Hello! I'm confused as to which part is flagged as copyrighted? I've cited all of the parts that are quoted from news articles. Is that not allowed at all, even if cited? Nicoledonawho (talk) 22:04, 6 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I also included links from the American Historical Association and the Chronicle of Higher Education. Are these not sufficient? What is the numerical threshold someone has to meet for citations? Nicoledonawho (talk) 01:41, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Nicoledonawho. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Historians at the Movies, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.

Having a COI does not preclude you from continuing to work on and submitting the draft, in fact I encourage to do so, but if you are affiliated, you do need to make the appropriate declaration as instructed above. No need for details about how/why or revealing any personal information. If you have questions or need help, you can ask at the Teahouse. I will also keep an eye on your talk page for the next day to two in case you post something here. S0091 (talk) 18:42, 15 December 2023 (UTC) S0091 (talk) 18:42, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest

[edit]

I was a co-guest host on one podcast episode of the HATM podcast nearly a year ago. Other than that, I'm a professional historian with a very good sense of objectivity. I don't have any other "conflict of interest" that would impact this article. 2600:1702:5220:FB10:8DCE:E96D:623F:A2FD (talk) 18:50, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You do have a conflict of interest if you hosted the podcast so please make the declaration on your User page. It's simple; just copy and paste {{UserboxCOI|Historians at the Movies}} to User:Nicoledonawho, then click publish. I also encourage you to log-in because IP addresses can reveal personal data and can make communication difficult. S0091 (talk) 19:07, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Primary/Secondary Source

[edit]

I keep getting messages that say the articles I'm using are "primary sources." But as a professional historian, I think y'all are either confused about what a primary source is, or making up your own definition of a primary source that makes entirely zero sense. I've got articles written by the New York Times, the New Yorker, the American Historical Association, and the Chronicle of Higher Education - none of which were written by Mr. Herbert. If you're going to discount a source as secondary because it was about someone, then you're doing a significant amount to diminish the agency of the person who wrote it and the editors who approved it. Nicoledonawho (talk) 19:14, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I will take a look at the draft tomorrow unless another reviewer picks it up before I do but note primary sources also includes interviews/comments from those affiliated. Please do read primary including the notes along with independent and you may find this essay about interviews helpful. Again, it is not that they can't be used and sometimes are the best sources but care is required and they don't contribute to notability. In order for a source to contribute to notability, it needs to meet all four criteria: reliable, secondary, independent and cover the topic directly and in-depth (meaning at least a couple paragraphs or so of independent coverage, not what those affiliated say or have written). In the interim, please be sure all statements are directly cited to a reliable source so when someone reads a sentence or paragraph, the cited sources support the content. Also, are there any secondary sources that have written about the podcast? A Twitter post is not sufficient (see WP:SOCIALMEDIA). (I know, lots of links to lots of Wikipedia stuff but honestly reading through them is pretty much a requirement to understanding Wikipedia's policies, guidelines and norms).
