Lists of publications: advice

I've looked through the older discussions on how to approach bibliographic sections ([1] [2]), it appears that there's no hard policy on this topic (I couldn't find one), so I'd ask for some advice here. A useful thing I've noticed on German Wikipedia is that the editors take care to link the scans of books and articles if they're public domain or under a similar open license, e.g. de:August Leskien. Is this desirable on en.wp too? I've done that at Vatroslav Jagić and Atanasije Stojković (the latter having a mixture of fictional and scientific content). In the former article I also regularly included translations of the work-titles in brackets, as the scholar barely published in English, although I'm not sure if such data is truly needed (whoever knows the language and would wish to find and read the original book can understand the title anyway), and it might take up too much space. What is the best approach here? — Phazd (talk|contribs) 00:42, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dr. Catherine Emihovich

Hello everybody!

I recently have been edited the page on Catherine Emihovich all by myself. Any help would be appreciated as I don't have much experience with wikipedia. If you were wondering she was the 12th Dean at the University of florida. I went to their talk page but it shut down. Once again anything is appreciated.

Shane emihovich, this page doesn't seem very active, you could ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women in Red as they are usually helpful with editing women's biography articles. Also your username suggests that you may have a conflict of interest in editing the article, there is already some advice about this on your talk page.

Jerzy Linderski

Re the long list of students in this article, unsourced or sourced to primary sources via external links. Wondering whether this should be deleted. Is there guidance on details of students? Thanks. Tacyarg (talk) 09:04, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mariapaola D'Imperio

Would someone mind taking a look at Mariapaola D'Imperio and assessing it per WP:NPROF? There are only two primary-like sources currently being cited in support of article content, but one of them includes a list of publictions that might show the subject meets NPROF. The subject of the article has also recently started to edit it; so far, most of those edits seem to be fairly innoculous and made in good faith, but they might try to do some more. I did some minor reorganizing and hid some content per WP:BLPSOURCES, but it's probably better if someone more familair with articles about academics take a closer look at it. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:47, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Eric Dyson

Hello there. I am editing regarding the article on Michael Eric Dyson. I noticed some trivia about Dyson and Nancy Mace that was not sourced well, so I removed it. It was added back in with some more questionable sourcing - a Mediaite article and a youtube video. I think that according to Wikipedia policy, both of those sources are problematic, especially when no one else is reporting on the Mace/Dyson alleged interaction. I think it's too trivial to include in an encyclopedia. Please look for yourself, thank you. Oliver Phile (talk) 16:58, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Daniel Diermeier

Hi editors, I'm Ben and work for Vanderbilt University. I'm hoping to get some additional feedback on a request I made of the Daniel Diermeier article and thought it may be of interest to people here. If you have the time to take a look and offer any thoughts, I'd really appreciate it! VandyBE (talk) 17:06, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
