COI concern

edit

Liz, all of the images in this article, which include both personal family photos and professional quality glamour shots, have been claimed as own work by the article's sole significant contributor. signed, Rosguill talk 19:19, 6 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

The subject himself seems to pass WP:NBIO. The OBE and Ordem do Infante D. Henrique both seem to be confirmed by apparently reliable sources. Less certain about the "Medal of Cultural Merit" (though no reason to doubt it – cn tag added for good housekeeping). True that a thorough copyedit would be in order. Also true that the photos were all uploaded to Commons by the same editor (they are also poorly named and mostly uncategorised), however this seems like something to flag on Commons rather than a criteria for draftifying/deleting the article itself. Also, should a COI tag be added in the place of (or in addition to) the Peacock tag, or is that too aggressive at this stage? -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 11:14, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Dubious claim

edit

The wording "he was decorated by the late Queen Elizabeth II" implies that HRH personally bestowed the award, which seems unlikely for an OBE (there are heaps of OBEs). More likely for a DBE or KBE, though even then, only in very specific instances. (I don't mean to belittle the award itself, which is of course an honour if one subscribes to such things.) -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 20:45, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Photos

@MrMaxHamburg: The photographs used in this article will very likely attract scrutiny on Commons if their attribution is not clear (source/authorship). -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 11:39, 11 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
