Your advice on an AfC submission (copied from north8000 talk page)

[edit]

Hi. Please take a look at Draft:Terje G. Simonsen. It is a properly stated WP:COI contribution about a Norwegian non-fiction author. The article is a translation of a Norwegian Wikipedia article with a bit more sources. The author is a historian and writes about the history of paranormal. Considering your great experience of editing Wikipedia and also the fact that you contributed to Jeffrey Mishlove, I guess that you have a balanced view on the subject and can give me a good and professional advice. Please tell how this article could/should be edited or changed in order to improve the chances of passing an AfC review. Thanks! Peter. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 17:18, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbarmadillo: Happy to. It looks like it was already accepted both for afc and npp. I look like an excellent job on the article based on the available sources. If you wanted to take it to the "next level" regarding article quality and being double safe on wp:notability I search for 1-2 more sources that wrote about him and incorporate that material into the article. Nice work! North8000 (talk) 02:19, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

 Partly done The first requested change has been made. For the second requested change, where would this line be added? It wasn't clear to me. I have marked this request as answered; remove the "|A" in {{request edit}} when you reply to reopen the request for someone to review. Best, SpencerT•C 22:47, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Spencer: Thanks. The phrase about the book should be the last phrase at the "Career" sub section. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 13:50, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Follow-up question-- Why Czech? Is that the only other language besides English that the work has been published into? (Versus if it's one of 10 languages), better to list the overall number in my opinion. SpencerT•C 23:01, 6 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
