Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, S0091 (talk) 16:05, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tips[edit]

Hi TheaterLove, see WP:ABOUTSELF for using websites or other media published by the subject of an article. I removed Jessica Hung Han Yun's website from the article as it cannot be used to support claims about awards, etc. However, I was able to find appropriate sources so added them instead. Also, I suggest expanding it with reviews of her work (i.e. what critics said about her/her work). For Wikipedia, the key is summarizing what other reputable sources have said about a topic, not only chronicling what the subject has done. See also WP:Writing better articles for additional guidance. If you ever have questions or need help, you can ask at the Teahouse. S0091 (talk) 16:16, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Tingying Dong (July 29)[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 S0091 was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Interviews are not independent so cannot be used to establish notability and the award nominations are not enough to meet the the notability guidelines for artists.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Tingying Dong and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Musical theatre[edit]

Please do not add tables listing creative/crew in theatre articles. The director, choreographer and other notable (blue-linked) creatives should be listed in the Productions section in a sentence (not a table). Also, cast tables should include only productions that (1) have been described in the Productions section, and (2) are long-running, major-market productions. Thank you! -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:47, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As i have said in the discussion on the theater page;

I understand that Wikipedia has a commitment to maintaining consistency and accuracy across its pages, but I'd like to present a compelling argument for the addition of a creative team table to theatre articles.

Dynamic Information Representation: Theatre productions often experience revivals and changes to their creative teams. This fluid nature of productions means that the individuals involved may shift multiple times over a play's lifespan. A creative team table would provide a clear and concise way to document these changes, allowing readers to see the evolution of a production at a glance.
Relevance and Reference: Names of directors, designers, choreographers, and other creative team members are frequently cited in reviews, scholarly articles, and media. Including them in a table format will not only align with the way this information is often presented in industry-specific publications but also make it easier for readers to connect the information to external sources.
Consistency with Other Entertainment Pages: Wikipedia often includes tables and detailed information on cast and crew for film and television pages. Implementing a similar structure for theatre would create a more uniform approach across different forms of entertainment.
Adherence to Guidelines: I have thoroughly reviewed the Wikipedia guidelines and have not found a specific rule that prohibits the inclusion of this type of information. I believe this proposal is in alignment with Wikipedia's broader goals of providing comprehensive and easily accessible information.
Cooperative Development: I value the community-driven nature of Wikipedia and do not wish to make these changes unilaterally. Instead, I propose that we work together to find the best way to integrate this information, respecting the collaborative spirit that Wikipedia encourages.

To initiate this process, I would like to ask for guidance on how to formally submit this suggestion. Is there a specific forum or discussion page where I can present this proposal to a wider community of contributors? Your assistance in guiding me through this process would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for considering this addition to theatre Wikipedia pages, and I look forward to collaborating on a solution that serves the interests of both the Wikipedia community and its readers. TheaterLove (talk) 07:22, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, WP:NOT a newspaper or a comprehensive reference work. These tables decidedly do not belong in the theatre articles. Please keep the information in a concise narrative format. -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:23, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
