lot of philosophies, and I want to start a section on his philosophies on parkour... Btw, is YouTube absolutely 100% blacklisted, or is it just widespread convention? I don't see any clause for blacklisting in the policies. Not only do they lay out that reliability is a case-to-case basis with intrinsic content being a strong factor, they specifically state questionable sources may be used in certain cases. If it's a strict, definitive ruling, please direct me to the documentation that outlines the rules regarding such rulings. The very idea just doesn't make any sense to me. For instance, I found two videos that beyond a shadow of a doubt relay the information that Ryan won the 2011 Brazil Red Bull Art of Motion. A video on redbull.com lists him as a participant, features him in the video, almost certainly appearing to be the winner at the end, though it doesn't technically state "Ryan Doyle - first place". However, Ryan labels his extended video of him at the exact same setting "Ryan Doyle - 1st Place at Art of Motion Brazil 2011". This creates an absolutely overwhelming proof of the claim he won the competition, because his status with Red Bull makes it an infinitesimal chance he would just plain lie about his competition status. Backed with the other video, this is the exact type of multi-source proof that WP calls for to reliably back claims. If it's truly a widespread ban, then would you agree the end result creates hypocrisy in the general system? I'm not trying to be hostile, but I think you'll agree a quirk in the system that damages the overall mandate of Knowledge (XXG) warrants close examination.(?)

priority issues presented. Note, I didn't add "multiple tags", but consolidated issues in accordance with guidelines. All issues were previously discussed. Sometimes when others just refuse to "get it", the end result is to walk away. In the end, I chose to place the tags to officially identify the areas needing improvement. This was met with Squish7 removing the maintenance tags and filing a dispute. I refuse to engage in fruitless arguments with him. If he truly needs help, I'm here. My only goal has been to help him to ensure the article clearly establishes notability, which has been a bit borderline due to lack of significant reliable, secondary sources. As stated before, my support is not for my benefit, but for Squish7's and for the encyclopedia. Oy vey for trying to help. As far as your example, the links provided to Squish7 explain the issues in vast detail. In my opinion, it's redundant to copy and paste or paraphrase the guidelines for some readers that are unable to read them for themselves. But still, I have attempted to converse with him and provide guidance 'til I'm blue in the face. Claims that he read and "committed policies and guidelines to memory" are essentially met with a tilt of the head to the left and a right eyebrow lifted. This is not an insult, but

views are separate, distinct, and unaccountable to community policies and guidelines. It's akin to Sue Gardner's analogy in today's Signpost, "The analogy I often use is the newsroom. Anybody who’s curious and reasonably intelligent can be a good journalist, but you do need some orientation and guidance. Just like a newsroom couldn’t invite in 100 random people off the street and expect them to make an immediate high-quality contribution, neither can Knowledge (XXG) expect that." The policies and guidelines are there to help you be successful in your work on Knowledge (XXG). Nothing more; nothing less. I encourage you to spend more time becoming familiar with them. Nobody is perfect, but it's important to learn the expectations of the project and continue to progress. Ask questions on the talk pages of policy and guidelines. (I've said this all before, but thought I'd take another shot.) Best regards,

Knowledge (XXG) article. Without any other references, and without the film actually having been produced yet, I would assume it to be a kind of extended YouTube video, along the lines of his 'world tour' stuff. I don't think it indicates a 'progressing' film career as yet, but I have no objection to listing actor in the first sentence as he has acted in a film previously. I am also happy with 'coach' and 'martial artist' as there are sources that indicate he coaches kids and took part in martial arts competitions. There's still no reliable source to indicate that he's a traceur, so I can't support that, and I don't know of any source that says he's done anything significant as a stuntman or choreographer. If you can find reliable sources then we can add those too, but for now I'm happy with 'freerunner, martial artist, actor and coach' if you think the sentence needs more.
3873:. He tried something difficult at the very end and missed his landing by a few feet, not the 170 feet that would be required by your logic to retroactively nullify his performance up until that point and throw off the entire net score. His broken leg was a haphazard consequence of one failed move. Plenty of sports operate on the accumulation of points that can't be retraced at the end of a game because of an injury (soccer, football..). You have a minor point that this could be likened to a sport where the score is based on an entire performance in one block--i.e. that if an olympic ice skater slipped the wrong way at the end of their performance and happened to break their ankle, it might damage their overall score enough to lose them a gold metal--but even if we let you impose your personal scoring system on the Art of Motion (the only way you even have a point 1456:
situations where your behavior will be insulting, destructive, or wasteful of your and/or others' time. While I have learned how to better communicate on my end, the next person who approaches you in the same manner will not have that experience. Retroactively, you must realize there's something that could improve about your recognition skills if you caused someone to feel so alienated, not-listened-to, etc. My prose in combination with the information available to you (my article, my history, etc..) was definitely enough information to deduce I was aware of all these help files and policies, albeit you didn't have time to take it all into account. Perhaps, then, you can work on how to parse/filter such information on the fly. How to recognize patterns that would have signified my absolutely frustration.
1460:
of detailed policies and examples is lengthy. I was told, "Have a look at WP:RS" as the first sentence than anyone on Knowledge (XXG) offered me in respnose to the writing of my first article, for which I'd asked close examinination to see if I'd properly adhered to the rules. Intrinsically, you must realize that this can easily be taken as absolutely hostile. What this basically says is, "You didn't even bothering examining Knowledge (XXG) policy before you wrote your article", or "You haven't edited enough to have any general sense of sourcing policy", etc. There's just no other interpretation with the context of an article than in retrospect was very well-sourced, for which I either had to have closely read the policy files, or was, again, so intimately aware of them that I could have written them.

be safe - press reports or such. One or two would stop a refimprove tag - which in itself isn't a case for total despair. They can be there for months or years. No need to apologise for anything. You needed to know, we're here to try to help (as well as to delete things...). One thing I will ask is that you don't use 'notoriety' where 'notability' is the word (or 'fame'). Notoriety can mean fame, but only in the cases of people like Al Capone, Pol Pot or (locally) certain sockpuppeteers and persistent vandals. It seems to be a leakage from hiphop or rap, where you apparently have to be seen as notorious even though you come from from a middle class household and have never even been told off by a cop for riding your bike without lights.
3507:"Parkour" Federation in the first sentence is enough. (Note I've added "world champion" as it just sounds weak/lame to say he's just a "freerunner" with no other classification granting him sophistication. Note that this is a very common nutshell term--"world champion freerunner"--applied when summing him up in a phrase.) Perhaps I'll pursue this more later, I have some counterpoints or fine notes to your arguments and sources. I do agree there are other ways to phrase things that might present a perfect balance, it's just too tedious to find the absolute precise phrases that will represent and be fair/uninsulting to all parties involved. I'm happy with the lede sentence if we simple include "world champion". 3150:
consensus in the community seems to be that Freerunning is a subset of Parkour (see the WFPF website)--with which Ryan also has officially stated--he already practices Parkour by default anyway. I suppose in the scenario that Freerunning was strictly and universally considered a subset of Parkour that it would be redundant to list "Freerunner and Parkour practitioner", but since there's so much debate and confusion, it's overwhelmingly prudent to list him as both. I suppose it may be prudent to list Freerunner first given the number of PK practitioners who don't consider him one, but the very sport/discipline he says he practices, and promotes constantly, can't be entirely cut out in
3342:. Ryan constantly drills in the core importance of individuality. He believes and states that everyone should figure out what Parkour is on their own grounds, telling people not to listen what he says or what anyone else says but to discover it for themselves. (He often wraps up an interview or video with this statement.) He basically directly declares that he is not associated with any particular party's definition of Parkour, and as people who's job it is to carefully balance all possible information out there, I think we should especially respect this dogma. In other words, declaring him only a "self-declared traceur" as if saying the 763:, has no motive to lie about whether an athletic invent existed, or what a sponsored athlete's date of birth is. Even supposing they had such a motive, and a history of moderate fraud, why wouldn't an encyclopedia editor--emphatically charged with collecting as much information as possible for the single purpose of objective verifiability--not be able to filter, sift, weigh, and balance. E.g., "Joe has a dog named Fido, and is the nicest person in the history of humanity." The latter phrase is intrinsically prone to bias, but the former--especially if the reporting entity has never lied about whether someone has a dog--is 682:. Forget IMDb - it's user supplied. Also, forget profiles on related sites - usually user supplied too. I'd also say keep away from Red Bull and any other sponsor or promoter or organiser. They are not reliable in that they won't say anything against the subject. (There may be nothing bad or indifferent to say - but we still don't trust them.) Avoid all blogs, forums and editable things (including us and other wikis). No to MySpace, Facebook, YouTube, AboutUs and LinkedIn (and similar). RS will tell you about independent reliable sources. The ones you cite may all be truthful, but I would not rely on them. Good luck... 2777:
most of the content - it does, however, show that someone considered him notable enough to interview him. I presume UWIRE is a student newspaper or something like that, though, which means they can only count towards notability so much. The argument for that is similar to the one for the Cayman Compass above. However, we must be careful to check who actually published it - in this case I see that the UWIRE interview was uploaded to YouTube by a user named RyanDoylePKTV, which makes me doubt that it has actually been published by someone independent of Doyle.
3813:, this says nothing about his notability of being one of the most globally active members of the FR community, and the epitome of a global athlete in general. WP labeling him as "international" does not mean "well, he could have traveled once to a neighboring country". It means that we as editors are presenting the term as an epitome description of his career and characters. You just can't get more global than Doyle without living on an airplane and not even having a physical residence. Does "world class" or "global" fit your taste better? 3075:
the Daily Trojan article in which Ryan states that he is 'a freerunner who practises parkour', directly after the article states that he does not like to distinguish between the two. All other sources contain the same qualification. Even if you consider sources which only imply that Ryan practises Parkour rather than make a statement, the only sources that exist are those which also claim that Parkour and Freerunning are the same thing. There is no source which states that Ryan practises two separate things called Freerunning and Parkour.
3297:
Parkour--as should the organizer of the most global/prominent event of something at least generally to do with Parkour/Freerunning movements. In short, the statements of Red Bull and the WFPF should be given incredible weight in this issue, even if other local/national bodies feel the same way as Parkour UK; hence I suppose our task on this issue would be to balance all available sources on both issues. Can you find quotes from other national PK authorities that mimic that of Parkour UK? If not, I think your case falls a bit short.
3091:. It's harder to do a good job on fact-checking when you don't have access to anyone who knows the facts. As I said in our discussion on my talk page, given that most new practitioners based their understanding on poorly-checked media reports, you now have media organisations producing poorly-checked reports on practitoners whose own facts are poorly-checked. Consequently, many media organisations that would normally be considered reliable are unreliable on the subject of Parkour. The amount of nonsense written about Parkour is huge. 1534:(a mere mention of them here even able to be considered a tiny suggestion for whole articles). Further, I don't actually go into the techniques; I simply list them, as one would list the published works of a reputable expert in any art, science, or discipline. This is the exact opposite of being a manual or guide. As to their encyclopedic value, it would be absolutely contradictory to call for inclusion of experts on certain subjects, deem them notable, and not consider their teaching style or tutorial works worthy of 2781:
have three: two specialist parkour sources and one local newspaper. This is not the best evidence of notability, but I think that this, plus the other mentions in Google News, plus the fact that he won at least one major parkour competition would be enough to see the article kept were it nominated for deletion. Still, it doesn't look like enough to write a good-length article to me, so as I see it the article will have to be made shorter. You don't have to take my word for all of this though - that is what we have the
991:
These types of things are not lightly, but completely forbidden, by these general taboos multiple admins have listed. I really want to continue with this article, but uber-reliable third-party sources barely cover the material. I appreciate assurance that the article is likely well-written due to its non-removal, but I need something more than an 85% chance someone wont't say, "Well you really shouldn't have been using XYZ to begin with, and your extension solidifies its inappropriateness, warranting removal."
3387:
but they can't say they speak for the general freerunning community, as they're going against the very core of freerunning (showcasing, style, etc., which fits intrinsically into the Red Bull AOM). Therefore, they have weakened credibility for being objective and drawing particular boundaries. If you want to apply this statement to Ryan--arguing that because he's involved in the Red Bull AOM, the statement applies to him in general--then you have to include Freerunning as something Parkour UK states he does
1719:) as a primary means of professional publication and information release. Making major edits on the structural, intrinsic assumption these references are taboo (i.e. without carefully weighing multiple particular references and precise policy clauses), is directly against the wording and spirit of WP policy. Doyle has studied media and a major university, and his videos are embedded or linked to on many external reliable sources, both well-establishing his publication means as stable and reliable. 3464:
uses the word 'Parkour' just because it's cool, and he confirms that he's solely responsible for Red Bull's Parkour information. If you compare what he says with the views of actual experts then it seems obvious that he isn't one. In any case, he is an unreliable source on the issue of whether or not he is a Parkour practitioner or expert due to conflict of interest. If we lack any reliable source that says he's a Parkour practitioner, then we can't state that he is in the Knowledge (XXG) article.
1555:
information--something strictly called for in policies that thoroughly use the words "generally"/etc--should yield these publications latitude in light of that the nature of them defies the point of official publishing as WP defines it. The web is a free and vastly efficient medium for free publication. This fact nullifies much of the point of strict scholastic publication. All the sub-policies are generated and ultimate stem from the general but strict wordings of the purpose of WP

I want to tie into the international touring team events that are happening everywhere else, too. So hopefully you guys can come visit me in Liverpool, come train at Airborn and learn how to move free and get involved in more art of motion stuff because we want to be doing tournaments, too, and get you down into

what I feel to be correct (backed by the continued existence of the article) is abysmal. It's not about the past; it's about that I don't want to write an 80-page article and be told that my methods weren't really appropriate to begin with. From what you say, my first 3 sources, used for 8 different references, are taboo. Yet I feel they're very verifiable, and that my judgement in using them as a collective with all the sources is quite kosher, and, that the spirit

So many ideas go forth crippled because of the need to spend literally tens of thousands of dollars to protect an idea because we can't have a society where we simply respect each other's property. It's an evil in the world I can't extinguish alone; maybe someday as part of a paladin army, who knows...

argument sans milking all available sources. I think in general that an academy/school of substance is more notable than an individual, perhaps not in this case, but the following should at least be heavily observed for insertion here or new articles. Maybe a sentence or two here would at least suffice. I'm too fatigued haggling all these infinitesimal wordings to spare the time to do this, but they should be on a to-do list for this page in any case:
3362:. The lede does not have to state that Doyle is a direct and definitive associate with Parkour in order to put him in place with the breed of Parkour he practices. Simple tricks like using "parkour athlete" (which could be read as "one of the body of people who include athletics/competition in their breed of Parkour") may do a lot in a small space. Or, maybe this should warrant a few sentences that concisely sum up the controversy about this point. 416: 398: 1010:
can link to it (bot permitting...), but a reference showing that it was really used would help too. Cindamuse has been doing things to your refs. She's a well-respected editor. You could ask her why she's done what she's done, and which things she considers total no-go. I'm a bit worn out at the moment - I'll look at what you say again. I will say two things, though. Try to keep talk short, and relax. Easier said than done. Try.

Even if those people represented the general consensus of the PK/FR community--i.e. if the community that Ryan declares he's a part of didn't accept his classification--then it would

creator and its practitioners, and the definition of Parkour seems to be a subject on which they have the final say, not the New York Times. There's no distinction between 'original Parkour' and 'modern Parkour'. Parkour hasn't changed. The situation is the same as it always has been. There are people who practise Parkour, there are people who do other things, and there are people who can't tell the difference.

Marvel Comics doesn't look like a reliable source, I'm afraid - they are obviously trying to promote their products, i.e. Daredevil, and I can't imagine that they have much independent fact-checking going on. I would maybe say we could use it to cite simple facts, but there are probably better sources for the few simple facts it contains anyway.

the tereforming of a nearby planet, and no news could be reported on WP if they continued to sell an energy drink. This is just paranoid. My stub article is balanced. If there's a conspiracy among Red Bull, MTV, Marvel, WFPF, IMDb, and every online source of information on parkour, to fabricate the existence of Ryan Doyle, the next dozen sources I find could easily be in on the conspiracy, too...
264: 233: 1743:
go through that process with every, single, editor that has the exact same concerns. It would be a full time job; I can't do it, and I hope higher-level WP authorities and administrators respect that massive effort when considering the strange nature of such an instant request, and the exhaustive nature of having my character and integrity attacked. (I'm not identifying any editor(s) here.)
350: 3689:
Entertainment (not released but in which he's noted as an actor in the cast) is an example of his acting career furthering at the moment). In fact, the article doesn't even mention Airborn Entertainment and Airborn Academy which he founded and runs (and should really both have their own articles!). It should really be expanded to include these (with sufficient sourcing of course).

the guidelines, particularly the stone-carved omnipresent ostinato that sourcing in any particular scenario is a delicate balance of all possible factors and principles evaluated and looked at together in a whole picture. E.g., I utilized some of Doyle's videos--his main medium of publication--as self-published sources. They got torn down in part because YouTube/etc is
2601:. In my opinion, Squish7 either read the policies and guidelines and was unable to comprehend them, or chose to ignore them. Simply an honest and direct assessment about an editor's behavior. Nobody is perfect, but to claim to have a sure knowledge of the guidelines is questionable, based on his actions. In all regards, I sincerely appreciate your input. Best regards, 362: 3575:(that Mr. Stradivarius put the to-do list as an important new source) is practically a rewrite of the additions I had made here. Now I'm told, "Oh, well now that someone reputable agrees with your sources, we can put it in." Now no, original research isn't deemed retroactively appropriate when someone reputable has confirmed it, but I'm 4020:
copy somewhere for permanent reference. While Ryan was recovering from an operation (treatment of his 2007 leg injury), it's not completely clear whether he would have competed if he'd been able to, as the video says it only took the top 6 contenders from last year, while he was 8th, though he does state he was hoping to compete.
3292:. The origin and history are extremely important, but if more people than not who declare they study Parkour would agree that Ryan fits into the community (if we were to take a global census), then I think that by default/definition constitutes the basic statement that Ryan is a Parkour athlete. Hence, the position of the 3448:. In this case we should give more weight to the views of people who have actually studied Parkour, than to the people who just decided to use a cool name to describe whatever they happened to be doing (or have been persuaded by someone else who did that). Neither Red Bull nor WFPF can be considered reliable sources as per 1501:

Please consider your contributions to this discussion productive toward that wider goal.

nominated for deletion at one point and it was voted on as notable enough to be here. It's just bizarre to me how you're so passionate about freerunning in general (restoring the freerunning article and hoping to make it more thorough, etc), yet trivialize its major people, events, and organizations. Just weird...
3750:
This article is already on my watchlist so I'm going to keep checking and helping where I can. In my view though Ryan's fame comes simply from being the first freerunner to self-promote to this extent rather than any great ability or achievement, so I don't expect there will be a lot to add here in the future.
2327:. As a side note, when I spend time editing, this includes a review of all the sources provided, along with researching to find additional ones and working to bring the article into compliance. It all goes hand in hand. It's not for my benefit, but for that of the community, as well as for you. Best regards, 3476:
significant of the expressed viewpoints on the reliability of Red Bull, and means that even if we can find a reliable source to support Red Bull (which is unlikely) we still can't state Red Bull's statements as fact. As it is, we have to reject Red Bull's views on Parkour entirely, for a variety of reasons.
3468:
like, "Although Ryan does not fit into existing definitions of Parkour, his opinion that definitions are not important means that he often labels himself as a Parkour practitioner." That seems to be fairly neutral and inoffensive, and maybe we can include more detail about his beliefs later in the article.

From this springboard, I think your other points are also flawed in a similar way. That is, this speaks to your general reasoning behind what you feel is notable or not in the FR community. You're entitled to those opinions but the consensus on WP doesn't quite fit your standards. This article was

Given your attention to detail and proper sourcing, I'm baffled at your opinion he's not even notable enough for an article. You feel Freerunning is notable enough to be campaigning for its own article, so how can you say that a 2x winner of the most prominent global Freerunning event is not notable

beliefs and accomplishments. His philosophy and missions, etc., in life are so much more important to who he is than how he did in XYZ competition. Even if Ryan was half-competitor and half-philosopher, this would still strictly call for a statement he is both a Freerunner and Parkour practitioner.
3135:
Firstly, Ryan considers himself to practice Parkour. There is absolutely no doubt about that. He always says "Parkour" when referring to his discipline in his most polished and professional videos (video being his primary--virtually only--medium of publication, 100% quotable by the core spirit of WP

If a source gets basic facts about a subject wrong then we cannot consider it as a reliable source on that subject. Specifically, on the subject of whether or not Ryan practises Parkour, if a source gets basic facts about Parkour incorrect then it is not a reliable source. Also, Ryan himself is not a

The burden of proof or evidence and the need to meet the policies and guidelines of the community is on the editor who adds or restores content to an article. Not the other way around. This is one of the reasons why we work very hard to work with new editors. Again, nobody is perfect. As a side note,

That is the scenario with at least half of all these videos, documentaries, interviews, event footage, etc. etc. etc. etc.... Can I really not say "Ryan Doyle went to Mardin, Turkey", even though he's walking around a video that's apparently Mardin, Turkey, because it was a "personal YouTube video"?
958:
Does this not declare Ryan's personal webpage and YouTube videos definitively allowable sources for all sorts of information, i.e. biography, childhood, tastes, philosophies, etc.? And, does this not by definition welcome event dates and statistics from Red Bull (i.e. NFL / NBA stats), Ryan's status

This is for Peridon or anyone to comment on... I appreciate everyone's help so far with my first article, but there's still a huge abyss between what a lot of people have told me directly, and what I feel the spirit and wording of WP:RS cover. Particularly I've been struggling with the vehemency of

In my own personal opinion, Ryan is not a particularly notable person and it's borderline whether he deserves an article here.
