thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Graphic Design History

message: I was adding an image to this article in May 2024. I noticed the tag for more references. When I tried to source the fanciful biography of Vassilieff I was unable to bolster the claims. Additionally it was very similar to the biography on Galerie Le Minotaure. I cannot figure which came first ,the Wikipedia biography or the Galerie Le Minotaure biography. So it is either a copyright violation, or a circular reference, so of no use.
I cannot see that this article was worked on at all during the Wiki Education assignment: Graphic Design History mentioned above.
The article on Wiki France is, again, a mainly unsourced biography, but worth taking a look at.
Any reversions should be done ONLY if adding references please. Thanks. --WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 01:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:St. Augustine grass

message: I have moved the following section to this page because I think it is full of factual errors:
:Care and Maintenance
:St. Augustine is considered a high maintenance grass initially, because of the high fertilizer and watering requirements to establish a proper lawn. St. Augustine requires a good 2-3 inches of water per week, and fertilization about 3-4 times a year. In the winter, it will turn brown as soon as soil temperatures drop below 60°F, and remain dormant until spring.
Here is where I disagree with the statements:
*High fertilizer requirements are questionable. St. Augustine can thrive with minimal fertilization.
*High water is also questionable. St. Augustine is moderately drought tolerant. 2-3 inches per week?? Come on, maybe in 110+ F weather.
*St. Augustine does not turn brown until soil temperatures are far below 60 degrees, and it depends on the variety.

message: I'm trying to gather some articles in reliable sources about Prout so that someone could write a bit more about the notable aspects of the school. I'll bullet them below. I'm sure there are more in other papers too. If you add a source, make sure it's a reliable/notable one like Projo, and not a school or local paper. Leebo T/C 14:26, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I'd say the Narragansett Times is a good source for what we want to do. It's reliable, at least. Notability of sources is usually most important when the notability of the subject has to be asserted. Prout doesn't really need to assert additional notability, so it's not really a main concern.

message: User:The Legendary Ranger suggested to delete this article as "non-notable" and "lacking information".

As for "lack of information", you've got a reference to a BOOK (although in Russian). Google gives enough support for both information and notability.
