08:30:19, 29 December 2016 review of submission by 111.69.151.96

[edit]


http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Ken_Clark More information has been added and references adjusted for the article. There was a comment from a reviewer about Ken Clark being a new artist. While this is true for his work in printed digital work his work in the 'art' of design and sculpture goes back many years from the creation of sets and puppets for stop motion to the design and creation of computer generated animation to digital matte painting. Thank you for your time.

Hello, IP address. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. I took a look at your draft and found that there were problems with your use of the {{cite web}} template. I fixed a few of them, but there are still many more that need to be addressed. And without those fixes, it will be difficult for reviewers to assess the quality of your on-line sources. But even after those fixes are made, the draft will offer little more than what can be found on the artist's own web site. You'll still need to address the question of notability and it isn't clear to me how the subject meets any of the criteria set forth in WP:ARTIST. I also note that your draft includes a reference to Wikipedia and YouTube, three citations to the resume of a friend that doesn't mention the subject at all, and at least one citation to a magazine that doesn't include a page number. These are all weak sources and don't help determine notability for the subject. I hope this response has been helpful. NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:48, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to improve the article FLORIAN K. LAWTON Regional Artist with images of his art and a caption image of the artist - How Do I Do This ? The article has been accepted !

Hello, Milo. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. The process for adding images to article can be complex. You might want to start by reading WP:Uploading images, which will offer guidance on the process. But right now, the best way to improve the article is to address the problems that already exist -- the article has numerous and substantial violations of our Manual of Style (inappropriate capitalization and use of italics and bolding) as well as extremely poor formatting of references and a failure to provide page numbers for any of the printed references. I see that a Good Samaritan addressed some of the more egregious problems after the article was published, but there is still a lot more that needs to be done. Frankly, in its current form, the article appears amateurish and it will be a much better use of your time to correct these glaring failures. I hope this response has been helpful.

I have also tagged the article as needing copy-edit. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:19, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
