Ways to improve Michael David Kirchmann
[edit]Thanks for creating Michael David Kirchmann.
A New Page Patroller Wugapodes just tagged the page as having some issues to fix, and wrote this note for you:
Thanks for your contribution! While there are many sources in the article, most of them deal with properties rather than Kirchmann himself so more sources significantly covering him, not just mentioning him, would be helpful to establish notability. Similarly, the article focuses heavily on his projects making the article less about him and more about the work (I presume) his company has done.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can reply over here and ping me. Or, for broader editing help, you can talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.
Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

- Thank you for your feedback! I have some additional sources and will look for more that focus on him to round out the article.macgirl (talk) 17:25, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
- @Wugapodes: Hi there--thank you for your feedback. I regret not following up with this article back in November 2018. I was working on other articles of interest and let this one fall through the cracks. I was thinking of ways to improve this article and thought that it may be useful to split the article in two--one for the architect and one for his firm. That way we can use the references that discuss his projects and work in the firm's page and leave all the references that relate to him here. I can go ahead and start this now. Please let me know thoughts. In the meantime, since I'm revising this now, I would like to go ahead and remove the tag. Looking forward to your comments! macgirl (talk) 15:44, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
- I'll look into this later today. Two years is a long time, so it's possible the subject has reached notability. That said, a split is probably not the best option. It may be better to move the page to the name of the firm and have info on the founder as a section. Won't know until I've taken a look. Thanks for getting back to this, and don't worry about the delay since there is no deadline. — Wug·a·po·des 23:11, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
- I'll be honest and say this isn't my area of expertise, so you may want to get more opinions, but I'm satisfied that the subject meets WP:NARCH. Beyond that, I think splitting it is still not a good idea. The problem I had was not that there was mention of the projects, but that they were covered without much focus on the subject. If the content can be phrased in a way that better connects Kirchmann and the projects, I think we'd have a better article than if they were split. You may want to ask for more input at the WP:Teahouse. In general though, the article looks okay and my only note would be to mind WP:NPOV. Biographies can be tough because the line between factual reporting and non-neutral promotion can be thin. Let me know if you have any other problems or need help. — Wug·a·po·des 02:57, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Women in Red 8th Anniversary |
| In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |

Hello Macgirl. The nature of your edits, such as the one you made to DXA Studio, gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being employed (or being compensated in any way) by a person, group, company or organization to promote their interests. Paid advocacy on Wikipedia must be disclosed even if you have not specifically been asked to edit Wikipedia. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.
Paid advocates are strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Macgirl. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Macgirl|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. This, and other architectural firm pages you created. Graywalls (talk) 18:49, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Graywalls. Quick note to say simply that you are mistaken in your assumption. I will respond to your COI accusations in the other post you created. Thank you. macgirl (talk) 20:10, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion
