Talk:Dee Robson

Original research/ autobiography/ conflict of interest

This article appears to have been created by the subject's daughter, with some edits possibly by the subject herself.[1] A strict interpretation of Wikipedia's policies on autobiographies and conflicts of interest would probably lead to the article being deleted; however, since the subject is notable and the claims in the article aren't particularly grandiose, and could probably (mostly) be sourced to independent sources, I think I'll let it slide for now. However, that doesn't mean that the statements which read like original research should go unquestioned. While I don't doubt that Robson drew inspiration from Russian ballet and memento mori statues, Wikipedia requires that statements be attributable to reliable published sources. Although it may seem paradoxical, secondary sources are preferable to primary sources for Wikipedia's purposes. Has Robson ever been interviewed for a newspaper or magazine article? Is she quoted or her work referenced in any books on the history of British television? These are the sorts of sources that would be useful for the article.

Also, phrases like " her style continues to reflect the clarity and directness of fashion drawing" don't quite comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. If reliable secondary sources can be found which characterize Robson's work in this way, a footnote can be added and the clause kept, but otherwise it should be rephrased or deleted. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 05:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
