Lulu Wang[edit]

Hello Cleyntje, and welcome to Wikipedia. If you wish to make changes to the article on Lulu Wang, you must provide precise independent reliable-source citations for each item that you add or change. See Wikipedia:Citing sources. Right now all of the information is cited with reliable references, so any changes to that should be cited and explained -- the explanation can be on the article's Talk page, or in your edit summary (by the way, you should provide an edit summary for every edit you make to Wikipedia).

If you need to discuss matters or ask questions, please do so on the article's Talk page, and remeber to sign your posts by using four tildes (~~~~), which makes your username show up.

Lastly, I highly recommend enlisting the help of the user who created the article, Drmies, who is a native Dutchman, speaks Dutch, and is an adminstrator on English Wikipedia. I'm sure he would be happy to help you in any way possible. The best way to contact him is on his Talk page, by clicking "new section" at the top of that page. Again, welcome to Wikipedia.

Wikpedia etiquette[edit]

Hello again Cleyntje. Please read or re-read all of the information above and please familiarize yourself with English Wikipedia policies. Please communicate on Wikipedia, not via email. If you have any problems, please contact Drmies, on his Talk page, as we have suggested above, or post your questions/requests on the Talk page of the article and gain WP:CONSENSUS before re-adding material that has been challenged or removed or that is counter to Wikipedia policies. Please also realize that if you are acting on behalf of Lulu Wang, you have a conflict of interest and need to be very careful. In point of fact, you should ideally be requesting the edits on the article's Talk page instead of making them directly. Thank you. Softlavender (talk) 10:35, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Softlavender,

I've asked Drmies more than 1 time in a conversation with him to help me with the changes, or to view them before I post them.

But he suggested I post them and if it was not ok he would correct it. But you're immediately change things, so there's no time for him to make a better suggestion if I place content that is not completely in line with the rules.

About the youtube channel: it's not with illegal content and the link is also accepted on the Dutch wiki so I don't understand all the fuss.

If youtube discovers illegal content it will be removed by youtube. I cannot provide a source for that, youtube is the source. I have placed all of the videos on L. Wang's youtube (or most of them) and she has written permission to use them. Most of the bookfilms are mine actually, so for that part I am the source.

Hello, you really need to be having this conversation on the article's Talk page, and you must learn to use, and must be willing to abide by, English Wikipedia's policies, guidelines, and best practices. Please read the abundant information provided to you above and in edit summaries. Please sign your Talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). Your say-so does not make it OK to add a promotional YouTube channel with copyrighted videos. You need to gain consensus on Talk:Lulu Wang to re-create any edit or addition that has been challenged or removed. Please read WP:BRD, which explains this. If instead you edit war on Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Softlavender (talk) 11:25, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Cleyntje, hello Softlavender. I just looked at all the edits, and I have to agree with Softlavender, who kindly added the claim about the translations, with a reference (not a great secondary one, but better than no reference--and it's better than simply inserting it as if the given reference supports it, which it doesn't). The point about the YouTube channel is well taken. Just because something is on someone's YouTube channel doesn't mean that person owns the copyright. YouTube doesn't care much, but we do: we cannot link to copyright violations, and if something is from EO radio, I wonder whose copyright it is. But besides that, WP:EL is quite clear: basically, one link per subject. Now, the COI is noted, and that needn't be a problem, as long as edits are neutral and well-verified. The previous edits were not verified--"easily found on the internet" is not good enough, I'm afraid. Feel free to ping me, Cleyntje, if you have any questions--by typing [[User:Drmies]] in a message here (don't forget to sign or it won't work). Thank you both, Drmies (talk) 16:42, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
