== women painters ==
Hi Sionk. To answer your question, "Is there any reason you're emptying the categories for British women painters" -- yes, there is. It's my understanding of [[Wikipedia:Categorization/Ethnicity, gender, religion and sexuality|the categorization guidelines]] that categorizing painters by gender is not desirable, because gender is not objectively relevant to that activity. There's no inherent skill advantage to either gender. Neither can you choose any canvas at random and identify the gender of the artist. Keeping women painters in their own categories arguably perpetuates a second-class status. All that said, I can see the other side of the argument, and the last thing I want is to descend into a pointless bout of wiki-lawyering. In good faith and good humor -- --[[User:Lockley|Lockley]] ([[User talk:Lockley|talk]]) 17:45, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

Some advice
Sionk, I ran across an article you helped out with at Articles for Creation back in January and you found the topic not notable at that point. A few days ago the article, Wood Law Firm, was posted. Reviewing it for DYK, it didn't seem to pass the basic notability test for me based upon the sources provided (only one of which discusses the firm at all--and gets its info from the firm's website). I'm on the fence about AfDing it, would like to see if your initial opinion that "If it exists it's not at all obvious, so probably indicates non-notability" has changed at all. If not, I think I'll open a deletion discussion. Thanks (following any comments on this page). AbstractIllusions (talk) 01:48, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Completely agree. The article seems more about Randall K Wood than the law firm. The anews articles are about other lawyers/law firms. I can't see anything else online apart from directory listings. Sionk (talk) 05:32, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, good to get another read on it. AfD filed. AbstractIllusions (talk) 12:55, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Eileen McGann article
Sionk, Thanks so much for your creating the Eileen McGann article from AfC and your significant work on it to improve it to "Start Class" standard. I was pretty frustrated with the AfC experience, so may take your suggestion with future articles to simply create them myself. (I'll sandbox them and ask advice from such as you, first, of course! ;-) ) I've been at work cleaning up the citations (even added a Welsh one for you!) and Categorizing. Any further suggestions or opinions would be appreciated. Spartan26 (talk) 07:10, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Sionk,
Really appreciate you taking the time to review my submission. I made some edits, and added additional sources, more journalistic and relevant for Coots. Can you please take a look and let me know if it's sufficient. If not, I'm happy to research for more news articles.
Hello Sionk,
Really appreciate you taking the time to answer and review my submission. I chatted with the help community, and we worked together for cleaning and adding sources. Then, I'm waiting for a picture approval (I sent the photographer a mail with this template: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Declaration_of_consent_for_all_enquiries), and i'll forward it to "permissions@wikimedia.org" after. I'm still adding sources when I find relevant one, and keep increasing the submission thanks to your recommendation.
Sionk, thank you for your reviewer comment--it does make sense that Comprehensive Physiology should be included in the American Physiological Society's list of publications. While I am working on that, I thought I would share with you that Comprehensive Physiology is referred to in one of our Editor's entries: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_Garland,_Jr. The instructions I followed for creating pages for Academic Journals discouraged us from including lists of Editors, or I could have put this link in before. Does this bit of indormation help? Margaretreich (talk) 18:04, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Erika Winters, hi Sionk need support!
Hi Sionk, thanks for your comments on Erika Winters document, I did change some references on the document, seems that there is a perception issue here since I went to the on line live help and the person who helped me told me that the references were OK, please note that some are form Erika’s Web page which shows the actual printout of the Magazine or Newspaper since they are no longer in line. I would appreciate your support on advising which reference is no valid for you so I can either delete it or se how can I improve it.
Your punctual comments will be appreciated.
Thanks, Daniel
Hi Sionk, I submitted this article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Renana_Peres. She is a well known researcher in the marketing field. My article was rejected on grounds that my sources were not reliable. The sources I used were books, internet articles that were written about her studies and research papers. I had gone over many wiki articles of academic scholar and did not find even one that didn't contain sources which consist of material published by the scholar or her research team. Still, I have provided several reliable and authentic sources. What other corrections should be done in terms of the references? I would greatly appreciate it if you could point out the problematic refrences.

You mentioned that none of the sources were about Patricia Brown. While one of the sources was not about her (the one about the college chancellor) all of the other sources do mention her by either her name "Patricia" or her nickname Trish. I had someone from the wiki live chat take a look at it and they were confused by your comment as well and said that I should reach out to you for clarification.
I also added more sources and realized that I forgot to include the page numbers for my offline newspaper articles and added those as well. I also removed a couple of sentences that were not directly related to Patricia Brown, like the sentence about the college chancellor.
I appreciate any guidance you can give me - I am new to this!
Dear Sionk - I wrote to you a couple of times last week (regards the additions I made to the page)but I didn't hear back (which is fine as there is no great rush) However, I can't find any reference to the messages I sent you anywhere now so I am unsure you received these or where I go from here. Apologies, I'm new to all this & find it pretty bewildering at times to be honest! Just a brief outline of the requirements now needed would be great - thanks - Rob JeffersonWSoiwittaya (talk) 18:17, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Sionk - just added 3 references (citations?)for evidence of place & year of exhibitions - as requested on the page. I imagine that's enough but if you require more please let me know - Thanks - Rob JeffersonWSoiwittaya (talk) 18:45, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I made some changes to the article yesterday. I'm sure if any other editors have a problem with it, they'll let you know. As I've said several times, any grand claims need to be reliably sourced. Reliable sources aren't the gallery that represents him - they're interested in promoting him and his work. Sionk (talk) 22:19, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello
I just resubmitted the above article. I have removed most of the newspaper citations and made it much shorter. It is the first wikipedia entry I have made so I much appreciate your feedback.

See Wikipedia's golden rule of notability. You'll need to prove she was widely known and important by adding reliable, journalistic (or expert book) sources that talk about her in some depth. My understanding of the film making process is the producers are the managers that make sure things happen. The creative leaders are the directors, writers and actors, who usually get the publicity and (justly) the credit for the product. I wish you luck finding relaible coverage about her!

Medio Article Decline
Hello Sionk,
That's for your comment about news article coverage regarding notability.
Is the problem that the sources are too tech specific?
If so what advice can you give me to fix that? If most of the sources are tech specific do I just wait until the company is referenced is other news?
Any advice on how to improve the article would be much appreciated.Winvite (talk) 17:35, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's the idea I'm afraid. Wikipedia is has tough standards that commercial organizations need to meet - outlined in WP:NCORP. Almost all companies will have some sort of mention in speciliast interest websites and publications. The objective is to prove they are more than ordinary and have reached wider notice.

Parsons Paris Clarification
Hello Sionk,
I hope that my last comment on the Parsons Paris (2013) talk page cleared up some of the confusion. Do you need any additional documents to support the claims made?

Your feedback on my article about Russ P. Reeder.
Hi Sionk,
Thanks so much for taking the time to review the article I submitted about Russ P. Reeder. I was wondering whether the edits I made were OK.
Weirdly enough, another reviewer (Woona) just sent me a message about an article about a "Shaun McCarthy" that I never wrote. Not sure what that's about.
