Tag removals from Debbie Klein's page
Hi Kj cheetham. I added citations to Klein's page to verify her education and teaching credentials and experience. Her publications and honors appear under three different versions of her name: Debra L., Debra, and Debbie. Perhaps that is part of the verification problem. Thank you.

- Hi Lolade1998, thanks for making the changes. I've removed the tags. The issue was more a case of those sections not having any refs at all to easily verify the facts of a living person, rather than any issue with multiple variations of the name. -Kj cheetham (talk) 19:34, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Hi again Lolade1998, You might also want to look at rewording the section on 'A Political Economy of Lifestyle and Aesthetics', as it's a bit too close to one of the sources when looking at Earwig's Copyvio Detector. -Kj cheetham (talk) 12:08, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
Hi Kj cheetham. Thank you for the suggestion. I have made the changes you suggested. Lolade1998 (talk) 17:01, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Tag removal for page on Heather Grabbe
Hi Kj cheetham, I have modified the bibliography section of the page on Heather Grabbe. Now the external links are only in the titles of the publications, where publications are available online. Does that address the issue raised in the external links tag? Thanks! --User20200627 (talk) 00:32, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi User20200627, thank you for your work, that is certainly much improved! I have reviewed the page again, and taken off that tag, but added two others. I feel the list of items in the Bibliography is a bit too long, and should be more just a representative selection and/or the highest impact items. 5-10 max is probably a more suitable number for an article like that. I have added a new section with a link to the Google Scholar page showing a more complete list though. -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:28, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
Polish physicists by field
It's a container category; I want to make a similar one for other nationalities, e.g. for American physicists – categories about field of reserach are somewhat blended there with those about membership, employment etc. Categories with physicists by century have a container, so I guess a similar thing for field of research would be okay too. --Tarnoob (talk) 12:44, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Tarnoob, Even Category:American physicists only has 18 sub-cats and that's the largest number of any of the national physicist cats, so I feel that making an extra level of "X physicists by field" is a bit overkill. You might want to confirm consensus at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Physics before making any larger scale changes. -Kj cheetham (talk) 12:53, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
Loop quantum gravity researchers
I just wanted to defend the LQG people category; I'm not sure if the guidelines specify it, but I believe that lists & categories are complementary. The way they present information can diverge; e.g. a list doesn't have to be sorted alphabetically and a category, by default, always is. --Tarnoob (talk) 22:05, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- In the future, please reply on your own talk page, otherwise it makes things much harder to follow. -Kj cheetham (talk) 22:07, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
Adding British Comedian Bill Bailey to the Today's Date list
Hi there Kj cheetham - Following an earlier post (that you also picked up) I'd like to ask how to correctly add a notoriety to the Today's Date List on Wikipedia. Today it is the birthday of the British musician and comedian Bill Bailey (born 1965). I've noticed that he is not on the list - in fact, there's nobody listed under 'Births' and the year '1965' yet. I'd say Bailey is famous enough to be on the list. But, how do I add him correctly without the entry being removed 2 minutes later? - Cheers and thanks --> Kmilling (talk) 10:52, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Kmilling, thank you for your message! I don't think I've ever actually done it myself, but the guidance is at WP:DOTY. The key part is "Any material lacking a reliable source directly supporting it may be removed and should not be restored without an inline citation to a reliable source. A blue link to a Wikipedia article is not sufficient." So you need both a blue-link AND a reference for it to not get deleted. I'd also agree that Bill Bailey was famous enough though! -Kj cheetham (talk) 10:10, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Kj cheetham - I'll read the WP:DOTY later today, and then give it ago. See if I can find external and trustworthy sources to validate Bailey's actual birthday. --> Kmilling (talk) 13:51, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- Kmilling, I'm sure there must be something out there. Good luck! -Kj cheetham (talk) 12:57, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
