cite error under references
I'm getting this error under references: Cite error: The named reference :9 was invoked but never defined (see the help page) and did visit the help page but can't figure out how to resolve it. Please resolve it if you know how. Thank you 62.255.211.30 (talk) 62.255.211.30 (talk) 21:15, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
 * you're getting this error because you have created ref tags with names that don't match to anything. You can view WP:REFNAME for help with that.&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 21:24, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

"Artificial Intelligence A.I." or "Exponential Technologies" or [something else] section - what is best titling. here?
AI is a category, however it is not the only exponential technology that Karle researches and works with. She's also notable in Regenerative Medicine / Biotechnology, Bioprinting, 3D printing, and digital manufacturing. Does an editor(s) have a suggestion of how to name and organize this section to best represent the tech she works with? Would you be willing to try to edit it to better represent her work? 62.255.211.30 (talk) 23:09, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm not familiar with this person, so I probably won't do any large editing, but I'd say "Artificial Intelligence A.I." is not a good title because it's redundant. Just "Artificial Intelligence" seems fine. Also as a general style note, you should stick to third person, which means not using "our" and "us". Also, it seems like you may be overly relying on primary sources here. It would be much better for establishing the notability of your content if you could reference other sources than the artist's own website and videos of herself.&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 21:27, 17 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Something like Use of Emerging and Exponential Technology as a section would be highly suitable, with subsections of the main tools she uses like 3D Printing / Additive Manufacturing, Bioprinting, AI, Synthetic Bio / Regenerative Medicine et.al.

Article needs to be rewritten
I found this article while following up what appears to be WP:UPE editing. The article has the typical problems of such editing: a poorly referenced, promotional presentation. Compare to what may be the last good version:. Everything that's not supported by BLP-quality refs should be removed. We need to identify the references that establish WP:BIO, and other high-quality references. --Hipal (talk) 18:57, 11 August 2023 (UTC)


 * @Hipal, I agree with your observation. It was heavily edited by the artist some time ago, so it is definitely a COI article (they then changed their user name after adding links and photos of their work to several other articles.) Then the additions were made by an IP. Whether there is now UPE editing going on is a distinct possibility. It also contains an excessive amount of detail (possible OR?) which should probably be pruned. Netherzone (talk) 23:17, 11 August 2023 (UTC)


 * @Hipal BLP-quality refs list below, plus myself and other editors have made updates. What else needs be done to resolve the issues and remove the templates? ArtistWatch MuseumSurvey (talk) 19:22, 22 August 2023 (UTC)


 * @Hipal Netherzone I agree with you. This page was originally created as part of a Women in Red editing project (University of Edinburgh). Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red
 * I think it might help if folks have a look at the relevant advice page for biographies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Essays/Primer_for_creating_women%27s_biographies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Essays/Primer_for_creating_women%27s_biographies
 * @ArtistWatch MuseumSurvey It does seem to me that the page has become overloaded with content and the number of references is excessive. A shorter page might be a lot clearer and more effective.  Grousebeater2 (talk) 13:00, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi. I looked at the GA rated article on Neri Oxman as an example of how to update the article on Amy Karle. Neri Oxman and Amy Karle have exhibited together and both have a number of works and extensive reference lists on their articles. I updated the article in a style more like Oxman’s and also referenced the Primer for creating women’s biographies.

I am a student editor and looked at this in detail with a peer reviewer in my class. Neither one of us know nor have a COI with either Oxman nor Karle. We think it’s updated appropriately now with a neutral point of view, not written as an advertisement, thus I removed the template tag.

I hope that my work has "sufficiently updated" the article and I welcome improvements to the work I have done. -LWu22 (talk) 20:53, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your work. While an improvement, much more is needed.
 * I'm still not clear which are the BIO refs, and the article doesn't appear to be written around such references.
 * GA articles can be helpful, but it's no substitute for following policies, guidelines, and general consensus. --Hipal (talk) 23:32, 22 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Hipal, I followed the BLP policies/guidelines, and used the BIO refs. In addition, I referenced the Primer for women's bios (and GA article of a similar person as a guideline). My peer reviewer and I are unclear why you re-added the template tag. My teacher suggested that I ask about each issue in the template on the talk page and try to resolve them one by one. Here it is:


 * This article contains content that is written like an advertisement. (August 2023). Reviewing the edits that myself and others have made it seems this has been resolved. Please point out areas that still need to be fixed or remove the template for this.


 * A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject. (August 2023) I agree that past edits read as though there was COI / UPE. We did some investigation with our teacher but couldn't find where an editor was found to be COI / UPE. We also reviewed the edit history. We couldn't find what User:Netherzone was referring to either. We did find where the artist uploaded images (clicked on the image and followed the username) and then changed their username, but not where the artist edited this article on herself under either username. Assuming good faith *and also recognizing previous problematic COI/UPE, it appears the edits that myself and others have made recently overcome previous potential COI/UPE edits. Please point out areas that still need to be fixed or remove the template for this.


 * This article may contain an excessive amount of intricate detail that may interest only a particular audience. (August 2023) This was an issue with the major works section, so I re-wrote that section. Please point out areas that still contain an excessive amount of intricate detail or remove the template for this.


 * I am trying to improve this page through WikiProject Women in Green Good Article Edit-a-thon and get it to good standing where the template tags will be removed. LWu22 (talk) 01:44, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I've provided a diff of what I think is a fairly good version of this article to use in comparison. The subsequent three edits look fine, so this version is better.
 * , could you address the COI/UPE questions?
 * A BLP article where WP:BIO-criteria references aren't clearly identifiable is a serious problem.
 * The main contributor to this article, the now blocked ArtistWatch MuseumSurvey, has demonstrated below a lack of understanding of what references are suitable for BLP articles per WP:BLPRS. That's a serious problem.
 * While we've made some progress, there's a lot more to be done. My recommendations from my starting this discussion still stand. --Hipal (talk) 02:19, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * My recommendations from my first response in the discussion below still stand.
 * I've removed the long list of museums where she's exhibited that was poorly referenced and inappropriate for the lede. A summary statement may be WP:DUE if supported by independent references that clearly demonstrate historical importance. --Hipal (talk) 15:23, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * @Hipal, @LWu22, I've been totally slammed at work the past few weeks, and don't have as much free time for volunteering.
 * I haven't yet read thru all the changes that have been made since I was pinged, but can definitely agree with Hipal's suggestion that the article was much better when it was shorter (their suggestion of the "last good version": ) after it was cleaned up by @Possibly. In general, the article was easy to spot as being COI/promo, both by the edit history and the overall tone being unencyclopedic in a specific way that's fairly clear to spot after you've been editing a while. The excessive detail, spammy sources, ref-bombing repeated removal of the COI template w/o consensus and general promotional-style combined with the fact that the artist and SPAs and a sock have edited the article, and also added photos of their work to other articles is indicative of this as well, (a form of image-spam). That is how I first became aware of this article and the artist. I apologize if that sounds critical, as she is an interesting artist, so it was a shame that the article stood out that way. Glad to see there is this effort to clean it up.
 * I'll try to find some time today and/or tomorrow to review the changes and and read thru everything here, but please be patient. Many thanks in advance! Netherzone (talk) 16:06, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I've done a read-thru of the the article for form/format (have not yet checked the sources, nor the quality thereof). IMO, there are still issues that need attention. I can go ahead and make the changes if there are no objections. Here are my thoughts; feedback is welcome:
 * Reduce size or remove the bold-italic subheadings that are the titles of projects/works. ✅
 * Both Regenerative Reliquary and The Heart of Evolution need further copy-editing for redundancy and tone. Also the former seems to be ref-bombed. They both could be shortened. RR is ref-bombed and sourcing needs to be checked; HoE is sourced to an interview with her which is a primary source, a secondary source would be better.
 * In general the article seems to be ref-bombed; an artist's full CV/resume of things written about them is not necessary to include and only adds to the promotional quality. The very best sources should be used. This can be a later conversation.
 * There are multiple instances where certain terms are capitalized when they do not need to be. ✅
 * There are a few instances of euphemisms being used rather than using direct, strait-forward encyclopedic terms, for example "passed away" ---> died; "around the world" --> internationally, "boundaries of creation" --> ?(not sure what that is)?, etc.
 * Is she really the first artist to use AI? I don't know that that claim can be made in WikiVoice.
 * Awards, and Distinctions and a couple of the more prestigious Residencies can be combined. (Normally residencies are not included, they belong on the artist's personal website, or their gallery's website). They don't need to be 3 separate sections, as they are all honors. ✅ and removed non-notable ones; renamed as section "Awards and honors"
 * The long laundry-list of exhibitions should be shortened to about 5 or 6 of the most prestigious, with an introductory sentence that mentions a selections of the countries where here work has been shown. ✅ - moved to talk page, as the most important ones are already in the article.
 * There is a lot of redundancy in the article that should be cleaned up.
 * Hope that is helpful! Netherzone (talk) 20:06, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Great suggestions! I'm very concerned about the use of Wikipedia's voice. The reference-bombing is a problem that makes it difficult to determine weight and presentation. Some of the terminology seems inworld, some redundant. --Hipal (talk) 20:17, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Looks like at least some of the tags can be removed now that Netherzone has rewritten the article, but ref issue still remains. I updated the tag to reflect the current status of needing to weed out ref bombing and ref reliable sources 174.197.65.199 (talk) 10:10, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Article still requires cleaning up as it has been heavily edited by numerous SPAs and the artist. Please understand that maintenance tags are NOT a badge of shame, they are a way to notify unconnected editors to be aware of these issues, and ultimately are there for article improvement by unconnected editors. I'm also not sure that the "overly detailed" issues are entirely resolved. And the article is still heavily ref-bombed. I'll continue to work on it, but the references need to be gone thru one by one because many of them were being used to supposedly "support" content in the article but did not support the claims that were being made. This takes time. These are all indications of conflict of interest COI. This work takes time and analysis; please be patient. There is no deadline for these improvements to be made.

The major exhibitions should be described in paragraph format with references. 174.197.65.199 (talk) 09:13, 5 October 2023 (UTC)


 * I found a paragraph about exhibitions in a previous version. I checked those refs and re-added those more notable exhibitions in paragraph format under their own section. If you review and think more need to be added or removed, go for it.174.197.65.199 (talk) 09:30, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I strongly suggest proposing changes rather than adding them directly to the article, in order to avoid violating BLP's requirement to get consensus.
 * Please don't add any that don't have an independent, reliable source that meets the standards of BLP. If in doubt, ask here. --Hipal (talk) 17:58, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Here's the summary adapted from a previous version below. It is appropriate to mention key exhibitions for a blp on an artist, and museum publications are reliable sources for exhibitions and collections. Don't want to further ref bomb, strongest source should be selected for each. Would you do that and repost to the article @Hipal?


 * Karle's artworks have been exhibited at: Ars Electronica,  The Centre Pompidou,    FILE Electronic Language International Festival, Mori Art Museum,  Museum of Contemporary Art,   Nova Rio Biennal,  Beijing Media Art Biennale, The Smithsonian Institution,    and the Triennale di Milano.

 * See WP:REFBOMB. Netherzone (talk) 15:14, 8 October 2023 (UTC)


 * 174, thanks but the sources need to be analyzed by an unconnected editor - the content you are asking to be restored is still filled with unacceptable ref-bombing. Netherzone (talk) 13:55, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Entries need removal because their sources are poor, so that won't work. I suggest removing all non-independent sources, and any that are announcements. --Hipal (talk) 16:04, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

Hipal Which sources on this section are non-independent and announcements and need to be removed, and which are blp appropriate to use? 174.198.7.160 (talk) 10:12, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
 * If you don't know, we're not going to make any progress. I've spent far too much time on this already. --Hipal (talk) 17:16, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Hipal has been reverting edits about exhibitions and pointing to discuss it on the talk page however when editors discussed it here on the talk page and asked Hipal to review, Hipal did not offer constructive feedback and instead stated "If you don't know, we're not going to make any progress. I've spent far too much time on this already."
 * Today, I worked on the exhibitions that Hipal has reverted on various occasions. I kept the valid sources and replaced others to ensure that all are independent, removed exhibitions that were poorly sourced, and removed problematic text. Hipal reverted with edit summary "rv exhibits per talk" but added no further mention about it here. Hipal reverted and didn't seem to check it.
 * I suggest that the exhibitions section be thoroughly reviewed by unaffiliated editors as Hipal has shown reluctance in evaluating the sources and providing constructive feedback. It appears that their level of investment in this page may be hindering an objective assessment. The sources need to be analyzed by an unconnected, unaffiliated editors. I also request that Hipal's affiliation with this page be analyzed. 169.229.6.164 (talk) 23:19, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Please follow WP:TALK and WP:FOC.
 * Here's your proposal:

Karle's artworks have been exhibited in Ars Electronica, Austria, Beijing Media Art Biennale, China,  The Centre Pompidou, France,  Mori Art Museum, Japan,  Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, Taiwan, Nova Rio Biennale, Brazil,  The Smithsonian Institution, United States of America,   and the Triennale di Milano, Italy.


 * Could you please explain what changes you made from the 6 Oct version discussed above?
 * I looked it over, found it very similar, and found references that looked too much like announcements. --Hipal (talk) 02:25, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

WiG brief review
Posting in response to the request at WIG. I'm sorry to say that this is far from GA standards at the moment, and promotionalism is the most serious concern. The article needs a complete overhaul, and someone without a connection to the subject should do it. I suggest beginning by identifying sources with intellectually independent content, and using those to frame a brief draft; and then filling in only the most essential biographical detail with other sources. This may require a considerable shortening of the article, but a start-class page that is dispassionately written is far superior to a lengthy puff-piece, which this remains despite the good-faith effort put into it. Pruning will also help with tone issues, which are most obvious in the bits sourced to non-independent sources; but otherwise, I suggest reviewing usage of adjectives and adverbs in particular, and removing all that don't directly contribute to reader understanding.

 * Hello @Vanamonde93, thank you for this, and I agree with you it needs an overhaul, and is nowhere near GA status. @Hipal had pinged me about the COI/promo/advert issues (I had placed the COI tag some time ago), and I began doing some cleaning up today. I wrote up a checklist of items that need work in the section above called Talk:Amy Karle. This checklist is by no means complete. I agree 100% that it would help if the article was pruned back to a short article, and all of the superfluous sourcing/ref-bombing (primary, blogs, press releases, etc.) trimmed. Netherzone (talk) 01:00, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your review @Vanamonde93 and for your checklist and updates @Netherzone. The review process and your checklist are very helpful, as is the information and discussions with the meetup.
 * The article still needs a lot of work and is not ready for a GA nomination next week. Before Netherzone, I had tried to update it to GA standards using Wikipedia guidelines. I made good faith edits to improve, but it seems the article was in too bad of shape before I arrived.
 * I would still like to help improve the article and eventually get it to GA status. Netherzone, I see you referred to a "last good version": [here ] from before COI/promo/advert issues. I'd like to draw from this version to replace some of the removed content. The areas that I would like to review and re-add are the sections on: Residencies, Awards, and "The Heart of Evolution" in the Major Works section, and any other works were included in the "last good version". I'd double check all info, sources, and make any necessary updates before re-adding. What do you think about this? I would appreciate your advice and suggestions. Asking first and proceeding cautiously here since there is a lot going on with this page! LWu22 (talk) 20:45, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * There is no doubt that Karle is an interesting artist, however the article still has several low-quality sources, and primary sources which should be cleaned up, and there is the matter of REFBOMBING to address. The article has a long history of COI editing, PR, promotional/advertorial tone and content. Not all of that is cleaned up. WP policy states that the encyclopedia is not an appropriate place for promotion. See WP:PROMOTION, in particular #4 on Self-promotion, and #5 on Advertising, marketing, publicity, or public relations. It sounds like a lot of what you want to add back belongs on her personal website, not in an encyclopedia article. I would suggest being patient while unconnected volunteer editors proceed with clean up as their time is limited. There is no deadline. Netherzone (talk) 15:46, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
 * The timeframe I referred to is from the edit-a-thon, I was in no way trying to impose that on other editors.
 * The content that I was referring to restoring was from what @Netherzone had referred to as a "last good version" from "before COI/promo/advert issues". From wiki BLP outlines and guidelines it appears that including major artworks, shows, residencies, and awards like how they were included on that "last good version" is standard to describe what the person does and has accomplished as long as they are notable, backed up by non-promotional quality secondary references, and are not in the long list like below. Is that correct?
 * From that version it seems like a big part of the artists way of working is participating in residencies and exhibiting but now that appears to have been completely removed. I would appreciate clarification on if these sections should be included for this and other pages that I edit. I am also an unconnected volunteer editor (feel free to do a checkuser) I don't need to edit this page if you don't want me to. I'd like to understand why these categories are allowed and included on other GA articles of similar people like Neri Oxman but not here when following same rules, and what should be included on articles like both of theirs. For example, there is a large section on Oxman's work as a professor, but not as Karle's work as a resident, though both appear to be a significant part of how they work from sources on them. Thank you in advance for your clarity and not biting the newcomer. LWu22 (talk) 21:11, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I also asked about it here under Good article question to ensure the articles are accurate. I'm working towards GA status overall in all my editing. LWu22 (talk) 21:32, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
