Hello @CASSIOPEIA:, thank you for your helpful comments. I have a question concerning the needed citations for Draft:Bernard Michael Gilroy: All information that requires citation can be found on the external website that is linked. To solve the citation issue, should I insert this link where it says "citation needed"? Kind regards MatkinsUPB (talk) 08:26, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi MatkinsUPB, Good afternoon. You need to provide "inline citation". See point 5 & 6 above. What you could do is click "cite" button on the menu bar, and fill in the fields as per Template: cite web. Try to do it, and leave message to me here or on the edit summary (if a short one) and I will asist accordingly. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA^(talk) 08:30, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi @CASSIOPEIA:, thank you for your support! I inserted the citations and previously also the authority control information for the person

Draft:Bernard Michael Gilroy. Best regards, MatkinsUPB (talk) 09:25, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi MatkinsUPB, I saw. However, you need to rework again as for the below reason.

1. The source need to "directly support" the content - which the source does not support some of the content. For example "Bernard Michael Gilroy attended Roselle Park Elementary School in New Jersey, USA from 1961 to 1970 before attending Roselle Park High School until 1974." The source does not indicate that.

2. You have the primary source instead of "independent and reliable source" see point point 1 and 2 above. You need to get source from newspaper, review, and other source besides only the university web site. (note: Wiki EN works differently then Wiki GE, as EN are a lot more strict in such a manner).

Let me know if you need further clarification. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA^(talk) 09:33, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi @CASSIOPEIA:, please check the citations again. I can't find another source for the information that still contains the [citation needed] template. The other citations should fulfil the requirements, please check. I saw, however, that the page of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stone, for example, does not contain sources for similar information as that before the [citation needed] templates in my draft. In relation to that, I hope the information in my draft can be accepted with the university website as a source. I would be grateful for a comment on this. Thank you for your help.

Hi Matkins UPB, Good afternoon, I have checked and see below :

• I have fixed up the ISBN wiki code - use {{ instead of [[
• I have removed one of the sources as it does not "directly" support the content (no mention of the subject name but only the program).
• Unsourced content, especially on living person will be challenged and removed from the page by any editors, and when it is removed you have nothing to justify to restore it. This would apply to Richard Stone. I inserted "citation needed" tags and please insert the source when it is available to you.
• The sources/referees you provide are all primary, which would subject to challenge as "independent, reliable source is the requirements/guidelines in Wikipedia. However to say that, the "Authority control" do show good amount of publications from Mr Gilroy and he has also published 3 books, it might enough to save the page from deletion if it happens to be PRODed (propose for deletion) in the future.

I have reviewed it and now the page is in the main space Bernard Michael Gilroy . Other Wikipedians would come along in the near future to work on the assessment and help out in other areas (such as categories). Let me know if you need any help and leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for the contribution and happy editing. CASSIOPEIA^(talk) 10:44, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
