Regina Frank
I have moved this article to Draft:Regina Frank because it is not yet ready for mainspace. I believe the subject is notable enough for an article, but there are two things that will have to be addressed before the article can be published:

- If the article subject is Regina Frank, then that should be the article title, not something else. - The article needs lots of references - this is particularly crucial for articles about living people (see WP:BLP). At the moment it has none. Please provide sources with inline references for all statements. If you are not conversant with referencing, see WP:Referencing for Beginners.

When you believe these issues have been addressed, please submit the draft to WP:AfC, where it will be assessed and moved into mainspace. Cheers -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 18:35, 15 March 2018 (UTC)


 * , sorry, that didn't sort it out at all. I have moved the article back into draft space. What is primarily needed is neither wikilinks (though those are useful) nor external links (which should not be integrated into the actual text, and I will remove them in a minute), but inline references. To grab at random Anne_Frank - see the little blue numbers in uppercase after each statement? These reference specific sources that contain this bit of information, and this needs to be provided for every statement (or contiguous block of statements, such as a paragraph or section) in the article. Please do read the link given above - WP:Referencing for Beginners - which lays out the process in detail. Thorough referencing is particularly important for biographies of living persons, and is strictly required and checked for in such articles.

Regina Frank moved back to draftspace...
Thank you, that is excellent sourcing - actually you've gone a little overboard, particularly in the lede (but too much is way easier to remedy than too little :) However that pertains only to the parts of the article where you DID insert references. The entire "Career" section is still unsourced, and needs sources as well. Sorry about that; but large articles on well-covered personalities tend to have huge reference sections, and the attendant amount of work... Elmidae (talk · contribs) 09:05, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Done :)
Thank you, that sure seemed like a lot of work! There's a certain amount of prettifying still to be done, but I think that can be safely left to the community at large (unless you feel inspired to do some yourself - see cleanup tag). Cheers -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 08:01, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * BTW, I have turned The Artist Is Present into a disambiguation page so the term can lead readers either to Frank or Abramović. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 08:09, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


 * , why did you move the article back to draft space? With the current sourcing it is clearly ready for mainspace. The remaining cleanup is nothing that invalidates it, and is exactly the kind of thing that some volunteer will carry out over time. In fact, I am reasonably certain that at this point you should not remove the article from mainspace, because this now constitutes removal of valid sourced encyclopedia content. Can you please comment? -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 09:59, 29 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Please DON'T keep moving this into draft now. There is absolutely no difference in editability between draft and article space; if you lost your edits, it was for some other reason. Shuffling it back and forth between spaces will now do nothing but inhibit work by other people who might want to aid in fixing the remaining issues. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 15:26, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
