Pomona Hotel Entry

[edit]

Hello. The wikipedia entry you wrote for the Pomona Hotel Fire appears to draw extensively from both my MFA thesis and an article I submitted to the Oregon Historical Society several days prior to your article's creation. I understand we are both members of the Portland State community and I would be grateful if you would take this down or minimize the text until such time as my work has had the opportunity to be published. Thank you. MLSchepps (talk) 19:27, 1 April 2020 (UTC)ML Schepps[reply]

Hi, @MLSchepps: This is has to be a pure coincidence, as strange as that sounds—I did write this article back in September, but I assure you I did not use your thesis or an OHS article when writing it—all of the information was gleaned from newspaper articles that are cited in the footnotes, most of which I excised myself on Newspapers.com (my username there is the same as it is here, and the clippings should come up as having been done by me). Is it possible we merely both cited the same newspaper articles?
If you did in fact submit a thesis at this same time, the similarity is purely serendipitous. The timing is admittedly very strange. I am an alumnus of Portland State but have not been a student there in many years, and I assure you I do not have access to current students' pending theses. I don't know if I can delete the article or what could possibly be done to mitigate this, but I promise you I did not crib or plagiarize of your thesis, nor did/do I have access to it. I have an MA myself and would never, under any circumstances, copy someone's work. --Drown Soda (talk) 22:00, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Drown Soda. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Boring Middle School".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Article Assistance

[edit]

Hello Drown Soda, For about a week now, I have been working on a draft on an obscure 1985 horror film called Attack of the Beast Creatures and I am in need of some assistance tracking down some information on the film's production and releases. Since you are pretty good at gathering obscure sources I was wondering if you could do a little digging and see what you can come up with (you don't really need to add the information as I can do that part myself. If you are willing to do so please feel free to let me know.--Paleface Jack (talk) 23:35, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Paleface Jack: I did a search through Newspapers.com and only came across a couple of mentions regarding this film's home video release; it's mentioned in this New York Daily News article, and briefly in this Los Angeles Times article. I couldn't find anything other than those, but I can check again. I looked at your draft and it looks like you have all the substantial book sources I could find from running a search on Google Books. --Drown Soda (talk) 21:06, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I found a VERY rare interview with the director today that I will start incorporating tomorrow. The main thing I need is a plot expansion, but other than that I think I am good.--Paleface Jack (talk) 21:14, 20 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A Continued Collaboration of Sorts

[edit]

Hello Drown Soda, I just wanted to congratulate you on your continued work through various WikiProjects and offer you a proposition of sorts. For a while now I have been working on an article for the Old West serial killer Stephen Dee Richards, which was recently passed as GA. My plan with the article is to get it all up to Featured Status, but there are some tasks I want to get done on it before I submit it. Since you are also a part of the same Old West task force, specializing in roughly the same subjects, I thought it would be beneficial to have a continued collaboration on expanding articles up to Good and Featured Status, which would start with the Richards article. I have already jotted down a list of tasks that I was going to do myself but if you can help me with that, I think it will all go a lot smoother (and relatively quicker). If you are or are not interested in this, please let me know. Sincerely, --Paleface Jack (talk) 15:53, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Paleface Jack: I would be happy to assist where I can; let me know and I can try and do some work on it where I have time. --Drown Soda (talk) 17:11, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Right now I am going to be scanning over all the sources I have used in the article to see if there is anything I have missed. Depending on whether or not you would be willing to do this, I have been trying to find additional images on Richards but have been coming up near empty-handed. I did find one (an illustration on his execution) but it can only be used (hopefully) by requesting it at the Nebraska Historical Society which I have. In the meantime, I have been scouring the corners of the web in hopes of finding an actual photograph as there is a mention of it in one of the newspaper reports and behavior of such people at the time makes it likely that there is one out there. If we can both put our heads together on this we can hopefully turn up something (who knows it might be in a photo archive or something). If you can help me with this and some additional searching feel free to let me know or you can look at the list of tasks that I added on the article's talk page.--Paleface Jack (talk) 17:52, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The file File:The Virgin Suicides (film).jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free album cover being used in a decorative manner in The Virgin Suicides (film)#Music. Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in WP:NFC#cite_note-3 and the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC#8 is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article, and the use of soundtrack album cover art in articles about films or TV programs is generally not allowed for this reason as explained in WP:FILMSCORE and MOS:TVPRODUCTION.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:22, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Red Shoes (1948 film) - ref error

[edit]

Hi, in this edit, you added the sentence "According to Powell, the original screenplay contained significantly more dialogue and less story." but your source - {{sfn|McLean|20081988p=33}} - is invalid. Did you use the 1988 article in Dance Chronicle, or the 2008 book Dying Swans and Madmen: Ballet, the Body, and Narrative Cinema? --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 16:50, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The file File:Cindy Wilson.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:DECORATIVE non-free use in Cindy Wilson#1976–1984: Career beginnings and The B-52's which fails WP:NFCC#1 and WP:NFCC#8. The photo shows Cindy Wilson and her brother Ricky performing together, but a non-free image of the two isn't really necessary per WP:FREER for the reader to understand that the two are brother and sister and that they both helped found the B-52's. Since Cindy Wilson is still living, a non-free image of her isn't needed for primary identification purposes: the free equivalent File:The B52s en Barcelona (2660131223).jpg used in the main infobox of her BLP serves that purpose. Ricky Wilson is dead, but there is already a different non-free image (File:Rickywilsontimecapsule.jpg) being used in his biography article to identify him. That means the image doesn't meet NFCC#1 if identification or to "illustrate the subject in question" is its primary purpose. The contextual significance required by NFCC#8 is also lacking since the image itself isn't the subject of any sourced critical commentary anywhere in the article and what the image represents (the two as brother and sister performing together) doesn't require a non-free image to be seen by the reader for the relationship between the two to be understood; thus, removing it isn't going to be detrimental to the reader's understanding of the relationship between the two or their involvement together in the band. The fact that file doesn't appear to have been ever added to the article about Ricky also weakens the case for its non-free use because if it's justified in the "Cindy Wilson" article, then it should also be justifiable in the "Ricky Wilson" article for the same reasons. Unless there's something particular to this image (e.g. a controversy) that somehow received critical commentary in reliable sources at the time or since then, then it's going to be really hard to justify it's non-free use in any article. It might be a unique image, but that alone in and of itself isn't really a valid justification for non-free use.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:12, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
