User talk:Perryjarvis

Hi, Tom I deleted your recent article because it did not provide independent verifiable sources that it meets the notability guidelines, the same reason as three years ago. It is now wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have proper references, the refs given are just her own site and what appears to be gallery - I don't know what Haunch of Venison is and its not linked or explained in the article
she creates magical alternative worlds for them to fly off into. spammy and non-encyclopaedic
Inspired to create work of her own.... during which her intuitive and personal response to the medium were obvious. not to me, unsourced puffery
She has since had solo exhibitions in the UK and the United States needs location and references
and in summer 2010 opens Psychopomps at Haunch of Venison, her biggest show to date. What are Psychopomps and Haunch of Venison? no links, explanation or sources
Polly Morgan is a member of the guild of taxidermists, which adheres to and promotes the law pertaining to taxidermy, and keeps a detailed log of all animals in stock. claims to, rather than stated as fact
All the taxidermied animals she uses are either road casualties or have been donated to her by pet owners and vets after natural or unpreventable deaths no ref

Please note that there is an offer of help with this under your message on my talk page from an User:Senra an experienced editor who will be able assist with in-line referencing and suchlike. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:16, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Polly Morgan

Indeed. As Jimfbleak says. I am perfectly happy to assist. We should develop the article in user space rather than main space. We still need to take care to develop the article as per the guidelines below. The article is less likely to be deleted in user space. To do this, your article name should be something like "Perryjarvis/Polly Morgan". If you need help, edit your talk page and type {{Helpme}} followed by the help you need such as, in this case, "Please help me create a user space biography".

Read the below then contact me on my talk page if you want me to help you with making this article. We need to review a few helper articles such as

WP:NPOV, WP:V, and WP:NOR - general policies
MOS:BIO - Manual of style, biographies
WP:PEOPLE - notability
WP:BLP - biography of living person (we need more care if the person is living so we do not upset them)
WP:RS - reliable sources
WP:LINKS - for help on linking within the article to wikipedia itself, such as Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin.
{{Infobox artist}} - the infobox which has basic facts about our subject
Once we have gathered the facts and assembled them in a readable order with reliable sources as references we can then ask someone for feedback on the article. If the feedback is positive, we can then ask for help moving the article to main-space (i.e. Wikipedia)

Additionally, you should

consider reading a few similar articles. In this case, Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Julian Schnabel, and Cindy Sherman
find reliable sources for background information such as Daily Telegraph, London Evening Standard, The Independent, and The Guardian
