About John Kalvin

I’m John Kalvin, a Wikipedia consultant working in Wikipedia Page Content Creation with WikiWriters in London.

Many people assume a Wikipedia page is simply a matter of writing up an impressive CV. In practice, articles are accepted or declined on notability, independent sourcing and neutral tone, and promotional drafts are among the most likely to be rejected or later removed. My job is to make that process clear and to prepare content that stands up to editor scrutiny.

How I work

1. Notability assessment: I review the independent coverage that exists and tell you honestly whether a page is viable, and what would strengthen the case if it isn’t yet.
2. Source research: I identify reliable, independent references that can support each statement.
3. Content drafting: I write clear, neutral, encyclopedic text that follows Wikipedia’s style and policies.
4. Review and revision: I prepare the material for editorial review and revise it in response to feedback.
5. Ongoing care: I can help keep content accurate and up to date after publication.

I follow Wikipedia’s conflict-of-interest and paid-editing disclosure requirements on every project. If you’d like to talk through your situation, I’m happy to start with a no-obligation conversation.
