Talk:Lou Antonelli

message: According to the revision page, the primary editor for this article is the subject himself. The overwhelming number of edits made in the past year have been by him, and even before that he's been making a significant number of changes. 2601:151:8100:DC1:BCA4:DD7:3C9C:ACD2 (talk) 14:40, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Further evidence that the primary editor is the subject can be found on this very Talk page. I'd suggest that the conversation satisfies the first step of WP:COI guidelines on handling CoI; as I am not a frequent editor I will refrain from posting on WP:COIN, but that seems like the next step.

replies: text: I've just done a significant amount of cleanup, wikification, organization, and citation improvement. As long as a subject makes only factual contributions to an article and his conflict is declared then there's no cause for alarm. - Dravecky (talk) 22:00, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Major Conflict of Interest Violation

message: Although an unregistered user keeps adding a note that Antonelli was a "runner up" for the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 2006 and 2007, he was not a nominee in either of those years.
In 2007, the nominees were Scott Lynch, Sarah Monette, Naomi Novik, Brandon Sanderson, and Lawrence M. Schoen, with Novik winning.
In 2006, the nominees were K. J. Bishop, Sarah Monette, Chris Roberson, John Scalzi, Steph Swainston, with Scalzi winning.
So, while Antonelli may have received nominations, he did not receive enough to make the ballot.  If there were official runners up for the award, they would consist of the four people on the ballot who did not win. Shsilver 21:55, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have tried to find references and edited this article in keeping with WP:BLP. I think it should be more agreeable to the author this way as well, since I do not think the cleanup templates are needed anymore and thus removed them. ssepp(talk) 23:34, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Overall, while there are some notable things about him (most notably his Hugo nomination) I don't know if this is enough for a Wikipedia page. Hopladamus (talk) 15:04, 10 October 2019 (UTC)
