Janet Biggs

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Janet Biggs, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.jbiggs.com/bio.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 22:45, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Janet Biggs

A tag has been placed on Janet Biggs requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi, thank you for adding references. Please would you answer the question about whether you have a conflict of interest regarding Janet Biggs? Thank you. Tacyarg (talk) 21:30, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Good morning! Yes, I'm Janet Biggs' husband. I occasionally edit her page to do updates based on reliably sourced, published materials. Rcmar (talk) 13:38, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

I'm reviewing the Wiki recommendations for conflict of interest. I will add a "connected contributor" box to the page, indicating my relationship to the subject. Thanks again. Rcmar (talk) 14:16, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for replying. Please don't edit the article about your wife directly; you can request changes on the article's Talk page. Tacyarg (talk) 20:20, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Janet Biggs has had about a dozen art exhibits in past several years, none are on here. There are also several dozen major recent articles and publications that reference her work that aren't listed. Should I post all the material here on "talk"? If so, who edits the page? What's the timing? Rcmar (talk) 21:26, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes, if there's missing information, if you use the request edit function and specify the changes you want made and the source information, uninvolved editors who follow requested edits will see them. No specific timescale, as far as I know. The WP:TEAHOUSE can probably advise you further. Tacyarg (talk) 21:48, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
