Lewis Watson Artist submission

[edit source]

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Lewis_Watson_(Musician)

I've written a page on an artist who's previously been signed with Warner, and has enough potential for the article to be expanded to a satisfactory level.

I feel the article is appropriate because of the artist's recent successes and future prospects.

Is there anything I have missed that would mean this article isn't yet appropriate for Wikipedia?

Thank you

It's a bit thin on significant coverage in independent reliable sources - see WP:42. (Also "the number of people subscribed to him on his YouTube channel increased rapidly" - so what?) You could try submitting it anyway, though. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 13:55, 12 May 2013 (UTC)


Thank you for your feedback. I will take your suggestions into account and try to re-submit it. Samplumm (talk) 22:02, 12 May 2013 (UTC)Samplumm

Formatting query

[edit source]

Re Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Justin Smith (radio)

I am drafting the above article (only my second new article, usually concentrate on updating & expanding existing articles) and have a small formatting query.

In the Occupation section of the infobox, should the items listed start with a capital letter or not? I have them capitalised at the moment.

I would appreciate any comments/assistance. Thanks. Melbourne3163 (talk) 18:24, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

I just checked a few random radio host articles, and they usually capitalize only the first occupation and add the others with commas, without breaks:
Occupation Radio producer, presenter, writer
See for example Rush Limbaugh. I'd follow those examples. Huon (talk) 22:37, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your quick response. OK, I'll go with the Rush Limbaugh style. Cheers. Melbourne3163 (talk) 23:53, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
