FAC candidates[edit]

Most of 'em need a root-and-branch rewrite first, though. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 17:38, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review question[edit]

Hi! I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing a piece for the signpost and came across this 2016 AFD for Margaret Nichols which you closed as delete. I believe there were a few issues with it (not your role in it) which I think merit a review by yourself and/or other admins.

  • The article was previously nominated at AFD in 2011 by User:James Cantor, whose colleagues had been criticized by Nichols in the past. There was no other support for a delete with multiple editors thinking it passed GNG and it was categorized as a USA, Sex and Gender, behavioral science, and author - related discussion.
  • The 2016 AFD was created by a sock of Cantor (discovered in 2021), was only listed under academic-related discussions, and apart from himself only received two supports.

I'm unsure if the article did pass GNG (I can't see the history) so would like your opinion on 1) whether it might have been deleted unduly and 2) what to do in that case (would you undelete it, draftify it, take it to DRV, etc).

Greetings. I don't remember if back in the day I would consider 3 or 4 delete !votes (i.e if we treat Cantor and their sock as one account) as sufficient for a deletion. The sources are her own profile and articles that quote her without delving too deep in her as a person. The deletion was 8 years ago and 3-4 delete arguments is a low number. Are there more recent sources, say biographies about her or things that discuss her in some detail? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:05, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think so, I'm not so used to writing articles on academics so I'm not sure whether the comments in the original AFD about passing WP:NPROF held (and whether the article met criteria during the first AFD and was edited so it no longer did during the second).
  • She's given TEDX talks and presented at conferences in the last few years[1][2]
  • She's seems to have hundreds of citations from a check of google scholar
  • This source says By far, the pioneer in this field [lesbian sex therapy] is Margaret Nichols, who has been writing about the subject since the 1980s. but I'm struggling to gain access to the rest of the text. [3]
  • This one on p 27 says that in the 90s and early 2000s Nichols "developed proposals of more queer approaches in sex therapy" and discusses their POV in relation to mainstream sex therapy. [4]
  • This source puts her book in a recommended reading section and describes her as a key pioneer working with LGBTQ+ clients with over 40 years of experience. Her book embraces current thinking on working with a wide range of clients [5][6]
  • This goes into her views on sadomasochism[7]
  • This discusses the politicization of AIDS, quotes Nichols, and notes she's the director of the Hyacinth Foundation, which was contracted to provide AIDS relief in New Jersey.[8]
I don't have time for more research tonight, but AFAICT she's incredibly highly cited when it comes to sex therapy, particularly for lesbian couples, and has been for decades. Your Friendly Neighborhood Sociologist ⚧ Ⓐ (talk) 22:21, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion[edit]

Hi Jo-Jo, hope all’s well. Could you possibly take a look at the Holden Commodore (VE) article to see which sources you’d consider unreliable and reliable? Since late last year i’ve been think of bringing back this article to FA status (it’s a former FA) but still am not sure about the sourcing. Best, 750h+ 15:35, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. I don't do source reviews outside of FAC, usually, but if it matters, here's a few sources that make me wonder "what makes this a high-quality reliable source?"

Other sources didn't give much indication, but may need closer checking. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 08:15, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
