Help with page move?

Hi again Melcous. I noticed that you have the page mover right; might you be willing to move Neville Lancelot Goddard to Neville Goddard per WP:COMMONNAME? I'd like to do it myself but it's obstructed by the target article being a redirect. He is not commonly referred to with his middle name included. Feel free to examine the article's sources to verify for yourself. Thanks. Left guide (talk) 09:21, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Left guide, I'm quite new to page mover rights, so this was my first round robin move. Hopefully it was all done ok - let me know if you think I've missed anything? Melcous (talk) 11:42, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It looks perfect, thank you so much for helping! :) Left guide (talk) 11:44, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, hope you're well?

I disagree with the notion that the information you keep removing is not notable, the boat race is a televised national event therefore the names of participants who went to University College is notable information for an encyclopaedia.

Furthermore I do not understand the continued removal especially when many other Oxford College Boat Clubs have had this information on their pages for many years. Any further information you could share would be much appreciated, thank you! OxfordRowing (talk) 14:39, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@OxfordRowing: thanks for discussing this, but the place to do so is on the article talk page, particularly as I am not the only editor who has disagreed with the inclusion of this content. Consensus needs to be sought before it could be put into the article again. But to your questions here briefly, the boat race being nationally televised might be a good argument for why the race is notable, but has nothing to do with whether it is ok to list non-notable participants. Also see WP:OSE which is always an argument to avoid. Thank you Melcous (talk) 22:32, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I noticed that you placed a template on the article indicating several issues, and I would appreciate some help and clarification.

I didn't understand why the article was marked as "written like a resume" – isn't this the typical style for biographical entries?

Regarding the "notability guideline" – a notability discussion was held on the Hebrew Wikipedia, and many editors argued that the subject is notable enough. Isn't this sufficient to justify translating the article into English?

I would appreciate guidance on how to improve the article. I saw that you have created quite a few biographies on Wikipedia, and I would love your help to advance in this area :)

Thank you,
