Ruth Landers
Hello! Thanks for starting a page on Ruth Landers - its shaping up nicely. However, IMDB can't be used as a reference as it is user-generated content, so you'll need to remove those references. You also need to make sure that every sentence in the main paragraphs has a reference supporting the statements there. There's also quite a lot about her personal life - that is detailed, but it doesn't demonstrate why she is significant enough to be included in an encyclopaedia. You could find out more about her modelling achievements and add them, you need to discuss her work as a producer, as that's what's really significant isn't it? Please expand her career further.

 * Hey! So I think you might be struggling a bit with sources? I searched for "ruth landers film" on Google Books, and got these hits, which will help your draft - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Sources have to secondary - so not written by a person related to the subject (e.g. not their website) - and they have to be reliable (e.g. from books or academic articles or reputable news outlets). This source is a mirror of the German Wikipedia - if you look where its infomation is from e.g. IMDB, these aren't sources that are seen as reliable by the English Wikipedia community asthey are crowd-sourced. That also goes for Amazon. You can't use German Wikipedia either - different Wikipedias have different rules and what might be acceptable in one language, might not be in another. However, don't be disheartened - my suggestion (because you've picked a tricky subject) would be to focus on building what we call a short stub page. These are typically a few sentences, but use multiple references. Here are two examples I started recently: Esther Bernabela and Hala Badri. Read those and look at how they are set up. With the six sources above, that should be enough to demonstrate notability. You'll want to write something along the lines of "X is a ...", "They specialise in ...","They collaborate with [mention daughters here?]" and so on. You can keep the filmography list, but I'd just use title and year. Also the citation number goes at the end of each sentence. Hope this helps! Lajmmoore (talk) 08:18, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello Lucy, thank you for your respone. Do you think I should pick a different person to write my wikipedia entry on as I am really struggling with the sources on this one. Alfys23 (talk) 14:25, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
