While [[Wikipedia:Layout#Works]] says to include all works "created", it doesn't seem to follow with a number of articles, as Hullaballoo notes above. I'm also not sure since the only source seems to be the ISBN numbers as to the books themselves, a primary source rather than a secondary one (but probably the best thing available). While the general notability standards aren't relevant, I'm a little concerned when books like the Underground guide (with [http://www.amazon.com/Underground-Guide-Los-Angeles-2nd/dp/0916397815 23 listed contributors] are claimed as "his" works. -- [[User:Ricky81682|Ricky81682]] ([[User talk:Ricky81682|talk]]) 20:22, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Revision as of 20:32, 12 June 2009

The following discussions are requested to have community-wide attention:

  • Talk:David Sheffield Bell () — Need more editors to weigh in on the large scale differences between two edits.[1]. Ward20 (talk) 02:45, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Talk:Robert Young (author) (RfC ) — Should general information about live blood analysis and alkaline diets that does not specifically mention Young or his specific claims go into Young's article or into the live blood analysis and alkaline diets articles? 06:39, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Talk:Mary Kay Letourneau (RfC: Should this article mention the "HotForTeacher" nights?) — Should the article mention the "Hot for teacher" nights hosted by Mary Kay and Vili? -- Avi (talk) 20:11, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Talk:Carrie Prejean (RFC - Phrasing of Perez Hiltons criticisms ) — The heart of this dispute, and correct me if I am wrong, lies at the use of the full quote from Perez Hilton regarding Ms. Prejean. Some users think that we need to include the actual wording of the quote, in particular "dumb bitch", while other users prefer using suggestive terms such as pejorative, b-word, b----. There is plenty of discussion above about BLP concerns by some, about censorship concerns by others (on both sides, those who think we are censoring Perez's words to be kind to him, and those who think we are censoring to be kind to Ms. Prejean), and about a whole host of other issues. This really has just gone back and forth for the last month, its time for some fresh outside opinions. The question is: should we refer to Hilton's statements, and if so should we use the wording he uses. Thanks for your time. TharsHammar Bits andPieces 17:43, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
