Hi ABA888: a quick note from my job; Hafspajen asked me to take a look and see if I could explain our ways a little bit. I will look at the article and the sources later today. Basically, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so it should as far as possible contain only information that other reliable sources (newspapers, books by reputable publishers, TV news, reputable websites ... ) have reported on. (More about how we define reliable sources) We use "primary sources" - such as someone's own official website or curriculum vitae at their place of employment - as little as possible, and only for life details such as date of birth. For academics, writers and researchers, we do not list all publications, only those for which there is a reference in one or more reliable sources citing it as important. And as far as possible we provide references to these sources so that the reader can verify the information and read more if they wish - this is particularly important when reporting an opinion, which should normally be in the form of a quotation or at least attributed to the person who stated it. (More on verifiability). Foreign-language sources are fine, although it is a good idea to translate the most important phrases in the footnote. Offline sources or sources requiring subscriptions are also fine, but full information should be given so that the reader can check in a library if they want to. I hope that begins to help. The welcome template above has links to more information. Now unfortunately I must pack up my laptop. Yngvadottir (talk) 14:30, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

--Reporting that I have now edited the article, including adding some of the references that Hafspajen listed on the talk page and some newspaper articles that I found myself. This enabled me to expand it a bit, and I fixed a few of the links to other Wikipedia articles and added some. Unfortunately I have almost no science education, so the section on his research is full of red links. Now: what independent references can you add, and have any inaccuracies crept in; and can you fix any names of red-linked educational institutions (the easiest way is often to find them on Russian Wikipedia under their new names and see what English Wikipedia article is linked in the interwiki listing on the bottom left). I hope my re-expansion and the way I've used and footnoted the references helps you to see what the conventions are. Yngvadottir (talk) 17:51, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]


  • the so called - Secondary sources - means in Wiki-language - that somebody else wrote about him, preferably a big newspaper, like New York Times, and so on. Maybe scientific papers or publications in scientific papers and big newspapers could do too. The reason why our administrators didn't think the sources were walid, it was because it was his own publications - and those are not regarded as valid sources. It has to be otheres who comfirm that he is famous, he can't do that himself. Right now, in this case - this sounds a bit silly, I admit. Hafspajen (talk) 21:36, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks you and your friends for your help in writing the article about well-known scientist and human right activist Alexander Bolonkin. I am very gratefull for this.

I have only two small remarks:

2) If it is possible, could you please insert some of his well-known scientific monographies (books) and articles published in famous publishing houses and scientific journals, for example (some of the 250 published scientific articles and books):

Monographies (in English):

Dear Boris, I KNOW about Alexander Bolonkin, he is a great scientist. Boris, now listen, you know - I need something else too. Because he IS a great scientist, OTHER people MUST HAVE WRITTEN books and articles ABOUT HIM: I need those. This is a stupid Wikipedia Rule.
  • Other peoples articles is what I need, more of them. Other peoples articles about HIM, that is what I need. You please find articles and books about Alexander Bolonkin.

Try to find articles from New York Times, USA Today, Le Monde; from Reuters, The Washington Post, Daily News, New York Post, Die Welt, International Herald Tribune, The Times, The Boston Globe, Daily Mail, The Herald, The Independent, Daily Star, The Sun, Newsday ... do you understand? Anything from a newspaper would be very good. .... Hafspajen (talk) 08:37, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Russian newspapers are also fine! If Bolonkin was awarded 3 times the Research Associateships by National Research Council of the USA National Academies (one time NASA and 2 times Air Force Research Laboratory) I imagine that it has to be mentioned SOMEWHERE, no?
