User talk:Jo-Jo Eumerus: Difference between revisions

Could you please help me with the reason of deleting Shikha Khanduja Kaul's wikipedia page? Shikha is a well known Indian Author and a Film Writer. She already has three books published in her and and her 1st short film as a writer was released in year 2018 which got released in several countries including India and was internationally acclaimed winning various awards. Shikha has already signed three features films with big production houses which are currently at pre-production phase and many of her other projects related to her books and movies are in pipeline. I can help you with the links for her books and movies as well as reviews. Please let me know how to fix this and if we can connect for further discussion on the same.

Greetings. As noted in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shikha Khanduja Kaul there was not enough information in reliable sources to do this. Numbers of books published and films made are not notability criteria, see WP:AUTHOR. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 16:04, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Jo-Jo,

Appreciate your quick response. I had gone through the guidelines mentioned on the page referred by you ‘Wikipedia: Author’ and would like to share some facts about Shikha with you. Shikha is considered one of the known and notable writers both in film and publishing industry. Besides her published work she has written two biographies (Sarvjeet Singh Bedi- a famous controversial case and Muskaan Sethi- Indian’s first professional Poker player) and two biopics (Alisha Abdulla- India’s first female Racer and Rakesh Malik- the first Indian to have been granted absolute Pardon under Article 161), which are in the process of adaptation for both digital and theatrical releases with well-known production houses. Shikha’s Wikipedia page was created by a member from her admin team and was currently managed by me. I was not at all aware about the deletion of the page, as soon as I realized, I contacted you. I would like to seek your advice on the possibility of restoration of her page (if any) or if you could provide any guidance on the same.

Well, the problem is that it doesn't matter what she herself has written; we primarily care about what people unaffiliated with her have written about her. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 14:05, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jo-Jo,

I understand your point, and would like to share one article with you posted on Shikha's upcoming project Muskan Sethi.. 'The Biograpahy of Poker Star: Exclusive Details on Muskan Sethi's Upcoming Book. Here is the link: This is just one of the project that is already on news. https://pokerguru.co.in/poker-news/muskan-sethi-shikha-kaul-pokerstars-team-pro-biography.

Please post your replies in this section without creating a new one every time. That source does not look reliable to me but I am no great expert on that stuff; @Usedtobecool, Meeanaya, Harshil169, Agricola44, Johnpacklambert, Bearian, and Lekkala R Reddy:?

Sorry, I shall reply to this post only going forward. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.177.184.50 (talk) 15:46, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt the poker site is a reliable source, and that particular article is a fluff piece which ends with an unprofessional "... we wish Muskan and Shikha all the best for the same!" It could be used to fill in the details after the fact, but I wouldn't consider it acceptable to actually establish notability. I can't see detailed info on the deleted article anymore, but I don't remember either of the two SPAs mentioned on the deletion discussion as being disclosed paid editors. I guess, a paid editor could always come forward with necessary disclosures and try and recreate the article through AfC, assuming they have more/better sources than used in the article that was deleted. The sources in the deleted version weren't at all acceptable for GNG purposes. The only plausible claim of RS coverage was the Times of India connection, which couldn't be verified through the article, nor from an independent search as I noted at AfD. The next recourse would be to try and show that she meets WP:CREATIVE; either of the awards from Haryana Film Festival or the online magazine, are not enough for that purpose. We need better claims to notability, and they need to be supported by better, meaning reliable, sources. If she meets our notability criteria, there should be at least some coverage of her on indisputably reliable sources, which has yet to be shown to be the case. Regards!

Kevin Strohschein AfD

Hey, Jo-Jo! You closed this AfD as delete a few days ago. I've been busy in real life lately and just noticed it otherwise I'd have spoken up earlier. Strohschein was an NCAA Division I college baseball First Team All-American in 2018 (see here) and meets WP:NCOLLATH #1 as having won a major national-level award, an argument that was ignored by the delete voters who focused exclusively on the professional WP:NBASEBALL. Given that, I think this AfD would be worth a relist to bring that point forward before the discussion is closed. Thanks!!! Ejgreen77 (talk) 10:29, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ostealthy, WilliamJE, and TheSandDoctor: Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 14:32, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the ping, Jo-Jo Eumerus. I am not at all knowledgeable about baseball. My comment on the AfD was to the (seemingly) unfortunate timing as it appears (from my view) likely that if notability is not in place currently, NBASEBALL would presumably be met soon & suggested draftifying. When it comes to this new evidence brought forward, it looks good to me. But the major award bit...I am not sure. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 00:55, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Image question

Hi Jo-Jo. I'm working on the Ghostbusters II article and I'm struggling for relevant images as it's not quite as popular as its predecessor. I was wondering if I could get your advice on me uploading and using any of these if you have time. They all have non-commercial re-use, I can't remember if ours have to be commercial re-use or not.

Greetings. I think that these are all equivalent to https://www.flickr.com/photos/laughingsquid/5430781781 but I think they might violate WP:FREER if used even as fair use. In addition I doubt that they'd comply with WP:NFCC#8 if used in the article. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:09, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean there might be a free alternative? There is a section dedicated to discussing the character design so I thought that might satisfy Number 8 as it is more a discussion of the composition of the image and the methods used to get the character out of the painting.

No, I was thinking that there are two copyrights involved in that file, the first by the Flickr account and the second in the poster. Now thinking perhaps the last file would only have a poster copyright per {{PD-Art}} but I am not sure. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:36, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

But it will include changes happening on Project talk: or the Wikipedia talk:. [4]

Changes later this week

The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 3 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 4 September. It will be on all wikis from 5 September (calendar).
When you log in, the software checks your password to see if it follows the Password policy. From this week, it will also complain if your password is one of the most common passwords in the world.

My article was deleted

Hello, my name is Jennifer Hardy, my page was deleted today. I have tried to talk with others about my page being deleted but I'm new to Wikipedia, and also I have a disability which makes it difficult to understand things, Wikipedia is harder to understand unlike a chat or email because theres back coding.

I believe my page deserves not to be deleted because the movie I was the lead in, "Spice It Up", has a wikipedia page on here as well. "The Intestine" page has my name on it too as a principal role. As the lead for the film I think if the film I starred in has a page than so should the lead. I have tried my best to follow the guidelines but it is hard to understand for me what people were talking about.

I've replied some of the people and have shown extra links/sources that I did not add in the page but haven't received a reply from them. I will do whatever I can to fix my page. Aalamina (talk) 22:52, 5 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings, Aalamina. There was a discussion before deletion on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jennifer Hardy CK; the problem is that under the pertinent guideline starring in one film is not enough to establish notability. I dunno about these extra links/sources. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:12, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Okay Jo-Jo Eumerus , I wasn't sure where & how to communicate since I'm new in Wiki. Do 2 of my aninated films still not count for my wikipedia page? There were some articles in the past but some are not there anymore because they're old since 2008. I wasn't sure if this link could be used for wikipedia: https://ilivewithadisability.com/wsim-what-suffered-inside-me/ There was also a short interview about my 2nd animated film on RogersTV Durham Now (1:32-2:21) https://www.rogerstv.com/media?lid=237&rid=2&gid=259152 Aalamina (talk)

I don't think either adds to notability; the first looks like it's not independent and the second has the same issue. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 18:45, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Aalamina: As you are Jennifer Hardy you should not try to create an article about yourself. See WP:AUTOBIOGRAPHY. Please wait for some other editor to believe that you are "notable" enough, in Wikipedia's terms, for an article. Thanks. PamD 23:07, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@PamD: Hi there, there's 2 of us, Jennifer Hardy & I'm her helper trying this out. I'm new too using Wikipedia so we worked together after she had trouble understanding Wikipedia for a long time and she tried to learn how to use it in the sandbox in the past. I edited 10 other people's articles a month ago to be able to publish the Jennifer Hardy CK article and I helped putting things together. But if we have to have a different editor then we'll try and do that next time in the future. Aalamina (talk)
