Question about adding template
Allan Lichtman is a professor at American University who has received extensive media coverage for formulating and applying The Keys to the White House, a prediction model. The Talk page for his bio article has the standard BLP template but the Talk page for the "Keys" article does not. I've been involved in extremely contentious editing on the "Keys" article; if the template would be appropriate there, I'd appreciate it if an uninvolved editor would add it. Thanks!

Help with [[Sanket Goel]]
Hi! I've been trying to clear up the COI and original research tags on this article. Can anybody help me out with what should be removed and fixed? Shashy 922 (talk) 07:20, 4 March 2025 (UTC)
Christopher McKnight Nichols
Christopher McKnight Nichols. Likely public relations article creation. I am wondering if he passes WP:NPROF. I've trimmed out lots of things that simply listed out awards, citing the non-notable award issuer themselves, or news links just to say he's "appeared in". Graywalls (talk) 21:52, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
:On the face of it, he would appear to pass WP:PROF#C5 (named professorship in lead) and WP:AUTHOR (multiple published reviews of his books can be found on JSTOR and Google Scholar). —David Eppstein (talk) 23:01, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

Dr. Khaldoun Sweis
Hi
I was hired by Dr. Khaldoun Sweis to fix his Wikipedia-article, which I felt I did, and now it´s cut in half, and I´m being told not to edit - all the while there still are "error messages" at the top of the article.
I was told in the chat that the previous issue was inline-links.
As for sourced material, I feel there are ample amounts of those?
One section that was removed was Personal life. I don´t know why that would be removed when it was there before? Would it help if Dr. Khaldoun verified the information personally?
Another section that was removed was Core Philosophy, which seems of public interest to me, as he meets several criteria for Notable Academic.
Now somebody seems to be heckling me, and not answering any questions.

Yours truly
Audun H. Nilsen
