, albeit melodramatic, can still serve to illustrate the absurd nature of the 'information industry'. Ernstblumberg (talk) 08:38, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Your edits

edit

I see you have decided to look through articles I have started and tag them. You might like to do the same with articles you have started, all of which contain unreferenced material, namely Jacob Moritz Blumberg, Hugo Perls and Arthur Pan. As you have expressed a special concern for notability, the last article certainly merits closer attention to establish it. Ty 14:47, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

The article on Fiona Banner had a small amount of questionable text and was easily fixed,[2] so there's no need to tag the whole article. That should be done when there are major problems. I'm quite happy for that text to be removed, as I didn't add it and it would only be justified if it was attributed to a referenced source. Tags look ugly, so they should be avoided for minor issues, which can be dealt with either through WP:BRD, or, if you prefer caution - which is not a bad thing - then raising them on the talk page.
Regarding Arthur Pan, I recommend finding the sources that justify notability in the first instance, before writing an article, in order to see whether it is justifiable to write it at all. His notability is certainly not axiomatic in wikipedia terms, unless he is covered in sufficient sources. Certain other painters of famous people have not been accorded articles for that reason.

I agree from the perspective of an inclusionist - especially when so many articles seem to have been written with a spurious notability in the first instance. These include some of your own (in my opinion) but I am happy to see them here as an encyclopedia with endless articles on minor league football players (not that Wikipedia descends into this category of merely cataloguing) will hardly survive the test of time. Why do you not improve the Arthur Pan article? I would welcome your insight and obvious experience regarding Art in general. Ernstblumberg (talk) 15:53, 19 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have searched online archives, including newspapers, and nothing further comes up about Pan. I suggest you contact the Federation of British Artists, in particular the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, to see if they can help. Otherwise, print sources, particularly contemporary, are the best avenue. Ty 11:10, 20 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Help neeed

edit

Hi, I saw your name at the Bio project. If you have any time could you please take a look at the article Tim Blixseth. I have made a few edits and so have two people from BLPN but there is more to do. It needs cleaning up for NPOV. There a few comments on the talk page. There is already some tension between myself and one of the main contributors to the Tim Blixseth article becase of my NPOV clean up efforts at Jeffrey M. Smith so I am reluctant to spend too much time at Tim Blisxeth. so I don't want to work much on Tim Blixseth. Please take a look at it and contribute to it if you have time.. Many thanks for all of your contributions to this project! Cheers! --KeithbobTalk 15:50, 20 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
