18:35:09, 28 January 2023 review of draft by JvDuijn[edit]


JvDuijn (talk) 18:35, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am trying to get an English article published about one key European player in semiconductor history called Arthur del Prado. This is in particular importance regarding ongoing debates about export controles to China on semiconductor technology by companies this person has founded.

Yet time and time again it is seen as being too much of an advertisement article. Yet no positively flavoring words are used, it is factual and consistently I refer to public peer reviewed articles. Even more, it is written in line with the articles of his (industry) peers like Robert Noyce, Gordon Moore, etc. If my draft is problematic, so should be those. Moreover, my draft relies for a major part upon a PhD dissertation (how much very peer-reviewed, would you like to have it!). Very frustrating. Now I removed the parts stating his public recognition (Dutch and international honorary titles, etc.), as otherwise I really don't see where else the 'advertisement' feeling comes from. Even though, these titles are facts as well. Hope somebody can help me in improving the article to the Wiki-standards, because I am lost here.

I was just looking at the submission and saw this tag was added

{{Undisclosed paid|date=January

I think you are saying that I'm being paid to create this article but I am not.

@SOLIDSTATEBATTERIES I remember seeing a discussion about this a while back. Maybe a couple of months ago. IIRC, the OP is related to the subject of the draft--even if not being specifically "paid to write the article". I could be remembering wrong, though. I'll do a search after while, unless I go to bed first... David10244 (talk) 05:56, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
