Untitled

I placed both a non-notability and speedy deletions templates on this page. If that procedure is incorrect, I apologize in advance. In any case, despite the page being well-written, if one examines the criteria of notability for a creative professional [1] such as Mr. Noronha, it is pretty clear that he fails all of them, as his works have appeared mostly or exclusively in minor online publications. A Google search on Mr. Noronha brings up his the Wikipedia article on him, his accounts in various social media sites, and little else. In addition, he was a significant contributor to his own page. While I am not sure if that is disallowed or considered unethical, it does nothing to strengthen his case. I offer my regrets to Mr. Noronha, but at present he is objectively non-notable.Wfgiuliano (talk) 04:18, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I on freindly terms with Frederick Noronha FN for long time, he was nice journo for long, but FN Frederick Noronha has not been active as journalist for more than 24 months.

COI tag (January 2025)

Article was created by a close external associate of the subject, see [2] Rejoy²⁰⁰³(talk) 08:53, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Rejoy2003 Not that I agree, but since you have placed the tag on the page, it is also your duty to point out which of the content is problematic. See Template:COI for details. If there is no sufficient proof of "problematic" content, then it does not really count as a COI (even if your allegations are true). SerChevalerie (talk) 13:44, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Per Template:COI:

if you place this tag, you should promptly start a discussion on the article's talk page to explain what is non-neutral about the article. If you do not start a discussion, any editor will be justified in removing the tag without warning. Be careful not to violate the policy against WP:OUTING users who have not publicly self-disclosed their identities on the English Wikipedia. SerChevalerie (talk) 13:50, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Rejoy2003, as highlighted above, I can remove the tag if there's no sufficient proof of problematic content. These tags are not meant to stay there forever, they are only meant to highlight to other editors in case there are issues with the page, which you have not sufficiently highlighted yet. SerChevalerie (talk) 06:11, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SerChevalerie don't just read half information that is available. If you paid much attention, just scroll below the page and you'll find that This tag may be removed by editors who do not have a conflict of interest. So NO you cannot remove this tag. Rejoy²⁰⁰³(talk) 06:17, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Rejoy2003 please read further then: In order to be tagged, the article should have a specific, articulatable, fixable problem. Do not apply this tag simply because you suspect COI editing, or because there is or was a COI editor. Please highlight the same so that it can be fixed, else this tag can be removed by anyone, including me, the accused COI editor. SerChevalerie (talk) 06:22, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SerChevalerie no you can't, they didn't mention "accused COI editor". Only a sound third party editor and nor your Wiki friends can remove this tag. Best in this case is an admin. Rejoy²⁰⁰³(talk) 06:24, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Rejoy2003:

When to remove

This tag may be removed by editors who do not have a conflict of interest after the problem is resolved, if the problem is not explained on the article's talk page, and/or if no current attempts to resolve the problem can be found.

Your only explanation is that there is a possible COI. Please highlight the actual issues on the page if you would like them to be addressed. Thanks. SerChevalerie (talk) 06:29, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SerChevalerie in any case, YOU STILL CANNOT remove the tag. I can also see some kind of autobiography issues. Like I said before, let an uninvolved editor handle this. Rejoy²⁰⁰³(talk) 07:29, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Rejoy2003 As per Template:COI, please highlight the actual issues here in this discussion, else anyone can delete the tag. I am willing to wait for a detailed explanation before deleting the tag. Thanks. SerChevalerie (talk) 07:32, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SerChevalerie I don't know if English is your first language, but like I said you cannot remove this tag under no means. As uou're COI editor. Rejoy²⁰⁰³(talk) 07:34, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Rejoy2003, I apologise if I am upsetting you for you to resort to WP:ADHOMINEM, but I have already highlighted the relevant sections of Template:COI:

if you place this tag, you should promptly start a discussion on the article's talk page to explain what is non-neutral about the article. If you do not start a discussion, any editor will be justified in removing the tag without warning.
When to remove : This tag may be removed by editors who do not have a conflict of interest after the problem is resolved, if the problem is not explained on the article's talk page, and/or if no current attempts to resolve the problem can be found.

Please engage in the discussion and help point out the problematic content so that we may work on resolving the issues together. As I said, these templates are meant to be resolved, not to be kept there forever:

In order to be tagged, the article should have a specific, articulatable, fixable problem. Do not apply this tag simply because you suspect COI editing, or because there is or was a COI editor. SerChevalerie (talk) 08:00, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
