Your submission at Articles for creation: Bloody Margaret (May 16)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by David.moreno72 was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Bloody Margaret and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Bloody Margaret, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Roseanne Barr, you may be blocked from editing. MissTofATX (talk) 21:09, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It was a stupid joke, that was perceived as racist. You can not categorically 100% with any degree of certainty say that is what Roseanne intended. It was not meant to detract from the overtones of the crass remark, just to make the article less partisan and more objective.

The event was widely seen as "racist" and it has been discussed on the talk page. Since this is a WP:BLP biography of a living person, we, as editors are only supposed to include things that are well known/widely accepted as facts. We are not called upon to interpret intentions of the person. MissTofATX (talk) 19:16, 5 June 2018 (UTC)MissTofATX[reply]

Discussions you may be interested in on Roseanne Page[edit]

Just a friendly FYI: there are several conversations going on now about the treatment of the tweet, including the use of “allegedly” I think someone pinged you in it, but I’m a newer editor as well and not totally sure about how “pings” work. Just wanted to make you got ping/ or are aware in case you wanted to participate in discussion and survey.

I may have disagreed with with your opinion in this scenario, but I believe everyone should have the opportunity to be heard and stand up and have their vote be counted.

I hope I’m including the links correctly (If it does, it would take you directly to page an section Talk:Roseanne Barr#“Allegedly” racist....works like wiki, click pencil to edit section at the bottom.

All I wanted to impart was that whilst no one could deny it was in bad taste, it's become clear the woman believed she was making a dumb superficial comparison aesthetically between a woman she thought was caucasian and a fictional film character. The fallout from this alone is bad enough - but there is more than enough evidence in the show itself over the run that RB is not racist, per se. She may have a bonkers Twitter account but there are millions of those. I thought Wikipedia was meant to be more objective and less partisan in its content, that was all. Balanced. Non-judgmental. Based on objective "fact", not popular opinion/perception. But then ASD makes me over-literal and more concerned with impartiality than some.
