someone with no stake in GBL. So that is why I paid and contracted someone to do it for me, based on thier reccomendation of having someone with no stake in GBL fix it. They should be done today. To clarify, it is indeed a traveling exhibit. Been at
Smithsonian, Rockefeller Center, Hyatt, Marriott, One Oxford Centre, has no home. But tons of fans and a lot of people who come see it, which is why it was reccomended to me to have a wiki piece done on it. Major improvements should be made tonite. If you look at the references shown, the Trib piece, the Gazette piece, the Martha Stewart Living piece, and the wash post pieces, you will see it has several notable news sources. Sorry for not knowing how to do this commenting thing. I shall make an attempt to learn. And I get you guys passion, it is clear that is why wiki isnt such a cluster anymore. Kudos.

people. I think it is as relavant as say, the piece on Kevin Sousa a chef of a local restaurant, who has merely 2 actual links that dont go to his own restaurant. In short, I have 8 active links that do indeed go to news stories. In the past, there were more news stories, I am now learning those things dont stay active forever. In short, the web designer who specializes in wiki will have it looking wiki - appropriate in the next 48 hours and all the news references working. But I can assure you - an exhibit that over 100,000 visit annually is remarkable.
320:(although it doesn't forbid them); the mere fact that somebody paid someone else to place an article here suggests that the subject is not notable enough to have earned its way here through notability. I am holding off on an up/down recommendation right now, but it does look as if some of the news articles are more than passing mentions (e.g.

Still waiting for any improvement to the article. Today marks seven days since the article was listed, which is normally the amount of time allowed for discussion. Maybe the closing administrator could userfy the page to
Kcdcchef instead of deleting it outright? (That means take it out of Knowledge

For starters, Mr. Lovitch, you should fire that "well versed" editor who "specializes in wiki"; they clearly know nothing about
Knowledge (XXG). The article is in dreadful shape; he/she doesn't even know how to cite references. In the second place, Knowledge (XXG) strongly frowns upon paid articles

Melanie N, still learning how to do this commenting thing. The web designer doing it for me isnt done. it is as is right now because someone put the entry in, without being asked to do so and clearly not understanding wiki. I emailed wiki and got a response from wiki saying it needed to be done by

has some more context: it sounds like the creator invented this project in Kansas City, took it with him to
Washington D.C. when he moved there, and is now living in Pittsburgh and running it there. Lack of clarity on this point is one of the things that is making it difficult for me to understand
254:
I am not a wikipedian. I am merely the owner of GBL. I paid someone to write the piece, and am presently paying someone who is WELL VERSED in wiki to redo the wiki page to not only make it look like a wiki entry but to further add in the relevant references. GBL was seen in 2010 by over 100,000

unremarkable holiday display, lacks significant coverage in 3rd party sources. Google brings up only brief mentions in local news. References provided are largely to primary sources promoting the event. Prod was contested without comment or improvement.

I get the feeling (unclear, like most of the article) that this is a "traveling" exhibit, which goes to different locations or is set up in different places in different years - not just a Hyatt
Regency affair. I could be wrong.
