Talk:Harringay Online

Article Style
Article wasn't actually meant to be written as an ad, but I took your point and have rewritten. Please help me if it's still not right and tell me where it's straying from what's permitted. Many thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by hjuk (talk • contribs)


 * Hi- thanks for the mild rewrite. I still have a couple of concerns. First, everything written is very positive and from the point of the website. Are you affiliated with Harringay Online? (I'm assuming so). If so, please announce it, and read WP:COI carefully. It's okay if you are, but you need to be extra-careful with your coverage of the article.
 * Second, the advert tag. Read WP:NPOV. It's a long article, but applies. It's a core of Wikipedia. With that in mind, read the subsection about advertisements masquerading as articles. In order to keep this article from being seen as an advertisement, it really needs to have a more neutral point of view.
 * Finally, notability. See the article on notability of websites. This article may qualify by winning an award. However, the award doesn't appear to be notable, so it may not help. Don't be surprised if an editor comes along and challenges the notability of this article. Your best bet is to find reliable sources that cover the Harringay Online website. That will actually help with the NPOV and COI issues, as they can help give you material to cover it in a more neutral manner, with citations to back that up.

 * Thanks I'll read the links you've added. As far as notability is concerned, the awards were presented by the Prime Minister at a ceremony with two other ministers present. The Government certainly see it as notable - if that counts. The research published by LGEO is completely independent of the site. The site is also written up on the (similarly independent!) European Union's Best Practice Website. There are lots of other web refs, but I thought they wouldn't add to the informative nature of the article.


 * Re COI - yes I am involved with the website. But (perhaps not relevant) it's non-commercial. Secondly, my motivation isn't to promote the site, it's to add to a comprehensive set of information on Harringay along with the other articles I've written.


 * Any suggestions as to how I can make the article less positive? I tried not to make any subjective judgements and in my last rewrite to adjust any language that might have sounded like spin.

refimprove
This article was recently the subject of a lengthy debate by a number of admins at Articles for deletion/Harringay Online where its notabilty and references were debated and a consensus opinion reached. For this reason I am propose removing the refimprove template. hjuk (talk) 18:51, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The article has no footnotes, that cannot be disputed. As a consequence of that, its impossible to tell which information is referenced, and which is unreferenced, hence the need for the refimprove tag. Jeni  ( talk ) 18:57, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Right Jeni. That's done. Thanks for your help improving this article. hjuk (talk) 19:18, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
