[edit]

This article was created by a paid editor, but there's no paid editor declaration on this page. Why not, Janweh64? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:51, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hahaha! You just linked to my declaration.  —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 00:03, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple issues?

[edit]

@Justlettersandnumbers: With this edit, you have added several warnings to this article with no explaination of the particular problems. Please list them here or anyone may remove said tags.  —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 01:02, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The page has numerous errors of grammar and/or spelling ("he found to be much more attune to his style", "Reitz began exploring other form of pottery", "at his residence Clarkdale, Arizona", "as a collaboration with several artist") and fact or basic understanding ("he was given emeritus status at the University of Wisconsin" (no, he retired), "he studied painting in the abstract expressionism movement" (nonsense), "it retained the marks made by the artist's hands" (nothing like what the source says)). It needs to be copy-edited by someone with a good knowledge of English, preferably a member of the WP:Guild of copy-editors, and also by someone with some expert knowledge of pottery.

Thank you. I believe I have addressed the spelling and grammar issues. At least to the best of my abilities as someone who does not possess "a good knowledge of English." —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 23:10, 19 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the tags. It looks like the copyediting request was fulfilled, paid editing is clearly disclosed and is not necessarily the same as COI. There were never any specifics associated with the disputed claim as far as I can tell. ~Kvng (talk) 23:12, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
