The original article was NOT written by me. I don't know who wrote it. I only made minor edits, such as publications. If that's a problem, I'm sure there is a way to solve it.
This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.
Hi, I am Dana G. Peleg. While I did make minor updates to this article before, I did not create it, nor did I make any changes that added promotion or bias. I kindly request that the COI tag at the top of the article be removed after checking for any issues. It has been over a year since the tag was placed and I don't believe there are problems with neutrality, sourcing or BLP violations. Thank you so much, Dana Danagpeleg (talk) 19:31, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'm going to remove the tag, but please don't edit further without edit requests. I'm going to revert some of your edits as well, since they are not appropriate for Wikipedia. A lot of the information here is unsourced as well, so let's add in some citations. I'll add tags to the major unsourced pieces, but you writing it won't count as an independent source. I read Hebrew, so feel free to respond with Hebrew sources if you want. -- FeldBum (talk) 19:24, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
1. Please remove the following sentence as I do not need to have it included and it's difficult to verify: "Peleg has teaching certificates for art and Hebrew language instruction."
2. Please remove the date 2008 from the following phrase as it is incorrect and unsourced: "When she returned to Israel in 2008..." Please also add the existing citation to the same sentence, which verifies our return to Israel: גלית לוי (January 15, 2010). "כשיש ילדים יוצאים מהארון בכל יום". ynet (in Hebrew). Retrieved March 26, 2019.
3. Please add these three citations to verify the paragraph about the G. in my name:
דנה ג. פלג, "מי אני, מה אני", מגזין את, מאי 1996, ע. 12*
Is there someplace I can read מגזין את online? In general, those citations would be considered first-party, since Peleg wrote the first two, but I think they would work here. I would want to read them first. Thanks, @Ocaasi -- FeldBum (talk) 12:51, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dana has paper (physical) copies. I will get them scanned via email and share with you however you feel comfortable. Ocaasit | c17:39, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What about something like this: "When her short story collection, Figs, My Love, came out in 2000, she added her last name, Peleg, but kept the G. for Gal. In 1996, Peleg wrote an essay for At magazine, entitled "Here I am/This is me" in which she explained that she was adopting the "G" as her middle initial as it better represented her contemporary identity." I'd use דנה ג. פלג, "הנה אני", מגזין את, פברואר (2) 1996, ע. 16* as the source. -- FeldBum (talk) 13:48, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This looks great! I have two suggestions:
1. My bad! The article you mention is from 2000, not 1996.
2. "but kept the G., for Gal, her previous pseudonym."
