Proposed deletion of Norges Bygdeungdomslag

edit
 

The deletion of an article you created, Norges Bygdeungdomslag, has been proposed for the following reason:

Appears to be non-notable - can you provide any more sources?

You are welcome to improve the article to meet Wikipedia's quality standards and remove the deletion notice from the article. You may also remove the notice if you disagree with the deletion, though in such cases, further discussion may take place at Articles for deletion, and the article may still be deleted if there is a consensus to do so.

Wikipedia has certain standards for inclusion that all articles must meet. Certain types of article must establish the notability of their subject by asserting its importance or significance. Additionally, since Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, content inappropriate for an encyclopedia, or content that would be more suited to somewhere else (such as a directory or social networking website) is not acceptable. See What Wikipedia is not for the relevant policy. You may wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rune Øygard, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page NOK (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Introduction to Durek Verrett

edit

Hi, you suggested I take a look at WP:LEAD. Thankfully, I am already familiar with it, which is why I originally decided to remove the sensational tidbits that you inserted into the article's lead section. Usually, things included in the lead section should cite reliable sources and include facts that are important to the topic. You cite a Norwegian tabloid and Tatler, for instance, on Verrett's ridiculous claim of foreknowledge of 9/11. In fact, you cite several tabloids in the lead section for a variety of these facts. At the end of the day, Verrett is a convicted criminal with very bizarre beliefs; that much is true. However, Wikipedia's emphasis on a neutral point of view, especially in the lead section, still apply. The lead section should include general biographical facts, including the fact that he's a criminal, not royal, holds widely ridiculed beliefs, etc. But in its current form, the section is obviously formatted to make the article's subject look as silly as possible. Let readers form their own view by reading through the article, and not simply making the case for why he's terrible in the lead section.

This belongs on the article's talk page (without mentioning any users). I suggest we have it in a new section there entitled Lead material. I would like to discuss it, but not here. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 10:34, 9 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, you can open a discussion on the talk page about what to include in the lead. I did not revert your edit in its entirety, but I think you removed too much. For example, his book should clearly be mentioned in the lead. I also believe some of his most widely reported beliefs belong there; this is really what he is known for, apart from his marriage. He promotes his beliefs about vaginas and spirits in his book and in cooperation with Gwyneth Paltrow's business enterprises (that are equally focused on certain female body parts). This is really what he sells. --Sveinkros (talk) 12:29, 10 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
