Your edit on Toluwani Obayan Osibe

Hey buddy @Thenkemka Thanks for your edit on Toluwani Obayan Osibe Please revise the page to eliminate promotional language. I've been working to improve it so that another editor doesn't place a speedy deletion tag , but your recent edits have included unnecessary changes and overly promotional terms. It’s important to avoid such language to prevent further issues with another editor. Thank you. Afro 📢Talk! 09:33, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thank you! I've tried to follow through as you've directed. Still a bit new at this. Also worked on adding more reliable citations. Any thoughts? Thenkemka (talk) 10:06, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hello @Thenkemka

"I recommend practicing in your WP:SANDBOX and becoming more familiar with WP:GUIDELINE, such as WP:GNG and WP:BIO (Biographies of Living Persons). For reliable sources on Nigerian topics, consider checking WP:NAIJARS for guidance. Although I’m not from Nigeria, I have worked on several Nigerian-related articles, and I believe those sources are generally considered reliable.

To avoid using peacock words in your writing, try these tips or please read MOS:WTW

Focus on Facts: Use verifiable information rather than subjective praise to describe the subject. Instead of saying “groundbreaking” or “exceptional,” specify what the subject did or achieved.
Be Objective: Avoid terms that convey personal judgment. For instance, replace phrases like “world-renowned” with details about why the person or topic is notable according to Wikipedia guidelines.
Use Reliable Sources: Citing trustworthy sources helps keep statements grounded in facts rather than opinions.
Rephrase with Neutral Language: Whenever you find an enthusiastic word, think of a straightforward replacement. For instance, instead of “incredible success,” use “well-received” or “commercially successful”.

@Thenkemka I’ll try to work on the article in my free time, as it needs a lot of cleanup. Afro 📢Talk! 16:45, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much! Thenkemka (talk) 16:46, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Thenkemka "I have moved the page from Toluwani Obayan Osibe to Toluwani Obayan due to a name conflict, under the guidelines of an undiscussed move (WP:RMUM). Please avoid performing any further moves. If a move is necessary, kindly use WP:RM to request it." Afro 📢Talk! 17:04, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How can this be rectified please? Her legal name is now Toluwani Obayan Osibe and this reflects in recent articles on Nollywood screenwriters, IMDB and in government documents. She legally changed her name when she got married. Thenkemka (talk) 17:32, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Thenkemka "I don't believe a name change is necessary. For example, when Mercy Johnson married and took her husband's last name, 'Okojie,' we didn't change her page title to 'Mercy Johnson Okojie.' The original name remains recognizable and appropriate for continuity." we can include Toluwani Obayan Osibe on the article while editing. Afro 📢Talk! 17:49, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
