Valentina Igoshina
Hi Gene. I'm just writing to you about the article Valentina Igoshina which you've been working on. I can see that you've been working hard on it and have the best of intentions, but I've had to start rewriting it because it was not compliant with Wikipedia's policies on article content generally and specifically, and most importantly, on biographies of living persons policy. Here on the English Wikipedia, we're writing original but sourced and verifiable articles, not just pasting together quotes from other articles. And the biographies of living people policy requires high quality sourcing for information about living people, this is really very important here and if information about people is not adequately sourced, it can be removed. I plan to do more work on this article and I have downloaded all the articles Factiva have archived on her so will continue trying to source information properly, but I ask, if you will be continuing to edit the page, that you follow the referencing and cite sources for any information you add, also if you have sources for the items currently tagged with citation needed tags, you can replace those tags with actual sources. However, please do not add back in those music reviews as it's just not Wikipedia is for. The article needs to be neutral in tone and in content and having 2/3s of the article being slabs of reviews praising how wonderful she is violates the NPOV policcy. It's also very important to use neutral language when describing her. Thanks Gene and welcome to Wikipedia. Sarah 05:21, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
