Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Tracey Emin has been reverted.
Your edit here to Tracey Emin was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZBkxqNJC9g) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. music or video) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Hi Qcne, thank you for your reply. I orginally had a short paragraph for the public reception section and another person reviewed it and said that it was boring to read and that it should include the sources themselves witu citations.
I am at a lost for this bit. I also do not feel that I have written this as an advertising piece it is quite neutral - do you have any advice moving forward ? i can however, delete the locations sections if you feel this would help with getting the page published. F. D. Notlada (talk) 20:32, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @F. D. Notlada. Basically, an article does need to be summarising existing secondary sources, but we're also not a replacement business directory nor should be modelled on the About Us page of a company's website. The Locations and Public Reception sections just don't really belong in a Wikipedia article in their current format. A brief sentence or two about public perception is all that's needed, but I notice your old version where you had a Community and Press section read very promotional, again the sort of content you'd see on their own website.
The language can be tightened up throughout too, make it formal and dry. Just pure factual descriptions based off you summarising in your own words what existing secondary sources state. qcne (talk) 20:38, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thank you. The company has so many impressive facts its proving hard to make it all seem formal and dry. But, I will re think that section into a few sentences and keep the better citation links, based on your comments. Thanks! F. D. Notlada (talk) 20:44, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think, if you do remove/condense the sections and ensure its all formal and dry - we could be in a position to accept it. qcne (talk) 20:47, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. That would be great! Thanks for your time in responding to me. F. D. Notlada (talk) 20:50, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
