Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Arthur Wellesley, 4th Duke of Wellington, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vanity Fair. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

John Dodd (engineer) moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to John Dodd (engineer). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and Facebook and Youtube are not reliable sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. voorts (talk/contributions) 19:24, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. I agree that it should've been a draft. Having had my first article, John Morgan, 6th Baron Tredegar, approved, I can now approve drafts myself. It seems to automatically approve itself, so I am unsure as to how I can create a draft. Please could you let me know for future reference? Mac Edmunds (talk) 19:30, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
The original article still exists, and has now been connected to the relevant WikiData page. Is there a way that it could be deleted, to avoid confusion while I work on the draft? Mac Edmunds (talk) 19:32, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
I will request the article's deletion on your behalf. voorts (talk/contributions) 19:42, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello again,
Just to point out, I agree that social media platforms of Facebook and YouTube ilks, are usually unreliable sources, as not peer reviewed. However, the Facebook posts have been made by children of Dodd, who I am sure are reliably informed for obvious reasons. I can accept that this does not prove notability as it is a primary source, however I maintain that it is accurate.
As for the YouTube sources, each come from reliable independent journalists, who have columns and websites outside of YouTube. Here is a list of the relevant videos and why they're reliable:
Car & Classic: This is the platform that sold "The Beast", meaning their information would be accurate, as supplied from the Dodd family themselves.
Throttle House: Two reliable independent journalists, who have formal content outside of YouTube, and whose information would be accurate as supplied by "The Beast's" current owner.
TLBS: Presented by Jonny Smith, a reliable independent journalist who has written for magazines, and formal television programmes.
The only other video(s) are from Suzanne Dodd, daughter of John Dodd, whose information would be reliable for obvious reasons, although does not prove notability.

The fact that they're journalists outside of YouTube doesn't affect their reliability, unless they're considered experts, in which case they might be reliable outside of publication in a traditional media outlet. I recommend working on the draft more and submitting it through AfC. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:55, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

John Dodd's car

Hey! I'd recommend that you make an article on "The Beast" itself, as it seems that interestingly, it has a better claim to notability than John Dodd himself. OhHaiMark (talk) 13:22, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @OhHaiMark
I did consider that when I made the page, especially considering ‘The Beast’ is the main topic of the page.
However, I think Dodd gains notability from the engineering feat of building an aero-engined car, and not the other way around. Plus, his eccentric life outside of his car is also interesting.
Mac Edmunds (talk) 15:22, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Notability is about what sources say. If the sources primarily discuss the Beast, the article should be about that. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:54, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @BlueboyLINY. Apologies for not giving a reason. When the template was added (07/12/2015), the article only had 8 citations. As it has 28, I thought that validated my removal of the template.
