[transplanted from User talk:James Brian Ellis]:
Hello James. I've provided three WP:RS references to back up Adam Sherwin stub in good faith, but I'm not sure if he's a non-notable journalist or he qualifies. I'd really appreciate if you manually look into it and let me know. Thank you very much. --Scieberking (talk) 19:12, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hey - I will paste a quote from WP:GNP here:
- The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by their peers or successors.
- The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique.
- The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, which has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
- The person's work either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries, museums or internationally significant libraries.
If you can add a reference about Adam Sherwin to do with any of the above, I will happily remove the speedy deletion tag. The above quote is for articles about journalists. Thanks, James Brian Ellis (talk) 19:19, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, Adam Sherwin has been cited by his peers at The Independent saying "Diary editor Adam Sherwin returns to the newsdesk, where he was formerly media correspondent" and BBC saying "Now a columnist - having left People in the more than capable hands of ex-media correspondent Adam Sherwin - Rifkind gnaws his fist over the pictures from Ascot and, in the process, reveals his editorial policy on the gossip page". I've added both of these web references in the main article, too.
- Thanks for your help, James. --Scieberking (talk) 19:34, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- You're Welcome. I've added a few tags to the top of the article to help you with writing it. Maybe if you have a look at them it could help you improve it. Also, I've added a tag saying it is currently being updated, so people will not edit it whilst you write more about the person. :) James Brian Ellis (talk) 21:54, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
