Draft:Jan Poolman

  • Comment: Doesn't appear to meet WP:NACADEMIC. Don't overpopulate the details of the draft. Gives us the key points with a reliable citation. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 05:29, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: still a large amount of unsourced content Theroadislong (talk) 19:03, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: While there are many references, some paragraphs and sections have none at all. I have added citation needed tags in a few places where I felt statements needed to be supported by a reference. Mgp28 (talk) 16:45, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please don't add external links to the body of the draft, we don't use them. Theroadislong (talk) 16:46, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Content like " Moreover, he learned at an early age that one must work hard to achieve one’s goals and dreams" is absolutely not appropriate for an encyclopaedia, just the dry neutral facts are all that is required, with no embellishment. Theroadislong (talk) 17:34, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Linkedin.com and blogs are not considered reliable independent sources and we don't us external links in the body of an article. Theroadislong (talk) 15:31, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: I am sure that he probably is notable but just not on the evidence provided here. The firts two sources are supposed to confirm that he is "Head of Bacterial Vaccines at Johnson & Johnson" which they do not. In the leded it is claimed that "is a developer and serial inventor of bacterial vaccines." but I struggle to find sources here which say that. Clearly a prolific and senior scientist who probably deserves a place here but the claims need to be matched by the sources which need to be much wider than links to papers he has co-written. It would also help enormously if the references were formatted per Wikipedia's referencing conventiosn so that they can be read by a clickable link.  Velella  Velella Talk   16:15, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: ® is not required anywhere. Non neutral tone includes "successful developer" "successfully" "an expert R&D team from scratch and successfully developed" "a prolific inventor" Theroadislong (talk) 17:26, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: What is repeated mentions of "[brontekst bewerken]" about? Theroadislong (talk) 17:21, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: looks like it has been copied and pasted from somewhere? Theroadislong (talk) 20:10, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
