Draft:Arnold Abramson

  • Comment: @Ruddy.T, a large portion of this article seems to have been copied from Abramson's biography on IMDb [1]. Unless you also wrote the entry on IMDb and can prove it, this is a copyright violation and will unfortunately have to be deleted. Toadspike [Talk] 19:36, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: I think he may we Wiki-notable based on the Tony award, however the draft is not ready to be published yet. Every claim in the article needs to be backed up by a reference (a.k.a. a source or citation). It need more independent, secondary references in reliable sources. I will add a ref list to the article to improve the formatting. Please continue to work on the draft, as it is promising. Netherzone (talk) 03:32, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
