I am new and this is my first article. I don't know what i should change on my article to contribute to Wikipedia Melly42 13:37, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
- No, the article looks fine! I see no issues with it; it's much better-written and more well-organised than many other articles by more experienced contributors. jglc | t | c 13:42, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
Daily Mail
Hi Template:U. I refer to your edit here [1]. I am well aware that as of 2017 the Daily Mail is generally considered unreliable and I have always previously avoided using this source. However, in this case the Daily Mail article is actually written by the actress in question. I note blogs are deemed notable on Wikipedia if the person who has written them has notability themselves. I see no reason why Emily Lloyd writing herself in the Daily Mail should be covered by a blanket ban on the site. She is unlikely to have sensationalised or fabricated slander about herself, or have poor-fact checking regarding her own life, reasons that were given for the Daily Mail being considered unreliable. The source is also not used for anything that is unduly self-serving or biased in her favour; she admits drug addiction in the article, among other things. Furthermore the article in question is from 2013, predating the point from which the source was generally considered unreliable. I've reverted the removal of content but I'm happy to discuss the matter further. Damien Linnane (talk) 01:38, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
- Some of the references to that source are potentially reasonable per your points; however, when we begin making claims related to and impacting other people who aren't the author, that becomes more problematic. I don't agree that the details about the sexual abuse – a potentially criminal accusation – or about the "troubled relationship" are appropriately cited. Nikkimaria (talk) 01:51, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
- Oh that's a good point. I've found better sources for those two points, and have attributed the claim that the relationship was troubled to Lloyd's assertion, rather than a solid fact. :) Damien Linnane (talk) 02:05, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
Picture
What is even in the picture of Emily Lloyd? 47.157.200.6 (talk) 16:34, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- ...what does that even mean? There's nothing in the picture as there is no picture. If you're trying to ask why there isn't a picture, it's because nobody has uploaded a free image, and we wouldn't be able to use a fair use one since the subject is still alive. See Wikipedia:Non-free content. Damien Linnane (talk) 02:50, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
