Edinburgh Council reviewing if Wikipedia library access is ‘still fit for purpose’

Saw this and wondered if it was suitable for WP:PRESS. All it seems to show is that Edinburgh Council is not fit for purpose, because Wikipedia never has and never will promise that all of its articles are suitable for children to read. ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 17:41, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

I looked at it and IMO it's borderline, so I didn't add it. I won't object if you do. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:29, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

I just remembered my concerns about that source you put in the McLellan article.[1] I'd like to remove it because the headline of the news article sensationalizes something we don't (for good reason) contextualize in the WP article. Would you oppose the removal? Should I raise it at BLPN? I'm in no rush and not looking for trouble. Thomas B (talk) 16:17, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I'm opposed since it's a good source, adding to WP:N. The WP:HEADLINE doesn't matter, and the context is what it is. You can raise it at BLPN and WP:APPNOTE the talkpage, or vice versa. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:13, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
OK. If you're opposed and think it's important, I think I'll leave it alone for now. Cheers, Thomas B (talk) 21:05, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Question from Asmallbigworld (18:04, 18 October 2024)

Hello - I was looking to update a page that was blocked. I am not sure who the original owner was, or their login. I wanted to rewrite the page so it followed the guidelines but wasn't sure if I need access to the previous version that was blocked or if the correct route would be to start a new one altogether. Thanks. --Asmallbigworld (talk) 18:04, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

@Asmallbigworld Are you talking about an article that exists now, or a deleted one, perhaps WP:SALTed? Either way, what is/was the name of the article? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 18:08, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
@Gråbergs Gråa Sång It was a company article about DataXoom and was written by Dataxoom2020. The block reason was it read like an advertisement. Asmallbigworld (talk) 18:13, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
@Asmallbigworld Ok. Well, you can try, but per what I see at [2], it might not be possible to find the sources to meet the demands of WP:NORG. If you have those sources, the recommended route is to use WP:Article Wizard. Without good sources, an article will not be accepted. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 18:28, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
@Gråbergs Gråa Sång
I was able to find some linkable articles from tech blogs, yahoo news, and others (below). Is your recommendation to just create a new page instead of trying to unblock the previous page? Thank you for your assistance so far.

Per WP:N, which of these are the 3 best ones? Consider WP:BLOG. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:06, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
Probably yahoo (news) and fierce network (industry specific) articles may be the best...

Yahoo (see the entry at WP:RSP) fairly often posts stuff from elsewhere, it's marked at the top of the article. #1 is from TechRepublic, but it may be ok anyway. Trademag "articles" is sometimes targeted advertising, but this isn't obviously that.
2 looks like a press release, not independent.
3 Possibly ok-ish. I don't know anything about that site. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:34, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
Ping to @Orangemike if you wish to comment, you blocked the original article-creator in 2021.[3] Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:42, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
@Gråbergs Gråa Sång Fierce Network probably isn't a household name, but it is within the industry.
@Orangemike Let me know if you think we can get the page back up. Happy to rewrite it/source it to be more in line with your standards. Asmallbigworld (talk) 13:28, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
Bluntly, just about every bit of this looks like regurgitated press releases and glorified blog posts. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:54, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
@Gråbergs Gråa Sång @Orangemike
Got it. So, if I rewrote it and linked to some of those articles, it would still be rejected. Noted. I'll try again once more savory articles are available. Asmallbigworld (talk) 13:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
