- That sounds pretty good (particularly the NOW information). Could you post the rewritten version at Nitche Ward? Sorry for the problems earlier, but we get lots of text dumps and other spam. --Slowking Man 08:53, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Interviews are not acceptable as articles, and you once again copied the contents from a website that states that "All Rights Reserved". Write an article about her yourself, and please keep it encyclopedic. Thank you. - Itsfullofstars 09:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
If you are the person who is the subject of the article, you might also want to read Wikipedia's policy on autobiography. -- Karada 09:09, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
This is not an autobiography, also interviews can be considered an article, but I will update it without the interview so that you feel more comfortable.
- Not here they can't: they need to be in the form of an encyclopedia article, written in Wikipedia's in-house NPOV style, and with cites from verifiable reliable sources that the subject of the article meets Wikipedia's notability criteria. Also, adding links to the same external website in multiple articles is not generally allowed: see WP:SPAM for guidance on this. -- Karada 09:19, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- the problem should be taken care of. The artilce listed is not an interview. It is written in NPOV style. The artists is attributed and notable. You can verify the artists all over the internet (just google nitche ward or original woman). If you would like specific links - I have given you some specific links for verification previously below. And the link that is added to the article is not a an external link that is listed multiple times. This links goes to a specific page in case researchers are looking for specific information. Anything else that you would like to be fixed?**
Also, This is not an advertisement. It does not promote the artists in any format that has conflicting view points. It is also written as in a neutral point of view, and is also not written by the artists. It only tells about the details of what it is to be a spoken word artists on the road, which is a notable subject to be included in the encyclopedia
This artists has also been attributed and notable. If you would like to research it has been published several places

- Then please craft an article that meets the criteria I have quoted above. At the moment, the first paragraph of the text reads
- For those of you who thought the revolutionary period was over…do we have a treat for you. Be inspired. Be encouraged. Get your soapboxes and your megaphones ready to rally with a righteous woman with a cause. Nitche Ward a.k.a. The Original Woman is not only poetically skilled to paint pictures with words, but she has also bears the moniker of “Artivist” (those who combine arts and social justice), carrying with her a mighty voice of empowerment.
- and ends with the sentence:
- Please check out www.theoriginalwoman.com/press.htm for interview
- which is difficult to reconcile with the NPOV policy, is still not written in an encyclopedic style, and still looks a lot like an advertisement to me. Again, please read NPOV for a guide to Wikipedia's house style. -- Karada 09:20, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
- the edits should be satisfactory now....?**
