Your L'Union source
Hi there. I noticed that you recently added a source to Sadou Bah that is purportedly an article about him that was published in L'Union (journal français), titled "La relève du cinéma guinéen a l'international: Sadou Bah". The source was uploaded only to ilovepdf.com, a PDF hosting website, rather than L'Union own website. That was weird to me. So I looked up the article below the one about Sadou Bah, the one titled "Les experts satisfaits de la motivation des participants", and I manage to find it on L'Union website, here. Hmm... the top story is not about Sadou Bah, but rather about CF Mounana and Horoya AC.So from my perspective, it looks like you created a fake article in a French newspaper, uploaded it to a PDF hosting site, and added that fake source to an English Wikipedia article in an attempt to prevent the deletion of Sadou Bah, which you recently created. Do you have any response before I open a report about this at WP:ANI? DanCherek (talk) 19:16, 15 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Comme :
 * Hi, I apologize for the misunderstanding, I couldn’t find the online version but the offline version aka physical journal
 * So I thought it was good to scan it and add as pdf Lsadout52 (talk) 14:27, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

 * In this article about Sadou Bah, I have conducted extensive research and a comprehensive search to provide notable sources from Guinea, Senegal, and France. During my research, I came across high-quality coverage on national television and other media platforms (available on the YouTube channels of these television stations, which cannot be added as links on Wikipedia due to their policies). Have you had a chance to watch them? There are notable coverages on 2stv and a documentary on RTS (Radiodiffusion Télévision Sénégalaise), which I haven't included in the article because they do not meet Wikipedia's eligibility criteria. The television stations in these countries upload their videos on YouTube for replay, so the views increase after the broadcast. However, I am unsure why these national media outlets would be interested in such a subject if it didn't meet the notability criteria.
 * The page is about a Franco-Guinean personality, and national sources from Guinea are only well-known in Guinea or Senegal. There are sources available on Google News and Yahoo. I just found an article published in May 2022, which I wanted to add to the page but my account is blocked. I have been a Wikipedia contributor for 8 years and continuously strive to adhere to the guidelines of proper usage. Lsadout52 (talk) 16:23, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

 * On Commons, you wrote that this subject's facebook, instagram, and youtube accounts are yours. In various now-deleted files uploaded to commons, you wrote that you are the creator and/or license-owner of content from his social-media and other-media publications. DMacks (talk) 16:47, 16 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I'm surprised you have done so much research about this subject and highlighted his acting roles, where he is uncredited without even a character name, but didn't mention his current business selling poultry farming as a digital marketer. And you say he walked catwalks in Paris as a model? And worked for 8 years for large tech companies when he is so young? In one area you say his father is a professor and in his bio it says he was a schoolteacher. I don't think anything you wrote is accurate. I doubt you will ever get unblocked if you only post falsehoods meant to promote the article subject (whom I am sure is you). We can't have editors who don't know the difference between fact and promotional fiction. Liz Read! Talk! 02:42, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
