Your submission at Articles for creation ↗: Ásta Sigurðardóttir ↗ (October 30)

{{divbox|gray|3=The subject is no doubt notable but there are other problems here. I signaled these in an edit summary but they were not addressed. In short, the whole thing needs an overhaul, for neutral language but also for formatting issues, I see now: dates are linked, book titles need to be italicized, there are bare URLs for some of the references, capitalization in section headings, etc. etc. And then there is the sourcing: of the first four, one is clearly acceptable ↗ (but not accessible to me), but the other three are basically just internet blurbs on questionable websites that don't add anything to what the Literary Encyclopedia already offers. And then there's a bunch of totally unsourced paragraphs. All this can be done by editing judiciously, with perhaps a few cuts.|}}<!--

Unattributed translations



25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from :uk:Shorin Eduard Alekseevich ↗ to :Eduard Shorin ↗. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing ↗ '''requires that you provide attribution''' to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an '''edit summary ↗''' on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking ↗ it to the source page. Sample wording for this is given here ↗. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attribution '''must be given retroactively ↗''', for example:
: <code><nowiki>NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at :fr:Exact name of French article ↗; see its history for attribution.</nowiki></code>
Retroactive attribution may be added using a dummy edit ↗; see Repairing insufficient attribution ↗.
It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you must add attribution retrospectively ↗, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia ↗. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-translation --> <span style="color:green">''Josey Wales''</span><sup> <span style="color:#0000CD">''Parley''</span></sup> 17:10, 11 May 2026 (UTC)
