Talk:Matthew Glozier

POV
Tagged as not conforming to Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. The article is stuffed with wholehearted praise for the subject. Such wording as "Glozier often provides both a stimulating narrative and a very good synthesis...", "This fine collection of essays...", "impressive range of scholarship...", etc etc is not suitable on Wikipedia.

 * OK, I've tried to fix the language, at least. How well have I done? Dokushobaka (talk) 03:08, 18 November 2009 (UTC)


 * This is an improvement, but I still see the following: "Dr Matthew Glozier has explored thoroughly..."; "...a major scholarly monograph..."; "...shows how military history can be fruitfully integrated..."; and "The strength of Glozier’s books are their broad approach..." These statements are still very biased towards the subject. This is not to say they are untrue, however. It may be that he has thoroughly explored the motivation of expatriate soldier groups, and his book on the Huguenots may indeed be major, but if so, these statements need to be supported with references from third parties. It is not for Wikipedia to say what the strengths of Dr Glozier's work are, as this is opinion not fact, but somebody else may have done so. The quotations from Ryan Pederson and Gen. de la Billiere are good examples of how to do this in a neutral way.  In other words, its best to state simply that he wrote a book on X, and what it deals with factually, then quote what independent sources have said about the book. Have a look through the NPOV tutorial for more pointers. Regards, Jonathan Oldenbuck (talk) 13:47, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

Article should be deleted
This BLP article does not highlight why this person is notable enough to have a wikipedia page. This page seemingly violates WP:SIGNIF. Additionally, it has citation issues (missing, etc). I am marking this page for speedy deletion per wiki policy. ThePorgieBaggins98 (talk) 05:52, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
