Talk:Bob Almond

Self-promotional
Like the article about Bob Almond's Inkwell Awards, this article has what appear to be severe issues regarding self-promotion, apparent conflict of interest, and other issues, including undue reliance on the apparent creator's own websites as sourcing. I believe User:Particletracker should recuse himself from editing this article. Its issues need to be addressed, which I, and I hope other editors, will volunteer to do when time permits. --Tenebrae (talk) 18:46, 3 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Particletracker and I have both worked to try to bring this article up to standard. Problematic were the Ook Awards, which were referenced only to their fan newsgroup; newsgroups and forums are not allowed as reference, and the Ook Awards have no Wiki article, and a Google search turns up no hits in non-misspelled English. Similarly, the Squiddy Award is linked to an article tagged for no reliable third-party sources, and in a largely unrecognized award that originates with a fan newsgroup.


 * The article also contained a disallowed link to a commercial sales site (a magazine subscription and ordering page), plus some lingering WP:TONE and WP:PEACOCK issues. Raw links were made into embedded links. Citation requests were added. (A GCD link should take care of those.)


 * There is an ongoing discussion at WikiProject Comics about consistency and formatting for comics creators bibliographies, so a non-resume version of the biblio will likely return at some nearby point. -- Tenebrae (talk) 14:57, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
