Contested deletion
This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... (your reason here) --PhotoWizard101 (talk) 15:19, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

I have been updating the page for Marsel van Oosten today. The pieces of text that have been indicated as copied from other websites, is because Marsel van Oosten himself has provided that text to those websites, for them to use. I know, because I'm the wife of Marsel van Oosten. This is also why I indicated the picture of Marsel that I wanted to add to the Wikipedia page as our own work. Because it is. Please contact me the website of Marsel van Oosten to verify that I am indeed the wife of Marsel van Oosten and that no copyright infringements of any sort have been made.

The page has suddenly been decimated to one paragraph, because of the last change made by someone else who thought he had the right to do so. He has also caused the page of Marse van Oosten to be listed for deletion. If the copyright on the photo is the problem, at least change the page back to 3 changes ago, as I have added a lot of external links to ADD credibility to the page with links to publications in news paper and of photography award websites.PhotoWizard101 (talk) 16:10, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

Request to add photo and infobox
I would like to request to add a photo to the biography of Marsel van Oosten and add factual information infobox. This would bring his page in line with other biographies of photographers like Art Wolfe: and Frans Lanting:, two fellow photographers.

The factual infobox suggestion is: (see source for the info)

Not to be used on the WIKI page, but to cite sources:

 * Hi I have added a COI declaration at the top of this page because you declared your relationship to this person on your talk page. An editor will review this request at a later date. If you have any questions please post below or at the help desk. Happy editing! Z1720 (talk) 22:08, 11 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Oppose Amazon, Goodreads, Youtube can't be used to establish WP:V. They are essentially non WP:RS source. Can you please provide sources that verify the person exists. The infobox is really good. The Youtube videos can used in external link, but it needs better sources for a WP:BLP article.   scope_creep Talk  17:00, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I spend now 30 minutes checking sources in English and Dutch. I was not able to find a source for the name of the partner (only for the first name), and therefore removed it from the infobox. For the author and speaker, whereas it is clear that the sibject of the article has published books and has been invited to speak, I was not able to find sources which conform to our definition of reliable sources. I therefore removed these as well and added the rest of the infobox to the page. If sources have been found, this information can always be added to the page later.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:18, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
