Your submission at Articles for creation: Marcia Bricker Halperin (January 25)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Hoary 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:
Please ensure that the draft demonstrates that Halperin satisfies either WP:ARTIST or, more generally, WP:PERSON. As it is, this draft does suggest that the book Kibbitz & Nosh: When We All Met at Dubrow's Cafeteria is notable. Why not put Halperin aside for now, and create a draft about the book?
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 it after they have been resolved.

Ok. Got it. It goes against the style manual I ordinarily use. But I will make the changes. Iss246 (talk) 23:41, 26 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Bless you.
Over the years, I didn't know about the article creation site, and just went ahead and created articles. When I learned about it, I tried it out.
I appreciate your help. I will inform ForsythiaJo, who was also encouraging.
Thank you. Iss246 (talk) 03:29, 30 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Brief Encounter

IMDB is a site that relies on user generated content for it's existence so is not a reliable source for Wikipedia. You watchng the film is meaningless. The station scenes were shot at Carnforth which was renamed Milford for the shoot. There is no evidence that the Milford referred to was the one in Surrey. If you continue edit warring over this article you coud find yourself banned from editing. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 08:22, 14 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Murgatroyd49, The Ten Commandments were filmed in Hollywood, but it was supposed to take place in Egypt. I did not say that Brief Encounter was filmed in Milford. I know that much of the movie was filmed in Carnforth. But where it is filmed and where it is supposed to be taking place are different matters. And don't threaten me with banning. You are not the king of Wikipedia.
I add that IMBD is a worthy website. Entries are screened. Inaccurate IMBD entries are removed or improved. Here is what is written in Wikipedia about IMDB:

"IMDb has been subject to deliberate additions of false information; in 2012 a spokesperson said: "We make it easy for users and professionals to update much of our content, which is why we have an 'edit page'. The data that is submitted goes through a series of consistency checks before it goes live. Given the sheer volume of the information, occasional mistakes are inevitable, and, when reported, they are promptly fixed. We always welcome corrections." Iss246 (talk) 02:31, 15 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

It is still not a reliable source for Wikipedia, see WP:Reliable sources. Also there is no evidence that the "Milford" referred to in the film is the one in Surrey.
IMDb is a reliable source. I stopped caring about Surrey after hassling with you. Iss246 (talk) 02:32, 17 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that's a relief then. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 08:36, 17 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@User:Murgatroyd49, not as much as it is relief to me. And you are wrong about IMDb. Iss246 (talk) 13:51, 17 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Much appreciated!

Thank you very much for your intelligent remark last Sunday at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Gestalt_psychology#Adage! -anotherKWW (talk) 03:47, 27 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
