Talk:Rubén Torres Llorca

Notice: This article lacks WP:A to establish WP:BIO

In my opinion, this article either lacks sufficient Attribution that it satisfies the Notability criteria for Biographies, or it may violate the Conflict of interest guideline, or perhaps it is a Copyright violation.

Untitled

Wikipedia articles must be based on reliable sources to verify any claims of notability. Even though the lack of reliable source attribution in an article is not grounds for deletion in itself, an article with absolutely no sources (or only external links to unreliable ones) suggests to some editors that multiple reliable sources may not, in fact, exist.

Although I am considering tagging this article for deletion according to the Deletion policy, I am nonetheless willing to assist User:ArleArt (talk · contribs), and other recent contributors to this article, to make constructive improvements to it ... I do not have time to examine this article in depth at the moment, and it may improve over time, in which case this warning was premature.

Please respond on this Discussion page, instead of on my Talk page, in order to avoid fragmenting the conversation. Happy Editing! —72.75.72.63 (talk · contribs) 04:13, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Discussion at COI/N

Here is the archived discussion from Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding Category:Cuban contemporary artists ... a bot has already removed the WP:LINKSPAM that was the source of the WP:COPYVIO concern. —72.75.72.63 (talk) 23:08, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Quazi-quoting from my talk page: COI and other issues aside, the guy seems to be notable. Regardless of how the article got here, it doesn't serve Wikipedia well unless there is a bonified reason to delete the article. A quick googling shows he is known and likely a good article can be made. "It's not like the encyclopedia is over-stuffed with information on Cuban painters." so I would prefer to try to salvage the article rather than delete it for the wrong reasons. If there was a bonified copyvio issue, then yes, it would have to be deleted (hopefully recreated cleanly in userspace first, however) but that doesn't seem to be the issue, or at least claimed. We are on the same side of the issue, we just have different solutions to the same problem. Pharmboy (talk) 00:45, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Cleanup needed

Would someone please use {{cite news}} templates for the newspaper references, so that they will display in the standardized format? Thnx! —72.75.72.63 (talk · contribs) _{00:53, 5 February 2008 (UTC)}

This article has improved a lot since the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rubén Torres Llorca nomination ... it remains for Some Other Editor to put some lipstick on this pig. :-) —72.75.72.63 (talk) 13:48, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Please see the Cuban artists checklist and update it with any changes that you make to this article ... Happy Editing! —72.75.72.63 (talk · contribs) _{13:55, 5 February 2008 (UTC)}
