Improvements needed at article Reza de Wet
Hello, there are several issues with your article Reza de Wet that you should address for the sake of bringing the article into line with the rest of Wikipedia:


 * You have provided no wikilinks (the clickable blue words) to other articles, so yours is a "dead end" in that it cannot lead the reader on to related topics.
 * The article is written like a press release, not like an encyclopedia. Words like "renowned", "festering" etc. are not neutral and dispassionate words. Encyclopedic writing, for better or worse, isn't "fun" and lively, it's very practical and precise, and an article written with "dramatic flair" is simply going to be taken less seriously as a resource.
 * Most importantly, articles about people must demonstrate WP:Notability. That is, not just that someone is interesting/important, but that they have received coverage in academia or media. You must provide WP:Citations to WP:Reliable sources such as newspapers, theatre journals, academic papers, etc. that specifically discuss de Wet and her impact. An article that does not provide such information is subject to WP:Speedy deletion, so this step is mandatory.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please hit the little "Talk" link next to my name, and post on my page requesting help. Thanks for this good start on the article, now let us see it through to the proper polishing. MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:03, 6 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Looking better and better! But please remember to use WP:Edit summaries each time you Save. That way, when someone looks at the History tab they can clearly see what changes were made over time. Also it helps us prevent vandalism if the people doing genuine work label their work so we know their edits were well-intentioned. MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:01, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
