Steven DiSalvo: Difference between revisions

• Comment: I remember you stating on the help channel that there are many news sources talking about the person. Try to use those to fill in information about his career, instead of referring largely to http://www.anselm.edu/Presidential-Inauguration/Dr-DiSalvo-Bio.htm .

• Comment: Hi! Thanks for your feedback. I am learning and appreciate the help! I am confused about one of your comments above: "Are there any of these that can be used as references?" I'm not sure what you mean by "these," as you state just before that sentence, "Be wary of blogs." Also, a Wiki rep (what do you call yourselves? :)) told me blogs can't be used for citations. I'm excited to fix the article to meet the guidelines and get it published. I welcome any other comments after my latest edit, now saved.Dyan at SAC (talk) 19:43, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

• Comment: For a living person we have a high standard of referencing. Every substantive fact you assert, especially one that is susceptible to potential challenge, requires a citation with a reference that is about them, and is independent of them, and is in WP:RS
  Interviews with him are his words, thus primary sources. WP:PRIMARY allows sparing usage.
  I'm wary of the PR style references. They carry far less weight than a solid reference in its own right. They tend not to be independent of the subject
  Your See Also section need to be retitled "External links', for that is what they are. Be wary of including blogs. Are there any of these that can be used as references? Fiddle Faddle 14:50, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

• Comment: Please get back to me on my talk page once you have made changes. Darylgolden^(talk) Ping when replying 00:46, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

• Comment: Hi Dyan, I noticed that your article is closely paraphrased from http://www.anselm.edu/Presidential-Inauguration/Dr-DiSalvo-Bio.htm . This is not allowed and articles must be written entirely in your own words. So it should have different sentences, paragraphing, sentence structure, etc. Darylgolden^(talk) Ping when replying 00:45, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
