this is PR spam, chock full of black hat SEO "news" sources designed to make clients seem more notable than they actually are. Praxidicae (talk) 12:15, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, this artist is well known, she published music albums, she is a performer and so on. I am not sure, where is the problem, especially as there are references and real awards and music :)? Klarqa (talk) 13:30, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Klarqa well for starters, half of your sources are fake. Praxidicae (talk) 14:14, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again! I remeber, checking those articles - are you saying, there are empty links now? I can assure you, that this person is known also abroad in certain groups of fans, she has concerts all over the world and so on :) I have her albums at home Klarqa (talk) 14:40, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I have to go back to work now, so please - let me know what we can do here, because it took a lot of work to compose this article, gather photos with permissions and so on :) I checked links and I remember these articles- they are OK. Klarqa (talk) 14:44, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Klarqa no they're not dead links, they're blatant fake news sites run by black hat SEO firms that publish material to imitate real journalists and news sites to make their clients look important. Sites like this are nothing short of SEO trash. Praxidicae (talk) 14:53, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, I just believed they are OK, because I can tell the information inside are true. There are more sources in Polish language, but I decided that maybe it would be more convenient to use English language sources on enwiki. If I can use for now Polish references I can add them (as a long time editor I know, that when it`s problem with sources in English, you can use another language, if topic/person is still suitable for enclopeadia, and this particular person is. Links in Polish (some of them): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. You can check those via this analitic tool. Thanks! Klarqa (talk) 16:02, 7 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Klarqa the Polish sources are not good either. this is an interview and doesn't appear to be an rs anyway, this is basically imdb, [wp.pl/?s=https%3A%2F%2Ffanyv88.com%3A443%2Fhttps%2Fkobieta.wp.pl%2Fpiosenkarka-pati-sokol-nagle-zniknela-dzis-opowiada-o-tym-jak-zmienilo-sie-jej-zycie-6458420582282881a&src01=f1e45 this is basically the same as the first one], this says nothing about her, this is far from coverage, this is a press release/announcement and I could continue but I hope you get the point.

Good morning, so what can we do, because comapring to other biographic articles on enwiki, this person belongs as the published known artist, and of course for this kind of artistic activity sources are these kind very often (imbd, album release information etc.), especially when we speak about contemporary artists. And thank you for your work on making Wikipedia better! I have work to do whole day, so I will be back at my evenning (CET). Klarqa (talk) 09:28, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
