thread_title: Broken Link

message: Bramlet, bringing your wikipedia co-founder dispute to this article is pure trolling as this article has nothing to do with the wikipedia co-founder issue. Please either bring a ref that shows that there is a connection between Louise Blouin MacBain or desist in your obsessional trolling. Thanks, SqueakBox 22:19, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There is no "co-founder dispute" or "co-founder issue", there is only the simple fact that Wales is co-founder of Wikipedia and should be so described. Thanks, Bramlet Abercrombie (talk) 22:22, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

text: If there is no dispute please stop trolling. You appear to have a problem, please do not bring it to wikipedia. Given you hate the place so much I suggest you find another hobby. Thanks, SqueakBox 14:58, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You're bringing a nonexistent dispute into this, so stop trolling and leave undisputed facts in place. Bramlet Abercrombie (talk) 17:15, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: On the contrary, you are bringing a non-existent dispute into this, and from what i understand you are doing so because you hold a grudge against Wales in real life. Thanks, SqueakBox 22:39, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I have condensed this article back to notable inclusions only, it still requires citations. I'm not certain the subject meets WP:GNG or WP:BLPNOTE. Flat Out let's discuss it 03:25, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Excellent piece of work, ! And sorely needed, too. With some hesitation I have now restored the less complimentary content that was removed by an IP shortly before you got started (which at least had some actual references, including a fairly useful interview with the Guardian)). However I feel that it probably now has undue weight in relation to rest of the article, so please feel free to take the pruning shears to it at will.

Louise Vigerhttps://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1946&dat=19790910&id=zow1AAAAIBAJ&sjid=aKQFAAAAIBAJ&pg=1501,3716531&hl=fr Blouin founded the Louise T. Blouin Foundation http://www.ltbfoundation.org/foundation.htm in 2005 with the aim of raising awareness about the role that culture and creativity can play in resolving global issueshttp://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9802E3D61E31F931A35756C0A9639C8B63. The foundation, which is a partner of the United Nations Office for Partnerships http://www.un.org/partnerships/, has two core aims: encouraging a better understanding of foreign affairs and culture beyond borders through international cooperation, exchange, and dialogue for the 21st century, and exploring the broader practical significance of creativity and the creative potential of the human brain.
In October 2006 the foundation opened the Louise T. Blouin Institute in Shepherd's Bush in west London. A gallery space combined with a centre for the foundation's work, its opening exhibition featured light installation pieces by the California artist James Turrell. Lecturers were organized to speak on the theme of art, light, and science in tandem with the exhibition included Professors Semir Zeki, Martin Kemp, and Michael Berry http://www.pureconsult.co.uk/venues/louise-blouin-foundation/.

replies: text: The tone of the proposed material is not appropriate to an encyclopaedia. Nor is it properly supported by the sources – the 1946 newspaper, for example, clearly calls her "Louise Blouin", without the "Viger". Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:36, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

text: No, , it wouldn't, for two reasons: first, it reads like a corporate press release, not like an encyclopaedia article; and second, this is a page about a person, Louise Blouin, and nothing that is not directly related to her and her life needs to be – or should be – included here. That includes any stuff about the foundation unless it is directly relevant to Blouin. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:06, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

text: Er, no! How is that relationship directly relevant to the life of Louise Blouin? (please read what I wrote above). Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:10, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

message: <Mathew Kabatoff is misspelled and has only one « t ». Then, the first reference only shows that Mathew Kabatoff is Mrs Blouin's husband and the second reference says that Mathew Kabatoff worked with the foundation. Actually Mathew Kabatoff was not an employee of the foundation. He was a contractor for the Blouin Creative Leadership Summit at the same time he was a PhD student at London School of Economics and Political Science. Justlettersandnumbers, I really appreciate your assistance on this.> Lbm user2015 (talk) 07:31, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Good request, clear and simple, and based on the sources. Please don't post in the article again. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:27, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: That morsel of trivial ephemera is sourced to Artinfo, which Blouin owns. Wikipedia is based on what is reported in independent reliable sources, not on what people say about themselves (or get their employees to say). , may I suggest that you learn a little about the workings, practices and policies of Wikipedia before you make any more requests? Why not try making a couple of thousand edits to articles where you have no possible conflict of interest, so as to get a more realistic idea of what we're trying to do here?

replies: text: Thanks for noticing that, . I replaced it with an archived version of the Toronto Star article, not sure if it's the same text, but it's surely a useful source. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 16:53, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

text: No thank you. You expect us to add something with such an obviously promotional phraseology - have you learnt nothing about WP:NPOV? Edwardx (talk) 13:03, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
