- Thanks for the heads up! And I appreciate the effort made to dig up more authoritative sources to bolster this page. She started a lot of things in the underground scene that many many would effectively take credit for. I believe she’s deserving of a page, but (of course) claims need to be referenced. All good. Thanks again. Giacomo1968 (talk) 03:01, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Giacomo1968!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:03, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

- Thanks for clarifying the process! Since a current page doesn’t exist, I guess a redirect can’t really happen. Appreciate the clarity, though. --Giacomo1968 (talk) 00:29, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

User page
[edit]As you know, your user page contained the text of Frank O'Hara's "Personal Poem". I have not been able to find any evidence that it is either in the public domain or licensed for reuse in terms consistent with Wikipedia's Copyright terms, so I have deleted it. If in fact itvis freely licensed, and you have proof of that fact, please let me know, and I will restore it. JBW (talk) 10:47, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
Please ignore that. It seems that I was probably mistaken, so I shall restore the page. JBW (talk) 10:53, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
