Arbitrary heading

edit

Hi, I have tagged this as an Advert because it appears to be mainly self-promotional/CV-like material. 192.76.8.82 (talk) 07:41, 3 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi, thanks for your comments. It has been selected as "Did You Know" twice. What sounds like a self-promotion? What do you mean by 'CV material'? How is it not 'notable'? Thanks Jesswade88 (talk) 20:06, 9 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Shard

edit

We say She spent six years working on the tallest building in Western Europe, the Shard, designing the foundations and the iconic spire. It is possible, although I think unlikely, that she was indeed the sole designer of the foundations and spire. However, the claim is sourced to herself and that is not acceptable. Extraordinary claims need rock-solid independent sources. The statement needs to be either better-sourced, rephrased to simply say she worked on the project (as did many other people), or removed.

I rather think there are other problematic aspects to this article, not least what the anon said above last February. That something gets through DYK means little because the bar there is very low. - Sitush (talk) 13:37, 5 February 2019 (UTC) ) That sentence is also a copyright violation, as I suspect may be some others. - Sitush (talk) 14:43, 5 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Eg: As a writer, Agrawal is represented by Bloomsbury Publishing. The source does not say that at all. Anyone with clue would know that there are usually agents between authors and publishers, so unless we have a source that specifically says Bloomsbury acts as her representative, they do not. Instead, they are the publisher of that book. This sort of thing is sloppy, sorry. - Sitush (talk) 13:43, 5 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
