Orphaned article?

[edit]

According to the criteria, "An article is orphaned if fewer than three other articles link to it. However, this is a strict definition of the term and there is still discussion regarding whether to have a more relaxed definition in order to clear the backlog of orphans. Currently our priority is to focus on orphans with NO incoming links at all, and it is recommended to only place the {{orphan}} tag if the article has ZERO incoming links from other articles. One or two incoming links may be sufficient as long as they are relevant. " (emphasis in original). This article has incoming links from four others, and is clearly not an orphan. Please stop edit-warring to add this inappropriate tag. RolandR (talk) 22:28, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but User:TedderBot/NewPageSearch/URBLP/archive does not count. That leaves three, which I guess is the bare minimum.   ArcAngel   (talk) ) 22:58, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Talk:1950–1951 Baghdad bombings doesn't count either.   ArcAngel   (talk) ) 22:59, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Arthur Neslen. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Several issues with this page: tone, neutrality, sources.

[edit]

The previous edit (April 2019) vastly increased article length, but it refers almost exclusively to Arthur Neslen's own Guardian articles and appears to be mostly self-promotional and autobiographical. Phrases such as "his revelations led to policy changes" seem slightly exagerating the impact of the author on the policy-making machine. Phrases such as "Although his position was scrapped due to cost-cuts" and "he exposed" and "he revealed" and "uncovered" are too strong and make it almost seem as if the article was written by Mr Neslen himself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Il.principe (talkcontribs) 11:51, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
