Michael Gruenbaum moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Michael Gruenbaum, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) 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 "Draft:" 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, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Information icon Hello, Placscrib. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Thanks for prompt response

Editor Noah had sent me a list of our citations and said we needed 3 citations that were substantial (not passing mentions), weren’t primary and were in established news outlets, and Noah said that we already had 2 good ones. I thought the four we just added would cover it. Is it possible to tell me what is wrong with the four we just added? Or maybe you disagree with Noah on the two he liked?

Those two “good” ones were:

Thanks very much Placscrib (talk) 16:59, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Placscrib. Could you explain if you have a conflict of interest with respect to this article? For example if the subject is a relative, that would be a conflict.--- Possibly (talk) 23:50, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Michael is my father. I see now that I was not supposed to submit this article - sorry for that error. How can we best proceed, in the case that another contributor wants to put up a page for him? I mean can someone unrelated to him create a "Michael Gruenbaum" page with this draft still active? Thanks for your advice - I understand that I am biased, but I still believe he is a figure worthy of a wikipedia page. Placscrib (talk) 18:40, 6 September 2021 (UTC)--[reply]
