Discussion on the Notability and Sourcing Concerns of the Stewart Shining Article

Hello fellow editors,

I have reviewed the current Stewart Shining article and found several issues regarding sourcing and notability that need to be addressed. Below is a detailed list of the sources currently used, along with specific concerns for each:

1. Broken Links or Unavailable Sources:

• http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/si_online/covers/issues/2001/0201.html
• "Phuket, Thailand, October 2000". The Advocate. HighBeam Research, Inc. February 3, 2004. Retrieved March 23, 2008.

• Alessandra Ambrosio - HQ Photoshoot Pictures by Stewart Shining (POTW #5)". celebrians.com. April 26, 2007. Archived from the original on May 29, 2007. Retrieved March 23, 2008.

2. Links That Do Not Verify Notability or Credibility:

• Articles like “Goddess of the Mediterranean” from CNN/Sports Illustrated and various Rolling Stone mentions (e.g., "'N Sync - RS 837") cite Shining's work but do not contribute to establishing his notability as they do not discuss his role or influence substantively.

3. Overreliance on Primary Sources:

• “Covers” on stewartshining.com – Directly from the subject’s own website, which is a primary source and potentially biased. "Covers". stewartshining.com. Retrieved March 23, 2008.
• Multiple entries from celebrians.com – Again, primary sources that mainly show the subject's work without critical analysis or third-party perspective.
• "Keira Knightley - HQ Photoshoot Pictures by Stewart Shining". celebrians.com. March 28, 2007. Archived from the original on July 8, 2011. Retrieved March 23, 2008.
• "Evangeline Lilly - HQ Photoshoot Pictures by Stewart Shining". celebrians.com. March 10, 2007. Archived from the original on March 20, 2007. Retrieved March 23, 2008.
• Pink - In the Bathtub HQ Photoshoot Pictures". celebrians.com. December 30, 2006. Archived from the original on March 15, 2007. Retrieved March 23, 2008.
• Alessandra Ambrosio - HQ Photoshoot Pictures by Stewart Shining (POTW #5)". celebrians.com. April 26, 2007. Archived from the original on May 29, 2007. Retrieved March 23, 2008.

4. Misrepresentation of Roles or Inaccurate Information:

• The Wall Street Journal article “New Optimism for AIDS Activist” does not verify that Shining was the president of the non-profit, nor does any other reliable source confirm his involvement on the foundation’s board. "New Optimism for AIDS Activist". Wall Street Journal. May 19, 2013. Retrieved May 29,2013.
• Stewart Shining was not mentioned in the article source, and does not verify his role as a photographer. "Photography To Help New Jersey Children". Photo District News Pulse. The Nielsen Company. July 31, 2007. Archived from the original on March 12, 2008. Retrieved March 23,2008.

Given these issues, I propose we discuss the potential need for major edits to ensure compliance with Wikipedia’s verifiability and notability standards. We might need to consider deleting non-compliant sections or even nominating the page for deletion if notability cannot be established with better sources.

I welcome any input, additional observations, or suggestions for reliable secondary sources that could be used to improve the article.

Thank you for your attention and contributions. Mitsoukorussie (talk) 18:52, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Proposal for Deletion

Hello fellow editors,

After careful review and consideration, I am proposing the deletion of the Stewart Shining article due to significant concerns about the notability and sourcing of the content. Despite my efforts to engage in discussions and seek improvements or validations for the content, there has been a lack of response and no significant contributions addressing these concerns.

Here are the main issues that lead to this proposal:

1. Broken and Unreliable Sources: Many of the sources cited in the article are either broken or do not meet the reliability standards required by Wikipedia. This includes archived links that no longer provide verifiable information and sources that do not substantively discuss the subject's notability.
2. Overreliance on Primary Sources: The article relies heavily on primary sources or sources that are closely connected to the subject, which may introduce bias and do not adequately demonstrate the subject's notability from a neutral point of view.
3. Lack of Independent Coverage: There is a significant lack of independent, reliable sources that discuss the subject's contributions in a manner that meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines for biographies of living people.

Given these points, and in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies, I believe that a community discussion via the Articles for Deletion (AfD) process is warranted to determine if this article should be retained, altered, or deleted. I invite all interested editors to participate in this discussion to reach a consensus based on Wikipedia's guidelines and standards.

Thank you for your attention and contributions to this matter. Mitsoukorussie (talk) 04:46, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
