Donna Cameron moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Donna Cameron, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. In addition there is a WP:COI or WP:UPE question. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the COI/UPE issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Do not move the article back into mainspace yourself. Onel 5969  TT me 23:49, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

Hey there, thank you for reaching out and notifying me of this change! I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm still learning the ropes of a lot of administrative articles on Wikipedia and would love to learn more about the COI/UPE issue. I have the information needed to make the declarations on it, but I'm unsure where you'd like me to put it. Should I put it here on my own user page, the talk page for my account, or the talk page for the article? Also, many of the citations that were flagged as improper sources are properly cited, is there any way to challenge those edits or should I just delete the callouts? Thank you, looking forward to hearing back from you  Onel 5969  TT me

Hey, I wanted to reach out as I've swept through the Donna Cameron article and have cleaned it up to the best of my ability for WP: PROMO and WP: UNDUE errors per your request. Before I officially resubmit the article for review again, I wanted to talk here to see if there were any further changes you'd like to see in the article. As your feedback was more general and thematic to the articles contents, I want to be sure I didn't miss anything you wanted to call out! Looking forward to getting your thoughts, thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whcohen (talk • contribs) 17:19, 6 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks Whcohen, I'll take a look at the article again. On first glance it seems better.
 * P.S. I did not get your ping because you forgot to sign your comment. –– FormalDude  talk  01:26, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I have a couple concerns, some of which I tagged in the article. I'm not seeing Cameron's date of birth listed anywhere in the given sources. Where did you find that information? It also looks like the status of their patent is expired–is that worth noting? –– FormalDude  talk  01:44, 7 October 2021 (UTC)

Hey, thank you for the quick reply and the constructive feedback here! I'll start searching again for non-primary sources on her academic background. It's easy to pull off her NYU listing but I'm pretty sure there's some kind of reference to it in print somewhere back in the 90s in an external publication. I'll look through my source list again to confirm that birth date, if not I'll start searching through Indiana birth registries for 1951 to see what I can find. As for the patent, from what I've seen her listing and holding of the patent should be active from when I checked last. She's the only artist in the world right now using the tech without royalty so I can't imagine she doesn't still hold it. For safety, I've linked her official USPTO listing instead of the Google Patent source for confirmation. More to come, thank you! Whcohen (talk) 13:41, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
