I NEED HELP WITH THE ARTICLE: Marie-Jo THIEL — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mic EROHUBIE (talk • contribs) 12:51, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly do you need help with? Saying "I NEED HELP" is not a very helpful way to ask. Have you noticed, looking at the page, how incredibly cluttered all the text is? Did you just copy-paste it from somewhere and not bother trying to fix the formatting to make it appear correctly on Wikipedia. From what I can tell, you have a broken WP:Infobox (the text box at right of a bio that has basic statistics of a person), and also some of your text appears in a gray box that stretches way across the screen; that problem appears because you're leaving blank space at the start of a line, so do not indent paragraphs on Wikipedia.

you are right mathew, i wrote the article in word, then copied and pasted it.I have being reading a lot of things on how to properly format an article specifically for Wikipeadia. there seems to me to be too much information...Is there a template somewhere that i can use to get this article correctly formatted? Mic EROHUBIE — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mic EROHUBIE (talk • contribs) 15:49, 27 December 2013 (UTC) Thanks a lot Mathew, I have tried working on the article (Marie-Jo THIEL) following your advice and I like the improvements that I see. However, I still need help with inserting the references. My word skills didn't help me much here. --Mic EROHUBIE (talk) 14:21, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Saccharo Wine

Mr. Vanitas,

I changed my submission for Saccharo Wine to reflect a more neutral point of view. I am not the creator of the wine, however I am an owner of a winery that makes it. Currently there is no federal accepted name for this type of wine. It is classified under "other wine".

Basi, and Kilju if offered for legal sale in the United States would also fall under the classification of "other wine". However even "other wine" according to federal law, must have a name that accurately reflects the nature of the wine. Saccharo is the latin word for "from Sugar". Like Basi, that is fermented in clay jars, and Kilju that is made from any type of sugar product, Saccharo uses only cane sugar of at least 50% then blends other natural agricultural products other than grapes to account for other sugars. Traditional wine making techniques to ferment the cane sugar base to 12%, as well as traditional racking and aging practices are also used.

Saccharo Wine is currently not for sale in the United States. It is a real wine, that is currently being classified by the federal govt.

It will be for legal sale in Nov 2014.

The V-50 Lectures - Article Rejected

Matthew Vanitas,

Thanks for the fast reply and the feedback re: John Pugsley' article "This Is the Way to the Stars" as an example of a reliable source. Of course, I'll reference that article as well as a book by noted Libertarian writer Brian Doherty called "Radicals for Capitalism; A Freewheelin History of the Modern American Libertarian Movement," pgs 323 to 326, which talks about the V-50 Lectures.

Although The V-50 Lectures profoundly affected thousands of people's lives there is, unfortunately, very little written about them. This is what I'm trying to fix by creating this Wikipedia article. The people who attended these lectures are getting old and dying off and this valuable and interesting movement within the American Libertarian movement shouldn't be lost.

Jay Snelson (who is the Creator of The V-50 Lectures) wrote a book just before he died called "Taming the Violence of Faith" which is for sale on Amazon -- I can reference that, as well.

Do you think that will be adequate?

ch — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chasholloway (talk • contribs) 19:08, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Chasholloway, fundamentally as long as you can show WP:Reliable, WP:Secondary coverage of the event and its impact, we can have an article. So we don't need things written by the lecturer (except to what limited degree we can briefly cite his mission statement or later musings about it). Primarily what we need is other academic authorities saying something along the lines of "hey, those V50 lectures were really important, and here's why..." The more neutral and authoritative the later commentator the better, the article has to be through "outside eyes".

One thing I really want to emphasize, the issue unfortunately, very little written about them is absolutely not an encyclopedia issue. That issue is a pressing one for WP:Primary researchers like journalists and academic researchers. An encyclopedia cannot accept WP:Original research, like "Chas tracks down an attendee and asks for their recollections." Such an interview, however, would be great if someone makes the intereview, and gets an article published in the National Review of "V50 Hits Home: We Interview Four Men Whose Lives Were Changed". We can't cite a raw interview since it isn't yet peer reviewed and endorsed by an authoritative knowledge broker, but if it gets published in the professional realm we can cite it, does that make sense? So when people complain that Wikipedia is stifling them by not accepting their personal awesome knowledge of rural Rajasthani cuisine, and it "must go on Wikipedia because it is not recorded on the internet", our answer is hey, don't hassle us, get a real anthropologist out there so a real pro can observe and record this culture!

I'm on and off of reviewing, so don't wait on my or anything. Just find as many WP:Secondary sources as you can that verify the basic facts and give evidence of how significant the event is seen as, and then hit Resubmit. MatthewVanitas (talk) 20:08, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

HILTON - Auto Designer article - Thanks!!

Hi Matt,

Thanks so much for the great tips! I will make this short and sweet for you: I plan on doing several articles on Car Designers, and this is my first. So thanks :-). I have made and saved all your suggested changes. How do I resubmit to you or anyone else for approval?? Comments: - I cannot find anything online for the birth date of Hilton, what should I do? - I have received permission to use 4 previously publicized original photos from Motorcity Europe. How should I 'prove' this for use here?? - How do I upload the approved photos? According to HELP, I first need to have the article approved, then I can upload photos?

Thanks again so much. next time will be smoother! I will implement any further suggestions asap. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/David_Hilton_-_Auto_Designer&oldid=588876817

Jim Stacy page you declined

I must say your response was beyond harsh. It sucks that I was trying to do a good thing for a man that deserves recognition for his contribution. I am not a part of the website where i found the info. It was just the only information I could find in my limited ability. How you found it necessary and acceptable to demean me is beyond me. I am not a writer, I found that information and thought it would be useful and it should be in a place known for information. Sorry you were pained with having read it. This may work in your field when dealing with the public but I refuse to treat people the way you have. Especially people trying to do something good for no reason other than it is right.

Discouraged and disappointed,

.. MY DARLING RECORDS Wiki label page

Well I honestly don't know what your talking about for media I thought NPR, MUSIC SITES, NEWSPAPER AND BLOGS were valid. I'll have to check again. Thanks for your help!

I'm opening up your links, hitting Ctrl-F to search for the word "Darling" and finding nothing. It's not my job to try to guess how some link shows this label to be famous, it's up to you to make it clear. A good way is to WP:Footnote your sources to the specific facts they prove. The article SLU grad to release album with Blueberry Hill Records literally says nothing substantive about the label: it just mentions one guy whose album is on the label, and mentions that it exists, is independent, and is in Salem, and that's just the earlier form of the label, not even the article title term. Similarly, the Deli Magazine article doesn't even mention Darling. A "reference" is not some passing mention of a band which happens to be on a label (which isn't even mentioned by name). For WP:Notability we need to see people actually discussing Darling records, like some Portland Times article saying "Salem Indie Label Grows by Leaps and Bounds" or an article in Music Today that lists out to Pacific Northwest indie labels and spends a good paragraph or more discussing how Darling has impacted the scene. Also note WP:Notability is not inherited; it doesn't matter if Darling is somehow linked to the biggest band out there, if no journalist/academic has bothered to say "hey, you know what really got John Smith's career going, his early recordings with Darling", then it's not admissible.

By the way, it's not helpful to copy and paste a whole new draft onto the page; it confuses reviewers because it's not clear what draft you want us to read. Only have one version on the page at a time, use the "History" tab to go "back in time" through drafts if you somehow lose something. Also, remember all the reviewers are volunteers, so mind what you write so it doesn't come across as hostile, because nobody's going to want to help out if you're accusing people. You really want to carefully read WP:Notability and make sure your article actually hits those requirements. MatthewVanitas (talk) 21:16, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

MDR References

Okay Thanks Matthew. MDR does have some reputable sources I should of gotten them from the label itself since I just do A&R work however was really just trying to help out. I'll contact them and see what they have in regards to references..Also I've never done this before so that's why I accidentally posted twice.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.48.146.92 (talk) 21:50, 7 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
