Hello, |
|||
you could help me by giving me a procedure to follow. |
|||
I have two quality secondary sources; the vast majority of paragraphs are based on these two sources. I thought that quoting them as a reference once each was sufficient. |
|||
Here are my two questions |
|||
1, do you think that Mrs Andersen with her career, her recordings ... deserves to have a page in Wikipedia? And that therefore the refusal is only due to my inexperience... |
|||
More than 70 cd's and 33 lps are listed in Worldcat for Ms. Andersen. |
|||
2, should I fill in one or both of my two sources in each paragraph for the article to be accepted? |
|||
Yours sincerely |
|||
thank you in advance for your help |
|||
Guy |

- Stephanie.thompson (talk · contribs) (TB)
Pat Allen is a prominent art therapist in the field of art therapy who has helped pave the way for art therapists such as myself. Her work has influenced the way art therapy is practiced and to exclude her from your website is taking away from the Art Therapy/ Art Therapist page as a whole. I hope you will reconsider your decision. Stephanie.thompson (talk) 00:05, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Stephanie.thompson The draft was rejected, not just declined, meaning it will not be considered further. A Wikipedia article should summarize what independent reliable sources state about a subject, showing how (in this case) the subject meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable creative professional. You offered only primary sources, which do not establish notability. Please see Your First Article for more information. 331dot (talk) 00:34, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Request on 03:14:04, 8 October 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by JBWPpw
Good Day I am working on my first sbmission (Barry Rumack). The inital version was rejected and I corrected the issues that were brought up and resubmitted it in early August. It has been acknowledged as resubmitted but noting has happened since.Is it typical that it takes this long or should I be doing somethign else. I am hesitant to try a second article until I figure out this process.
JBWPpw (talk) 03:14, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- @JBWPpw: First of all, please be aware that "rejected" and "declined" have different meanings on AFC context. "declined" means "Eh, this is not yet ready for mainspace, please improve it" while "rejected" means "This cannot be improved to be suitable for mainspace. Please stop wasting everyone's time." Your initial version was declined. Reviewing process takes a while, it is not uncommon that it takes a few weeks. As for the current revision, I am unsure if it meets WP:NPERSON. Imdb.com is not considered a reliable source. While you are waiting, you can theoretically do other stuff. Have a look at the WP:Task Center for ideas.

Hi, I tried to ad project tags to the draft page called "Origins Science", but the box for "Enter draft page title:" does not have the page called "Origins Science" as an option but it does exist, see the link here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Origins_Science.
If you could please add this page to the project tags box that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. Philandrews04 (talk) 04:51, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Philandrews04: that input box was coded badly. It expects from you that you add the "Draft:"-prefix for things to work, i.e. "Draft:Origins Science". I have already added 1 WikiProject tag for you. Victor Schmidt (talk) 11:37, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

- Crystalcommunication (talk · contribs) (TB)
This is practically my first article on this person who's work already features on Wikipedia, but when I am trying to like those work as reference or any other website as reference article why it's not been accepted as reference. Since the person is a filmmaker most of his articles are on websites which are more of PR driven websites, in such case the IMDB is only reliable option left, but unfortunately Wikipedia doesn't even accepts IMDB, in such case how would one can verify the person to satisfy the needs of Wikipedia.
The reason why I am asking this question is because there are 2-3 other interesting people I wanted to write about, they are still beginner and does not have much to talk about compare to the person I am writing about here, for such articles how do we get really deserving people featured on this platform.
Your guidance will me improve my work and will make contribute more frequently. I am quite stuck on this one article for a while to understand how to correct it and should not repeat the same mistake again in future articles. For reference you can google the persons name to understand the available source of information on web space about him, maybe that way you will be able to guide me better that which reference to take and which one to avoid.
Thanks.

- @Crystalcommunication: It's funny you should mention PR when your username happens to match a business that does digital marketing (that or this one), which is a violation of the username policy and suggestive of serious violations of our terms of use.

I have a problem submitting my draft to the article. Can you explain to me how to do it.
Spotify1451 (talk) 12:35, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Spotify1451, the current state is "Submitted for review" whcih ought to be what you woudl like. Is there any further help you need? Fiddle Faddle 12:52, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Spotify1451, Declined because there are no references.
- We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, and in WP:RS please. See WP:42. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact referred to, that meet these tough criteria is likely to make this draft a clear acceptance (0.9 probability). Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the topic is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today. Fiddle Faddle 12:55, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

{{Lafc|username=103.12.120.194|ts=13:31:49, 8 October 2020|page= Draft:Amanat Ali (born 1987)
Hi Volunteers and Administrators
First, let me make it clear that i have not been paid and this is voluntary work, else I would have disclosed it if i was getting paid. This artist Draft:Amanat_Ali_(born_1987) won music award and participated in SaReGaMaPa 2007 and was a 2nd runner up. He has sung more than two songs for bollywood movies and launched his debut album in 2009, so he is passing WP:NMUSIC and article is made on neutral point of view. My question is, there are four Amanat Ali (including him) and an editor suggested a date of birth along with his name, but i think instead of a date of birth can editor rename this page to 'Amanat Ali (Pop Singer) or Amanat Ali (Popstar) because he is not a classical singer but Pop Singer and yes he is from the family of Sham Chaurasia gharanaa musician family who has this artists Amanat Ali Khan Ustad Amanat Ali KhanShafqat Amanat Ali as Mr. Amanat Ali is a fourth generation somehow as his father Nazakat Ali was also a notable musician.
I have not seen any musician or artist whose name comes with the date of birth, as three Amanat's Ali are classical singers and this Amanat is a pop singer so the best name should be Amanat Ali (Pop Singer) as suggested by the news references.

- This has been submitted yust 2 days ago. There are 0 submissions waiting for two months already. Please be patient. Victor Schmidt (talk) 14:03, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, I am not asking for a review basically but requesting title change information.
--103.12.120.194 (talk) 14:09, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- If I am getting you rightly, you want Amanat Ali (pop singer) to be the title of the mainspace artice after this draft is accepted. I would suggested it be only Amanat Ali (singer). I would've made a draft move to the request but I will leave it on normal AfC process. Thank you ─ The Aafī (talk) 15:44, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Aafi yes you are right all 4 amanat ali are singers (two died), two are alive one is Shafqat Amanat Ali and second is Amanat Ali, while Shafqat is also a singer but he is a classical singer while this Amanat is a pop singer. so i the (singer) should be ok too.

Not clear what kind of info and reliable sources the reviewer needs to see. The information provided is neutral and factual and would be known in the aggregate only by the creator of this page. In addition the linked articles are verifiable through the links. Please help. Thanks.
- Please review WP:NPERSON. Wikipedia articles should be mainly based on what reliable (no user-generated content) independent sources (no interviews or press releases) with some coverage of the subject. This submission's sources seem to fail the independent part. Victor Schmidt (talk) 14:07, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

- EmanuelB2019 (talk · contribs) (TB)
Hello! I am writing to kindly ask you to re-evaluate publication of the Carmen Harra page. I built this page step by step over the course of six months, during which time I received Sulfurboy and MurielMary's valuable guidance. In the end, 1292simon decided unilaterally that the page was a "promotional article" without arguing his point of view in any way. MurielMary mentioned that she does not share the same opinion about the page being a promotional article. She stated, "I disagree, I don't think this article is promotional. It's actually very factual and objective. However, I don't think that the draft shows sufficient notability for Harra to have an article on WP. Writing books and appearing on TV/radio shows doesn't equal notability." I can understand that we are all subjective but I hope I am not dealing with a case of gender discrimination. I checked the sources that certify notability and I've studied Wikipedia's criteria to publish a page dedicated to a public person. Carmen Harra meets this criteria and I invite you to check as well. Here are some mentions of the name "Carmen Harra" in the databases indicated by Wikipedia to check notability: 1. The New York Times (NYT): "Most editors consider The New York Times generally reliable. WP:RSOPINION should be used to evaluate opinion columns, while WP:NEWSBLOG should be used for the blogs on The New York Times's website. The 2018 RfC cites WP:MEDPOP to establish that popular press sources such as The New York Times should generally not be used to support medical claims." https://www.nytimes.com/2003/04/27/magazine/style-change-your-life-boost-your-aura.html 2. Bloomberg (Bloomberg News, Bloomberg Businessweek): "Bloomberg publications, including Bloomberg News and Bloomberg Businessweek, are considered generally reliable for news and business topics. See also: Bloomberg profiles." https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2006-06-18/books-that-matter 3. Fox News: "FOX News was determined by consensus to be generally reliable per WP:NEWSORG." https://radio.foxnews.com/2016/08/19/how-many-types-of-relationships-are-there/ https://radio.foxnews.com/2016/05/20/how-to-know-if-you-and-your-partner-are-a-perfect-match/ 4. Santa Cruz Sentinel, Volume 148, Number 357, 22 December 2004, Page 17: "Carmen Harra's Jewelry" show at QVC. Indeed, Carmen Harra had her own jewelry line at QVC. https://cdnc.ucr.edu/?a=d&d=SCS20041222.1.17&e=-------en--20--1--txt-txIN-carmen+harra-------1 5. The Hollywood Reporter (THR) "There is consensus that The Hollywood Reporter is generally reliable for entertainment-related topics, including its articles and reviews on film, TV and music, as well as its box office figures." https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/why-psychics-are-new-have-520837 6. http://newspapers.digitalnc.org/lccn/2006225405/2016-06-17/ed-1/seq-21.pdf In addition, for the correct evaluation of the page, keep in mind the following aspects: 1. Carmen Harra has written six books that are found in the Library of the American Congress. 2. Carmen Harra appears in the Central American press, in newspapers such as the New York Post, and on television stations such as NBC New York and CBS Los Angeles. 3. Carmen Harra currently hosts her own radio show on an American station named OMTimes Radio. I have browsed many pages published on Wikipedia in recent years, about all kinds of people who have performed in their fields of activity and who deserve to be included in the most important online encyclopedia. In doing so, I noticed that this writer, who is on the same level as other public figures on Wikipedia, does not have a page. There are many similar pages already published about: Romanian beautician Anastasia Soare: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anastasia_Soare Romanian singer Andreea Balan, who has no appearance in the US press and whose career is known only in Romania: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andreea_Bălan Romanian TV presenter Andreea Esca, whose career does not span in the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andreea_Esca American psychic Colette Baron-Reid, whose page is devoid of reliable sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colette_Baron-Reid Many of the pages I listed do not meet the notability, neutrality, and documentation of the Carmen Harra page. This is why I'm so surprised that this page--which was built according to the moderators' instructions--was rejected for reasons that cannot be objectively argued. Wikipedia also indexes many people who have "stood out" publicly by committing abominable deeds or for being famous by association; in their case, notoriety over notability. But this sort of information is normal to appear in an encyclopedia. An encyclopedia like Wikipedia groups information from absolutely all fields of activity. Even though it is normal to be subjective, we must recognize the professional merits of others. I call on the fairplay of the Wikipedia community to apply the same rules to all published pages. The "Carmen Harra" page reached its present form after six months of editing and assistance from moderators who lent their precious time to help correct and verify presentation of information. Thank you and I look forward to your feedback! EmanuelB2019 (talk) 14:12, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- EmanuelB2019, I'm afraid that was tl;dr but please never use other articles as exemplars of why an article should be treated the same way as they are treated.
- An approach, and one I dislike, might be to accept the draft and expose it to the will fo the community, but that can be a salutary experienece.
- 1292simon, Sulfurboy, MurielMary, you all declined or rejected this draft. You probably would wish to be alerted to comment Fiddle Faddle 15:55, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping, Fiddle Faddle.
I strongly dispute the suggestion by EmanuelB2019 that gender discrimination has been a factor in the draft being declined by 3 separate reviewers. Cheers, 1292simon (talk) 09:00, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
- 1292simon, Fiddle Faddle, I apologize for the comparisons, in the courts it has become mandatory to refer to the solutions offered in other similar cases. My intention was just to show you that it should be decided using the same relevant arguments. Wikipedia's rules must be applied equally and non-discriminatory. I worked on this page for 6 months with two moderators and it was declined with concrete arguments, I solved the problems and then it was rejected without arguments by a third moderator. I came up with counter-arguments to which I did not receive any answer for almost 5 months. I know that moderators do volunteer work and have limited time. So are the contributors, as I strive to be. I understand the dispute with arguments, but I cannot understand the final verdicts without justification. It's like being sentenced to death without being told why your life is being taken. I think Wikipedia works on the right principles. I'm just a contributor requesting a re-evaluation of his page and I should get this within a reasonable time. I ask that other moderators than those involved so far evaluate my work and decide whether or not this topic is worth a Wikipedia page. Thank you!EmanuelB2019 (talk) 11:51, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- As an uninvolved observer, it is unclear to me what the subject is supposed to be notable for. For singing? For being a psychologist? For being an author? For being an "intuitive counselor", whatever that is? Merely existing and having multiple jobs/hobbies doesn't make a person notable, it has to be clear what the person is widely known for, and then that has to be amply established in the article, supported by reliable secondary sources that go into detail talking about the subject and their work in that area. If I mention J. K. Rowling, you know what she is notable for, and you know that there are ample news articles that go into detail about the subject, her life, her efforts writing the Harry Potter series, her charitable causes, her provocative social media posts, etc. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:58, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- EmanuelB2019, your comparison that this experience is "like being sentenced to death without being told why your life is being taken" is unwarranted. Regarding the timeline, there are approximately 3600 other drafts also waiting review, and I don't see a reason why yours deserves special treatment. 1292simon (talk) 06:45, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- Cyphoidbomb Firstly, you can not compare her to J.K. Rowling, who is a literal household name. Let’s take several other authors as examples who do hold the privilege or having a Wikipedia page but who may not be as famous as the creator of Harry Potter: Zora Neale Hurston, Sarah Osborn, Edith Wharton. Have you heard of these authors? Unless you’re a literature major, I’m willing to bet you haven’t. And yet, they are on Wikipedia because they have been published, just as Carmen Harra has. Secondly, you are picking apart the different aspects of Carmen Harra’s career, which should be taken into consideration together. Many people don’t have only one job. Or, they have a job that leads them to another one, in this case, writing books based on her work as a psychologist and counselor. Carmen Harra may not be a household name, but she is still widely known: she has written seven books that have sold internationally, she has been a successful singer since her teenage years (in fact, she was/is a very famous singer in her birth country, Romania), a host and guest on many major TV and radio networks, and a respected psychologist/therapist. The fact that she is also intuitive doesn’t entitle you to dismiss her credibility, but adds another layer of notability to her career: entire articles have been written around her intuitive abilities by national and international magazines. Might I add that Wikipedia boasts a plethora of pages built for self-proclaimed intuitives: Colette Baron-Reid, Thomas John Flanagan, James Van Praagh, and many more. In Romania, Carmen Harra is a household name. And in America, she has gained enough recognition to be deemed well-known and reputable.

- Somehow I gave off the impression that you and I were having a debate. We are not. I offered my opinion on why I think the article is problematic. You can take my opinions and use them to improve your draft, or you can disregard them. I don't care. Fighting with everybody, however, is not going to make your draft go live any faster. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:09, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
- 1292simon I do not demand a privilege, but only a correct attitude and an equal application of the Wikipedia regulations for all subjects. You can decline a page because it does not comply with the rules and say what needs to be added. It is not fair to reject a topic because it seems to you that it is promotional, without arguing it in any way. MurielMary said she didn't agree with you. Somewhere you have to be objective and fair. In your opinion, if a court has 3600 cases to be solved, it must sentence a man to death by mistake, just because there are still cases that need to be solved.EmanuelB2019 (talk) 15:59, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello, dear editors of Wikipedia! I am writing here because I am badly impressed by the fact that you do not give an international personality like Carmen Harra the "right" to have a page on Wikipedia. Why? This is the question. I read many of Carmen Harra's books, saw her on TV in America and Europe and listened to her music for over 40 years. I don't know who decides on Wikipedia and if there are other interests in the middle than the notability you claim every time. And I would agree with this harsh policy if the moderators who cut the meat and rejected the page would have arguments in the case of this decision. If a man who is an American citizen, has been singing for a lifetime, has written so many books, appeared in TV shows of some major US stations, he has no "notability", then Wikipedia seems to have lost the correct meaning of this term. I wanted to leave this comment for the moderators who "forgot" to offer arguments for their decision. I think that the moderators of Wikipedia are in an error and as a simple user of Wikipedia, I ask them to reanalyze this page. Even if you only use Google searches, you can tell if a person has "notability" or not. I am waiting for an answer that also contains arguments because what I read above from some moderators is incredible to me, it seems ambition without cause. You feel strong in relation to the page of a public person who has absolutely no guilt to be put in the corner on Wikipedia. I do not understand this attitude and this case should attract the attention of major moderators who should take all measures to ensure that the rules are applied correctly and not discriminatory. It's about the prestige of Wikipedia after all. Thank you insofar as you will be able to be equidistant and give to Caesar what is Caesar's.AndreiT2021 (talk) 06:42, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

16:03:55, 8 October 2020 review of draft by Céideadh
I have been that my article (stub) on Dario Dzamonja needs more references. I understand the reasons for this request.
But what I was trying to do here was merely to translate the original Bosnian-language Wikipedia entry and make it readable for native English speakers. I did not planning on adding to the content. Here is the page: https://bs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dario_D%C5%BEamonja
So I am just wondering how the BS original made it through the review process - since it contains exactly the same set of references as my version.
Maybe different standards apply to EN and BS versions of Wikipedia? - if so I understand. Please let me know.

Starrlightmighty5 (talk) 20:54, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- Starrlightmighty5, evidence of notability. We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, and in WP:RS please. See WP:42. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact referred to, that meet these tough criteria is likely to make this draft a clear acceptance (0.9 probability).

Why are interviews not considered reliable if they are on reputable news outlets like Bloomberg, fox business, and business insider?

- Interviews are primary sources. We prefer secondary sources for most content, and as it pertains to demonstrating notability, we require independent sources.

Requesting a re-review because the subject is the only operating hospital in the U.S. that uses aversion therapy, making it unique. Information based on 3rd party sources. Verbiage is neutral and non-promotional. Purpose of the article is to provide neutral, 3rd party information about aversion therapy techniques for addiction.
- I've took a look at it. Still no evidence of notability, in this case WP:NCORP (AFAIK there are no seperate criteria for hospitals). As for the sources:
Source | Independent? | Reliable? | Significant coverage? | Secondary? | Overall value toward ORGCRIT |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
seems to be independent | Likely historically a reliable paper | Not even two full sentences. | Probbably secondary, cant realy determine that. | ||
Published by the organisation (Yust caóunt the ocurreence of First person pronouns) | Likely a reliable source, even if its a scan | About two pages | published by the hospital, therefore WP:PRIMARY |

- Mysteriumen, Generally we expect an article to be broadly based, not relying in a single source. My normal recommendation for creating an article is to:
- Identify references that pass muster. WP:42 is a useful guide
- From the references, extract the facts that the article requires
- Organise those facts into a storyboard.
- Write the article, with the facts cited by broadly based references
- Putting the question back to you, is what you are doing/planning congruent with that concept? Fiddle Faddle 19:05, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

- There is the issue of the subject independent sources. Because the subject is a governmental database, the only truly non-independent sources are that of the government operating them, I believe.
- There is the issue of the article taking the form of an article about the controversy (is this a big problem? as it is not clear if the subject is notable without the controversy), and what are independent sources of the controversy, as such. Because the subject of the article is mostly mentioned as a controversy. From the top of my search I find four sources that each demand scrutiny.

May I please request a review of the previously-declined draft?
IMPROVEMENTS:
I was advised that the article read like an advertisement:
- I have made significant NPOV edits with the aim of achieving an encyclopedic tone.
I was advised that the article did not provide sufficient evidence of notability:
- Added newspaper articles discussing work done by the company. The articles contain significant, independent coverage of John Moore Heritage Services (JMHS), some of which are also reliable, secondary sources.
- Added reference to reliable academic journals which contain very significant coverage of JMHS. Many pieces in academic journals are primary sources and therefore do not prove notability. However, I have included the Oxoniensia chapter from Hugh Coddington and Richard Oram who are not (and have never been) JMHS employees, who provide a synthesis and interpretation of the work done by JMHS in 2013 (similar chapters appear in many of the more recent Oxoniensia volumes, but not all are available online so I thought this would be a nice one for reference).
- The other references included in this draft are significant, independent, reliable, AND/OR secondary, and may or may not prove notability (I’ll leave that to you who has more experience than I do).
Thank you for your time and consideration. Regardless of your ultimate decision, any further help/advice/feedback is always appreciated.

- UKArchaeologist I'm sorry, but the draft has been rejected, meaning it will not be considered further. A Wikipedia article must do more than tell about the subject and what they do; it must show with significant coverage in independent reliable sources how (in this case) the subject meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. For example, Ford Motor Company merits an article not just because they exist and sell cars, it does because multiple independent reliable sources have extensively written about the company and its effects on manufacturing and assembly lines. 331dot (talk) 19:32, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Here was my response to the editor: Draft talk:VING Organic Vodka From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search Contested deletion[edit source] This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (Ving Vodka is an extremely important spirit to be notated on Wikipedia for the public in regards to how the industry is changing to organic spirits in the alcohol business. Ving has affected the industry globally. As stated in the text, Ving provides education and clean consumption options that didn't exist before. Please reference the articles, awards, and press the brand has garnered. Also, there is no other spirit in the world that is focused on wellness and health in the spirits industry. There are many, many other brands on Wikipedia that have similar or, less education attributes that can clearly be misconstrued as advertisements pages for the brands eg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tito%27s_Vodka, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belvedere_Vodka, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_Goose_(vodka), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_Head_Vodka, etc. In addition, it's very important for Wikipedia to be up-to-date on women-owned businesses and how important they are to American economic growth and to inspire young women to start their own businesses. Vonge, LLC, Ving Vodka, and Flo Vinger have been certified by the WBENC, which is the most respected women's business certification.

My draft was rejected with the note "You need to cite secondary sources (such as reviews of the series) to show that it is notable" and a statement that the series is not notable enough for an article. Also a head-pat regarding how to learn to be a "New Editor" when I have been a Wikipedia contributor since 2006. I find this curious (and a little insulting) as the series is connected to the already-covered "Animated Stories From the Bible," and "Animated Stories from the New Testament," which DO have articles on Wikipedia. The sources used are some of the same as with those series, having been produced by the same production company and creative team. This new article is meant to compliment the old ones--all sources are referenced in the same fashion as in those other Wikipedia articles.
Please help me understand why those sources are sufficient for one article but not for another. Playerpage (talk) 08:57, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Playerpage (talk) 08:57, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Playerpage: your draft was declined, not rejected. Note that the fact that one artcile exists cannot be cited as an argument for the existence or not-existence of others as articles may slip under the radar, or they may have been created before today's rules were enacted. As this is a volunteer encyclopedia, we can only act on thigns we know about. As for Your draft, it is currently only sourced to imdb.com, which is not a reliable source. Victor Schmidt mobil (talk) 10:31, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Victor Schmidt: Declining vs. Rejected seems like a distinction without a difference. The article will never appear on Wikipedia unless I make changes that are vague and unspecific. You are not even the same editor who has "declined" my submission. Without more specific information as you *what* is wanted, I cannot provide it. You say that IMDb is considered unreliable, but your policy link only refers to IMDb as being controversial as of 2019, and even then it sounds like it is a gray area that can depend on the entry--and in the end the policy article says IMDb may be used as an external link, anyway. Please explain how an external link is substantially different than a source, when the point is not to provide a review, but to establish existence. This would make sense if the IMDb reference was brand new, but the "Animated Stories" series, consisting of the Old Testament, New Testament, Book of Mormon, and Animated Heroes, is a project of established animator Richard Rich and is now a good 30 years old or more. In addition, IMDb and IMDbPro are considered the gold standard for movie information in the movie industry, and have successfully defended their positions as such in court. [1][2]
The only real difference I see between my article and the earlier articles referencing the same series is an external link to television schedules regarding the episodes. Were I to add a similar link, would this satisfy the vague requirements?
Thank you.Playerpage (talk) 18:11, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- IMDB is user-editable and as such is not considered a reliable source on Wikipedia; if courts wish to consider it a reliable source, that is up to them. A link to a TV schedule does little more than confirm the existence of this series; Wikipedia articles must summarize significant coverage. 331dot (talk) 20:12, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- @331dot: Again you are now the third editor declaring the article unfit, and third with a new criteria. There are a plethora of articles on Wikipedia--and in the Britannica Encyclopedia--that do little more than reference the existence of something. Including the other articles regarding this same series. How can it be insufficient for THIS article? As a knowledge reference, I find the "Already existing doesn't mean it should" argument absurd, as is the "user-editable" argument. *Wikipedia* is user-editable. I am trying to establish the baseline article so that users with more knowledge than myself may update it as needed. And again-again-furthermore-also (*eyeroll) the only difference between this article and the acceptable earlier "Animated Stories" articles is the lack of a schedule link. Lastly, are you seriously saying that US court decisions referenced in a periodical as established as the Hollywood Reporter are unconvincing? That implies that Wiki Editors are able to place their own POV above sourcing of any kind. I await further clarification, but at this point I will refrain from commenting any more until I am able to decipher how to proceed. Playerpage (talk) 20:42, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
- Playerpage It is true that Wikipedia is not a reliable source in and of itself. Wikipedia should not be used as a source for scholarly works or other similar needs for information; readers should go to the sources articles provide to hear from reliable sources themselves- so they can evaluate them for themselves. Again, if a court considers IMDB a reliable source, that is up to them; we do not. You are free to work to change that(at the reliable sources noticeboard) if you wish. This is not about the POV of us Wikipedia editors, but about sourcing and notability standards that need to be upheld. We do our best as volunteers doing what we can when we can, but until there is a paid staff of editors here, improper articles can and will get through. 331dot (talk) 21:02, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Any article about your organization should primarily summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about it, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization. The reviewer, though declining your draft, seems to think that it is possible to do that, but you need to provide those independent reliable sources. The draft should focus less on what the organization says about itself(the History section is also completely unsourced) and more on what others say about it. You in essence need to forget everything you know about your organization and only write based on what the independent sources state. 331dot (talk) 15:57, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

You offer two external links but it's not clear that they are intended as references; see WP:CITE for information on properly citing references. Those links are just websites offering the game for sale, this does not establish notability. Mentions of niche industry awards rarely do as well. News coverage of the game, published academic papers about the game, independent unsolicited reviews of the game, are the sorts of things that establish notability. If those don't exist, the game would not merit a Wikipedia article at this time. 331dot (talk) 19:24, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

I have included independent references to support statements made about the subject of the article. Of note, I want to highlight the FDA's use of the subject's guidelines to clear develop and use patient report outcome instruments for evaluations.
Thanks for your time and please let me know if there's more that I can do.

I believe the subject is indeed notable, and I do not believe anything in the article is promotional. It is just basic facts with nothing more. I removed a couple sources and added a couple more that I think are more in line with what the editor is looking for. Thank you.

- Your draft was rejected as not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia, it won't be re-considered. Theroadislong (talk) 20:15, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Greetings,
Was confused by the reviewers comments that I need 'reliable sources', am I suppose to link to the independant news articles relating to me. If so, should I also delete the references I made within the article to the scanned documents proving what I am saying? Google and Bing's 'Knowledge Panel' lists me as a politican should I include them sources as well? Please advise.

- First, We don't care about whatever you have to say about yourself. Second, you need to cite those independent news sources, and you need a news source for EACH AND EVERY SINGLE CLAIM the article makes. The Knowledge Graph and its imitators are never a useful source (since most of the time they pull from Wikipedia). —A little blue Bori v^_^v Hasteur Hasteur Ha-- oh.... 23:46, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

I am confused about providing sources that meet eligibility as the sources quotes are from reputable news sources however I only have hard copies as the sources in question do not have online versions due to the time periods.
How many reputable sources are needed and how do mange if the reputable sources are pre-internet.
This is a small entry for a significant australian poly-artist whose works are displayed in a number of galleries as well as in the main street of a large Australian town.
Thank you

- Jack beanstalk, I have left what I hope is a useful comment on your draft, and tidied it a little. I have not made a review, simply answered your query there. Fiddle Faddle 07:48, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

- (1) We don't care about what you have to say about yourself. (2) We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. You need to provide a strong secondary source for every claim the article makes. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Hasteur Hasteur Ha-- oh.... 06:55, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

I would like to learn more about citing my own work. I tried 3 times by now but every time my page did not submit. the problem was about the citation that I made. I can't add more citations about my work as I added 2 reliable sources in my article. also, I am the one who owns the information that is taking place in my article so it cant be unreliable. I don't know why you don't accept my work.
Thank you.

Hello, you could help me by giving me a procedure to follow.
I have two quality secondary sources; the vast majority of paragraphs are based on these two sources. I thought that quoting them as a reference once each was sufficient. Here are my two questions
1, do you think that Mrs Andersen with her career, her recordings ... deserves to have a page in Wikipedia? And that therefore the refusal is only due to my inexperience... More than 70 cd's and 33 lps are listed in Worldcat for Ms. Andersen.
2, should I fill in one or both of my two sources in each paragraph for the article to be accepted?
Yours sincerely
thank you in advance for your help
Guy
