Bob Harper aka Robert Harper article creation rejected - need help
Ex, I just had an article rejected. Working on this for my boss, Articles for creation/BobHarper. One of the film's he produced has its own Wiki page, he is listed in the box on the right as a producer, yet when you click on his name, you are redirected to several people who are NOT him. I was hoping to create an article about him so that when a user clicked on his name from the "Rookie of the Year (film)" wiki page, they'd actually get accurate information about him, it's producer. Not an unreasonable request I believe. I'd also like to link him to several other films and projects he's involved with which also already have their own wiki pages. I'm not sure why we were rejected, but would love to correct this if possible. Other documentation I can provide about his early career was written the old-fashioned way in print from Variety and the Hollywood Reporter (reputable sources), but such articles are not online, thus no easy URL's to direct people to. Any help would be appreciated on how to get this article approved. Many thanks, Joanne Sala. joanne.sala@fox.com — Preceding unsigned comment added by JoanneSala (talk • contribs) 19:14, 21 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Hiyas Joanna,


 * Before anything else I'm obliged to point you to the conflict of interest policy, since you state that you are working for the subject of the article (And at his behest as well). Having said that the article is not nearly as biased or spammy as some other pages created by involved people; just be careful that the article stays neutral in tone and doesn't change into a "Laurel and praise" article.


 * On to the article itself. Any article on Wikipedia must have reliable sources that can be used to verify the article's content. Since anyone can submit content you can never be sure if what is written is true, so an external, reliable source is used to back up what is stated. The verifiability policy is especially strong for article's that describe living persons (Called the BLP, or "Biography of living persons" policy), since incorrect biographical content can have serious repercussions for the person in question (More so then a random incorrect date in an article describing a war 6 centuries ago).


 * As for the sources you mentioned, any source that is considered reliable is a welcome inclusion. While some older sources such as magazines might not be available online, they are still a valid source for an article. While it is indeed more difficult to look them up there IS a pointer to a location where the information came from, which is what matters. Just make sure that you limited the article's content to what these sources state - in BLP's all the content should be traceable in the reliable sources. If you need a hand with references, have a look at WP:REFB for an example on how you can cite references on Wikipedia. Excirial ( Contact me, Contribs ) 21:24, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
