WP:NAUTHOR #3 pass, co-author of a book with a Wikipedia article: Finding Freedom –Novem Linguae (talk) 12:26, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
BLP padding
There'san article for his book, so we don't need information about second editions here. There's nothing in the source that says he lives in North London (it's talking about the interviewers home). The name of his dog is in no way noteworthy for this article. None of this should be restored.Unbh (talk) 04:55, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- The text removed said "As of 2021, Scobie was living in east London with French bulldog Yoshi." The source (footnote 3, Tatler interview) said: "He lives in a ‘not groovy’ part of east London...." So the text is definitely sourced. When Unbh started deleting text from this article there was one (not "lots") unsourced statement - birthplace of Wales which is hardly controversial and is now sourced. There was also one error - north instead of east London - which could have been easily corrected by anyone who spotted it. In fact I corrected it before restoring the text for the firt time but evidently Unbh did not notice. Please do not remove text from this article. It is a short article with everything sourced and uncontroversial. There is a small degree of overlap with the Finding Freedom article which is reasonable when two or more articles discuss the same event - in this case the publication of a book. Something is not irrelevant to an article just because it appears elsewhere. If large chunks of the Finding Freedom article had been copied into this article it might be questionable, but that is not the case. Southdevonian (talk) 08:27, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- It is quite okay to have some overlap in articles about author and works, especially about publication history. After all, not everyone will read both articles (witness the pageviews of the two articles). Southdevonian (talk) 13:29, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Some overlap is inevitable with articles about, for examples, writers and their work, films and actors/directors, sporting events and sporting figures, political events, etc. etc. It is not a question of "don't mention the book"! There are no rules saying that a piece of information must be restricted to one single article. Southdevonian (talk) 08:33, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
- The relevance of the new edition: it shows he is still concentrating on the same subject. Southdevonian (talk) 17:12, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
