Discussion at Donald Trump - what to put here ?
Looking for some 'biography' inputs....
I have started a discussion at Donald Trump Had any impact on Trumps life over what could guide "what fits" into the named article and determine what belongs to the Donald Trump article. Most items should go to other articles -- what properties could be looked at to determine if it goes here ?
If you’ve got other good ways to identify proper content for an article about a person, please add to the mix — all measures needed, the question recurs frequently.

Draft:Sophia Wisniewska
Hello! On behalf of Sophia Wisniewska, I've submitted a draft article about her as part of my work at Beutler Ink. Given my conflict of interest, I do not edit the main space and ask independent editors to review for accuracy, neutrality, and verifiability. Wisniewska's work as a university administrator is a public role, and she's received coverage for that (both in terms of accomplishments and also critical coverage from her time at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg). I'm happy to address any questions or concerns that may arise during the review process. Thanks in advance for any feedback. Inkian Jason (talk) 21:38, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

ATTN. EDITORS -RE: Dwight D. Eisenhower - Semi-Protected Edit Request for a link to cultural diplomacy during the Cold War (1953-1962).
Hello Fellow Wikipedian Editors: Just a quick note to let you know that a Semi-Protected Edit Request has been posted on the Talk Page on the article Dwight D. Eisenhower to include a reference for his utilization of cultural diplomacy during the Cold War (1953-1962) in an effort to strengthen diplomatic relations between Europe and the United States. (See here: Talk:Dwight D. Eisenhower). Perhaps when an Editor has some extra time the requested edit can be reviewed and possibly incorporated into the article.

Hi. There's a problem since user Icewhiz has deleted some important information about Stefan Michnik's biography, namely his crimes against Polish anti-communists. He did that claiming that the given source wasn't suitable but when I provided an official publication about it, he still reverted that claiming that it's not good enough.

- Note subject has not been convicted, and lives in Sweden since 1968. To be clear, the suggested sources are the far-right Nasz Dziennik newspaper, and a book by Jerzy Robert Nowak who is known for his discourse on masons and Jews.[1][2] Neither of those are remotely appropriate for this topic area, in particular not a BLP.Icewhiz (talk) 20:15, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Stanislas de Clermont-Tonnerre
The article about Stanislas de Clermont-Tonnerre says that only his daughter reached adulthood and that she had no children, so there would be no descendants of Stanislas. Nevertheless this is not correct. Stanislas de Clermont-Tonnerre appears in my family tree because his son, Jean Theo, was rescued by the domestic staff of Stanislas during the revolution and was brought to Aachen/Aix-la-Chapelle in Germany where he later married Maria Josepha Wewers and had least two children who both have descendants who are still alive.

Perhaps to get a few members to comment on "greatest of all-time" in leads.
There is an RFC going on at Tennis Project about adding greatest of all-time to tennis article leads. The project has kept the subjectivity out of leads for awhile, but some have expressed an interest to re-add the terms (as they just did to Roger Federer.

Close connection tag at James D. Zirin
I'm Jim, the subject of the James D. Zirin Wikipedia article. In the past I've had some difficulty making and suggesting improvements to the page, but my understanding of Wikipedia's guidelines was fairly limited and I've since learned I shouldn't edit the article directly. I'm now trying to work with other editors to discuss and make changes for me, specifically with removal of the "close connection" tag.
In June, one editor has said they "don't have any philosophical opposition to removal of the Close Contributor template if someone discovers that the article is now in a reasonable shape…". I've asked for assistance at Talk:James_D._Zirin#Close_connection_tag as well as the conflict of interest noticeboard with no luck. I'm hoping someone who watches this page might be willing to take a look at the article's text and either remove the tag if there are no major concerns, or share which text is problematic so I can take appropriate steps to address.

WikiProject Biography
The pages that alphabetically list the names of those with a biography on Wikipedia are helpfully presented. It’s an important project.
However, the presentation of each of these thousands of pages is flawed, because there is an inadequate explanation of the purpose of each page in the page header.
Visitors who accidentally stumble upon one of these pages may thus assume an incorrect understanding of what they have found.
Generally in WikiPedia, lists are a subset of a whole and have a clear heading in bold type explaining what that subset is and, if more than one page is needed, that explanation is set in the header of all those pages.
So, since an accidental visitor to one of these biography pages will bring this understanding of WikiPedia’s approach to page structure, such a visitor is more likely to assume the list they discover is one of biographies of a sub-group (perhaps biographies of birdwatchers) in WikiPedia. They are less likely to assume each page is a part of a list of every biography in WikiPedia.
So, as there is no descriptive heading, the reader of these pages is more likely to think the name of the subset has been erroneously omitted - ‘birdwatchers’ in my example - than to recognise it is in fact the list of all names in this important project.
It should be made more clear at the top of each page what is being displayed.
What’s missing is a succinct explanation stating what the list represents.
As space is at a premium, perhaps the description of the number of pages (>12,000) is less important. After all, if replaced by a brief explanation, then the proportion of visitors that would recognise that there would be many pages is larger than the proportion whi immediately understand that this is a list of all biographies in EikiPedia.
