Dear Colin,
Re: Kaptaan OP.
Thank you so much for your reply and suggestions. I am glad that you guided me in the right direction. I have changed my mind about creating a page of my company. Since I am not a professional editor, I will be deleting this account too. Wikipedia needs editors like you and not me. I am good to be a businessman and try be stick with that only, also I will work hard to find my company's page on this site someday.
Thanks & Regards,
Kaptaan OP
Dear Colin,
Re: Kitty Gordon
I've been researching her stage appearances, not her personal life - which is why the "gun accident" on a Chicago stage caught my eye.
(Shooting a stagehand during a performance is a real eye-opener to a performing arts archivist!!!)
Thanks, DBY
Interstellarity (talk) is wishing you Happy Holidays! This greeting (and season) promotes WikiLove and hopefully this note has made your day a little better.

Hello. I see you have marked my own page as a hoax. I do not understand this, and I am not trying to make a hoax. I have worked hard on the page and do not mean any harm. I wish to buy property in the future and make this dream into a reality. Please consider taking it off. Also, I did not notice you gave me advice, so I will read that now,
Thanks,

General Election
This month will see the General Election take place with a raft of boundary changes for the constituencies, thanks to the boundary commission review. A lot of work has been done on updating the constituency articles to cover the changes and new articles created for the new constituencies. Once results are in there will be changes to make to all of the candidate articles to show their new status as MP or not as the case may be. There will also be changes to make to the settlement articles to show the new MP and may be change the constituency if the boundary changes affect it.

Awaiting Reply on Topic: How to Submit to Editors for Publishing?[edit]
Good morning Mr. ColinFine!
I hope you are doing well today sir. I am still awaiting your answer to the questions I have posed previously in The Teahouse regarding the said topic abovementioned. Basically, I would like to be clarified what you, as an editor, consider as "notable, reliable, and independent sources", as stipulated by the Wikipedia guidelines for acceptance of articles for publishing.
I have checked again and again my sources, and they certainly pass the requirements of notability, reliability, and independence. I still am perplexed as to why you and the other editor/s are insisting they are not. I have adequately explained what kind of sources they are, mostly news articles from news agencies and scholarly pieces that are highly credible and well respected up to now.
I do not want to enter into an impasse Mr. ColinFine. As I have suggested in the previous correspondence, kindly check for yourself the sources I have mentioned -- the links are all there! And if a famous person like Maria Ressa, who I forgot was also a Nobel Peace Prize Awardee in 2021, decided to interview Ms. Paat-Dahlstrom for her views on the democratization of space, isn't that enough evidence that what Paat-Dahlstrom had to say was noteworthy enough to be published in that news publication?
Also, I would
Again, I thank you and the rest of the editorial team for your time and efforts to improve on the drafts of newbies like me :).
I look forward to your pleasant reply.
Warm regards,
Eleni
P.S: I am not sure if this page is the right venue to follow up my query regarding your "guidelines". I could not answer back on the chat trail that was initially opened for the topic above. So I had to open another query on your user page. Eleniofillyria (talk) 15:07, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Eleniofillyria. It's OK to ask me here. I didn't see your reply at the Teahouse because you didn't ping me, so I didn't get a notification.
You seem to have misunderstood what is meant by an independent source. Your first reference, for example from GMA news online, is clearly not independent, because it is obviously based on an interview,
Wikipedia is basically not interested in anything that Paat-Dahlstrom says about herself, or that her colleagues say about her - it makes no difference whether it is actually published by her or a news organisation.
If GMANews publishes an article about her that is a reporter's independent research and analysis about her, that could be an independent source. If it is merely reproducing what she says about herself, it is not. ColinFine (talk) 15:46, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
