Talk:Peche Di

Untitled
This is a beginning ("stump") for this article and it is part of a international effort to correct systemic biases within Wikipedia. This student is participating in a university course that is responding to Wikipedia's own call for articles and content that better represents minority groups in history. The page on Peche Di is part of this effort. I respectfully request the page remain so it can be further developed by the editing community. Dalton D. Hird 16:34, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
 * As important as countering systemic bias is, a potential article topic is not granted an exemption from having to meet WP:GNG just because they happen to be a member of a minority group — I can easily, for instance, name you 100+ LGBT people I'd like to start articles about to help increase LGBT representation on Wikipedia (just look at WP:CANQUEER, for example), but for whom the volume of RS coverage needed to actually start the articles just isn't there yet. There's just one source here, the content is delving way outside of that source into information that might have been collected via original research (e.g. an unpublished personal interview with the subject herself) for all that we can properly verify any of it, and the writing tone is skewing in a significantly advertorial rather than encyclopedic direction — and university courses are not exempted from having to follow the same rules about writing tone and no original research, either. Notice as well that I did not flag the article for immediate deletion; I flagged it for the content issues that apply, but left the opportunity open for those issues to be repaired — but it can't be permanently kept if it isn't improved relatively promptly.
