From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm looking for someone to review the new page I created for harmonica blues player Mark Hummel. Thanks for your help![edit]

Hmm, it's quite well written. There aren't any pressing concerns, but I would recommend that you find some more third party references.-Reconsider! 13:51, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nicely written and referenced. Looks Good!Tofutwitch11 (talk) 12:12, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There's a lot of information there, and it's nicely organised, but I agree with Reconsider's point about maybe adding more references from third parties, i.e. not just pages to do with the article's subject. Chevymontecarlo 08:56, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is it correctly formatted and organized,and I also need help with the names.. for Wikipedia:IPA_for_English

The formatting is correct, but the artist doesn't seem to meet the criteria of WP:MUSIC. Could you provide a source to verify his association with Island/Def Jam? -Reconsider! 13:56, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes.... [1] BlackImperial (talk) 20:00, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ronnie Nelson is running for Colorado State Representative HD5 does this article qualify and have merit? There are references to him in the Denver Post

Thanks for the feedback.

This is a brand new (unreviewed) article. The New York Times obituary cited in the References so perfectly summarizes the life of Mr. Valency that you could hardly do better than to copy the entire thing into this article. But we cannot do that--can we?? What does an editor do in such cases? I am stumped. I have more material to add to this article, but I am going to wait until I get some feedback. Incidentally, I searched for most references in other articles to Valency and added the appropriate links to this article. (I had already placed these same remarks on the Maurice Valency talk page).

Just wondering if this is up to general standards for an article as it's important my talent has a valid and accurate Wikipedia page with a new television show currently shooting all over the country people have been asking why there is little presence on the internet. I've used a couple of different types of sources including published articles and video. I truly appreciate your feedback.

Ipas_(organization) Feedback needed[edit]

Created this page Ipas_(organization) sum]] because the organization Ipas is referenced in multiple places on wikipedia (including being a primary reference for other wikipedia articles) but there was no primary wiki page for Ipas itself. I do work for Ipas but have written article as factually as possible, included multiple references to external sources, and have revised the content after it was initially tagged as "promotional" in nature. Please provide feedback that would help to align the article to wikipedia standards. I also added a disambiguation page to distinguish between Intelligent Parking Assistance System, India Pale Ales (IPAs) and Ipas (organization).

Looking to see if page listed above is considered valid and is ready for posting. Caitlinmcfeely (talk) 18:35, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think that basically the article is fine. For some editors, there may be a bit too much content that is not based on third-party sources, but as far as I can tell the organization seems notable enough. The article needs cleanup, especially the references, but I think you should be good to go. Don't forget: when you go live, use the "Move" function to preserve the article history. If you don't know how to do that, drop me a line on my talk page. Good luck. Drmies (talk) 19:02, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've read how to do a hanging indent, but can't get it to work. Can someone please explain that to me? I'd like to use hanging indent for publications that take more than one line, and to replace the extra spaces between reviews by a hanging indent. Thanks!

I would love to add reliable sources, but since this is a topic of common knowledge for most people who work in an office I am not sure how to accomplish this. I thank you kindly in advance for your advice.

It's a nice little starting point for an article, but I think it could do with being merged into the Filing cabinet article, as has already been suggested on the page. Chevymontecarlo 08:51, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article describes a company involved in producing branded entertainment, infomercials, paid product placement and other related marketing methods. Would appreciate feedback on whether the article is properly sourced and constructed.

This link doesn't appear to lead to the right article. Are you sure that is the correct link? Thanks. Chevymontecarlo 08:50, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Any comments or feedback on my article greatly appreciated. Hope to put up a picture soon.

A few points:
  • Try and add some web references - the printed references you have at the moment are great, but it's always nice to have some web references as well - they can be very useful to the reader.
  • Consider adding an infobox - you can use a template like this one. It helps to just summarise the key points about the article's subject.
  • Finally, maybe try and add some sections to the article - for example,
==Early life==

creates a section with 'Early Life' as the name. It helps to break up the article and make it easier to read. Chevymontecarlo 08:48, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just making sure I have enough reliable sources and content before submitting.

Try and add some names to those references, like this:
<ref>[http://www.example.com|Reference name goes here!]</ref>

Also, there seems to be a problem with the images somewhere, so if you can fix that it'd be great. Chevymontecarlo 08:40, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
