verifiability policy Re:List of materials science conferencesHi, I've added in a couple of references to indicate importance of meetings in the list (demonstration of >15K attendees for MRS meetings, and importance to major research network), is there anything else that should to be added to cover the verifiability requirements?

LeguanismHi Jarkeld You didn't approve my article about "Leguanism". I created the word as a test for my high school students in Sweden to se if they could be critical against a word they never heard before. Is there a chance to have the article published anyway even if the word is fake? - Caaarl81 (talk) 18:33, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
HelpYou are presently dealing with my submission on "The Jones Sewing Machine Co.". The numbers 1-4 have appeared above the references. Was I meant to put the (ref) tags in the text? If not, what do I do with these numbers. Secondly, on the "Singer Sewing Machine Company" page I have added 3 pictures near the bottom with one more to come. Two of them are displayed but the first one will not show, although I have checked the file name and that it has uploaded. Can you spot what I am doing wrong because I carried out the same procedure for all three pictures. Panjigally (talk) 20:05, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Article RejectionHello, I submitted a band article that you have rejected. I would like to get some help on getting it approved. The band, Gospel Claws, that I wrote the article about has a member, Joel Marquard, from Dear and the Headlights which is band that has toured nationally and has its own wikipedia page, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dear_and_the_Headlights, which has been approved. In the years since Marquard left Dear and the Headlights to form Gospel Claws, it has gained notability on its own. They have been featured on NPR All Songs Considered, Paste Magazine, charted on CMJ Top 200 and FMQB Submodern chart. They have also recorded with Bob Hoag, whose wikipedia page lists Gospel Claws, to produce two albums which were released on an indie record label, Common Wall Media, nationally. This is my first article and I hope to contribute further so please help me out. Thanks ! johnclaw (talk) 11:26, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
article submissionhi Jarkeld I have submitted the article for the band Capade and it was declined (Declining submission: subject appears to be a non-notable musical performer or work) The article has references to 3 reputable newspapers with reviews on the band. It also has links to two reputable music channels, Much Music and Shaw TV. The band has also charted on one of the Canadian College charts (I can insert that as well). Even without that, when I looked at the guidelines for the article to be notable it required at leas three press references. What am I doing wrong? thank you Ivan Tucakov (talk) 01:30, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
MANTA Mui Ne.Hi Jarkeld, Thanks for reviewing my article from MANTA Mui Ne. Advice please: on how best to write about development of sailing as a new sport for Vietnam, for Wikipedia, without mentioning the developer(s)? Especially if the article is on the essential points of development to keep it short and succinct for your readers. Or not relevant at this stage for Wikipedia, for example, until Vietnam has a sailing federation accepted by ISAF and other things in the pipeline up to 2016? The Vietnam Olympic Committee asked me for help to set up the sport and i told them it is too big for me so i need to connect with others, especially as my work for them has to be probono and delayed the opening of VN's first sailing school. I understand if this is not a subject for Wikipedia or a catch 22. All the best, Julia MANTA Mui Ne (talk) 15:48, 20 February 2011 (UTC) p.s. i understand it is necessary to develop regional sailing for sailing to remain as an Olympic sport MANTA Mui Ne (talk) 15:55, 20 February 2011 (UTC) N.B. Please excuse three more considerations against a wider article (which could be common to other developing countries): (i) i decided it was not fair to mention eight other organisations associated with 'Vietnam sailing development' as two (including one very well known international charter company) left the country to escape local border police bia taxes, one went bankrupt, one has yet to register and is more a drinking club with a once a year event for about ten people, one is successful for export of large boats, one makes copies of dinghy classes locally, two are about to deliver an event in mid to late March, one delivers an event every two years from outside Vietnam for large yachts (and the Vietnamese organisers did not know how best to replicate from Vietnam (which they understand should not be a problem starting with dinghies). (ii) The sails of Vietnamese junks in a north Vietnam bay are currently cosmetic and i can email you my captains' navigation training report which compares Vietnamese and local navigation standards/differences which i could not mention publically in respect of lives lost recently. I can email my captain's navigation handbook in Vietnamese and English which was 99% complete six months ago. (The final 1% design work is underway although two key assistants went on six month honeymoon, extra busy before leaving. (iii) A short article does not need to mention authority Uturns, academic v. financial leverage or other issues. I could mention the authorities i work with, however, they have not really been exposed to the international sport. Please excuse the details which are not upbeat. Please let me know if you have any questions (to juliashaw2@gmail.com if necessary so as not to overload your talk page). I still understand if it is necessary to write off this articleMANTA Mui Ne (talk) 07:12, 22 February 2011 (UTC) Another thought in respect of independent advice on conflict of interest (which i need to understand better): There is a chance an instructor of Olympic judges is visiting in March to help review/advise on sailing developments and may have advice on approach/need/not for this article ...if he too is not too busy as his work includes running the legal/umpiring side of sailing for the next Olympics. The timing could coincide with editing assistance required for a six week backlog mentioned on WikipediaMANTA Mui Ne (talk) 07:31, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

Independent review by ChzzJarkeld, I'm pretty confident you won't mind me jumping in here. I hope this is appropriate. Chzz ► 01:56, 15 March 2011 (UTC) Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Mayor Nick Mason DonnieDog, in the 'decline', Jarkeld left a comment regarding WP:POLITICIAN. It would be helpful if you could review that link, and specifically explain which of those 3 criteria you believe the individual meets, and explain why - particularly with regards to significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the source.
If you are certain that there is "significant coverage", then you might consider the following suggestions;
He is the former Mayor of Northfork, West Virginia.[citation needed] Prior to being elected mayor, Nick was a successful businessman in Northfork.[citation needed] He also continued to own and operate his own restaurant in Northfork during his time as Mayor.[citation needed] Nick has been a key political figure in McDowell County, West Virginia for many years.[citation needed]
The current proposed article contains words that introduce bias and unsupported attributions. My most important suggestion though, DonnieDog, is: work on some other Wikipedia articles. By doing so, you will gain experience in all these matters, as well as getting help from other Wikipedians. We have plenty of articles that need help. There is no deadline; the draft will not be deleted - you can always come back to it, in some weeks or months. Best wishes, Chzz ► 01:56, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Hello Jarkeld,I thought i was trying to be a helper to some new comers since creation of userpages can be a trying task for them.But since you see no reason for that,i'll go with you then.Cheers Earlymen (talk) 04:31,19 March 2011 (UTC) Monmouth Civic ChorusHi, user Jarkeld: This is user Tenorio40 writing on March 27, 2011. So far, we haven't had too much time (with taxes due April 15 and my collaborator going to Maryland 3 days this week, and I being busy all week preparing a Friday lecture on 3G Wireless Network design). So far, we have 31 references in our article, and we have found over 250 more external citations. We have found more than 250 articles with extensive reviews of our chorus performances at local newspaper websites. My collaborator and I are engaged in a raging debate whether we should include any of 80 additional articles we have found in the New York Times. New York City is an hour away, and the 80 New York Times articles we found at www.nytimes.org are short announcements in the "New Jersey forthcoming events" section. We did not find any New York Times reviews of our performance reviews. Clearly the New York Times is better known than "The Asbury Park Press" or "The Hub" or "The Independent". It would "look" better if we include at least a few references to show that the New York Times considers us important enough to include us in their "New Jersey forthcoming events" section. Do you agree? But the bulk of our references should be reviews in "The Asbury Park Press", "The Hub", and other local newspapers, right? For readers who want to know what classical music reviewers wrote about our concerts, those links would be of higher value. Do you agree? Our debate is about how many New York Times "forthcoming events" links we should list in our reference section, vs. how many local newspaper reviews we should list. We also wonder how much is enough. We feel we can easily provide 150 newspaper review references in our reference list, if not more. Should we spend the time, effort and energy to locate and cite so many? How many are enough? Thanks, Richard Oppenheim, Ph.D.
By "lede", do you mean the Introduction, i.e. the leading section? I agree. My collaborator has been focused on other sections and today I started thinking we can include references also in the History section. We can certainly also add references to the Introduction. Thanks for your comment about the tone of the introduction being somewhat promotional -- I will raise this issue with two of my collaborators on the Wiki page. You didn't answer any of my questions - How many references are required and what is the value of New York Times references which are just "forthcoming event" notices? Perhaps the lack of a reply means there are no firm and set requirements. Thanks. Tenorio40 (talk) 22:19, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Hello user Jarkeld, Thanks for all your help, we really appreciate it. As you can probably tell we are passionate about our chorus :-) We have a bit of a challenge: our local newspaper, the Asbury Park Press, has 139 articles mentioning MCC, but charges for access to articles ($3.99 each or 10 for $12 -- excessive in my view, but ...). I assume we shouldn't use these unless the information is in the free summary part, sigh. Thanks Gandalf Wizard (talk) 22:46, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi, Jarkeld, I submitted our article for a re-review a few hours ago. I see the status is "review waiting" when I go to http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Tenorio40/Monmouth_Civic_Chorus but I still see the old status when I go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tenorio40/Monmouth_Civic_Chorus. I don't really understand the difference between these two URL's. Anyway, I just wanted to mention that I've been to Alkmeer, Edam, Enkhuizen, Den Haag, Leiden, Haarlem, etc. I dated a great lady from Amsterdam for a few years and was there almost every 2 months for 2 years. I miss eating Uitsmijter and Pannekoeken with spek. I really love Holland. Holland is Heel goed, and really lekker. Best, Richard (user Tenorio40) 72.79.98.205 (talk) 01:21, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Hello, Jarkeld! I notice today that the article has been moved to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monmouth_Civic_Chorus I believe this means user Armbrust has approved the article, and users who search Wikipedia for "Monmouth Civic Chorus" would find it. Is this true? User Armbrust gave the article a C-Class grade. That is disappointing. I will ask Armbrust for specific suggestions how to bring it up to the next level.

The section also clearly lies about Rizzo's involvement with Transmission Awesome. He did not create the podcast. The company article isn't the place for Internet drama and does not need to be on the page. Furthermore, stating that he was "blanket banned" and is an "unperson" is slander. The article should stick to the facts and not hearsay. No drama related things should be on the page. 24.218.95.146 (talk) 01:36, 25 April 2011 (UTC) ThanksThanks for removing vandalism from my talk page.
