07:57:50, 13 July 2019 review of draft by Falconite007


Hello, I submitted my draft again after some revisions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Supernode_Proof_of_Stake It's been pending for about a month now. I'm just a bit confused since the last few times the reviews took about a week's time. Hope I did not make any mistake while submitting.

Falconite007 (talk) 07:57, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Falconite007. The draft is in the pool to be reviewed. The current backlog is 16 weeks. Reviewers are volunteers and are not required to go through drafts in any particular order. Some fish among the newest, perhaps looking for ones that can be quickly failed or accepted. That may explain why your earlier versions were disposed of quickly. Check back near the end of October. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:10, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Trying to get an article published, added in quotes and properly cited the sources but no word on whether or not the page has been published as of yet.

Mizumakipswada (talk) 18:41, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You have not submitted it for review yet, but before you do you will need to find a number of independent reliable sources, your draft Draft:Jean-Marie Haessle has none so far.

GipsyG (talk) 23:10, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

hi. why so long to review this edition of the draft? thx.

Hi GipsyG. The draft has been in the pool to be reviewed for 7 weeks. The current backlog is 16 weeks. Reviewers are volunteers and are not required to go through drafts in any particular order. Some fish among the newest, perhaps looking for ones that can be quickly failed or accepted. That may explain why your first version was declined on the day it was submitted. Work on something else while you wait (Wikipedia:Community portal lists ways to help) and try to find solace in the fact that there is no deadline. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:58, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm assuming that I have met all the qualifications for getting this article approved. It has been MORE than 2 months now. I would appreciate an expedited approval/publishing of this article or a reason why it's taking so long. I understand you're backlogged, but this has been going on forever. Thank you!

Hi Carlis Rowe. You (if you are the Carlis Rowe you wrote about) are not notable (not suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia). Rejection of the draft is meant to be final, to convey that you should stop, that no amount of editing can fix the problem. You may wish to consider alternative outlets, with different inclusion criteria, for what you've written. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:36, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

09:04:51, 14 July 2019 review of draft by Gyllila


Dear Madam/Sir,

Could you tell me how to find out who decided to redirect the search for “convertible money“ to “gold standard”? As much as I know, the two terms are related, but not the same, thus I decided to create a page for “convertible money”.

My submission has been declined twice, because the reviewing users thought that “convertible money” is not widely used and not of public interest. However, if it were so, then nobody would have created a redirection page for “convertible money“ in first place. I guess that’s because they are different users and thus differently well informed, therefore I’d like to directly contact the user or users who have created the redirection. Maybe they can create a page on their own or give me more references so that I can better create the page.

Can you tell me how to find them? Many thanks! Gyllila (talk) 09:04, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gyllila: - hi there. Skysmith created the redirect...and impressive 11 years ago. Most editors of that era aren't around, but Skysmith does occasionally edit, but only rarely. Have you tried setting out the specific differences talking to the reviewers. The sources would need to set out a fairly substantive difference to make it a distinct article - but additional sections to the gold standard article might be an alternate possibility. Nosebagbear (talk) 15:04, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Strike that - much better answer underneath! (please no duplicate questions) Nosebagbear (talk)

11:51:37, 14 July 2019 review of draft by Gyllila


Thank you for the reply. However, can you please be more clear about the reason? Is it declined because it only contains definition or is it declined because of lack of public coverage? For the first, it’s no problem to add the theory and modeling part, but to the latter, I don’t know how public is public enough for you. “Convertible money” is automatically redirected to “gold standard“ on your site, why did you create this redirection if it’s not of public interest? Maybe another user did that? Can you please tell me how to contact her? Because “convertible money” is only related to “gold standard “ but not the same, it would be misleading to cover them in the same page. In my previous research I never found any source which equates convertible money with gold standard, but I’m also open for different statements which fulfill the criteria you have mentioned to me.

Best regards Gyllila (talk) 11:51, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Gyllila. If you click on Convertible Money you'll be redirected to article Gold standard, but in the upper left corner of the page, under the page title, will be the text (Redirected from Convertible Money). If you click that link, you'll go to the Convertible Money page without being redirected. You can investigate its history like any other page, by clicking the view history tab near the top, to right of centre. The page was created in November 2005‎ as a one sentence definition. This suggests, incidentally, that the expression may not have been first introduced in Guo (2018). The page was turned into a redirect in May 2006‎ by an editor who now edits infrequently. You may leave a message on their talk page, but it's unlikely that you'll receive a quick reply or that they will remember one edit made 13 years ago out of their 23,000 edits.
A redirect does not mean that "convertible money" is equivalent to "gold standard". It only means that Wikipedia doesn't have an article named "convertible money", but that some relevant information can be found in gold standard. Redirects are not deleted if it is plausible that someone might search for the term. People do search for it, but very rarely, only 50 times in the past six months, and there's no way to tell what they wanted information about, perhaps convertibility, perhaps gold standard, perhaps convertible money. One can't assume from the existence of the redirect that there's a public interest in having an encyclopedia article dedicated to the term.
You may continue with the draft, but it would need to cite more than the work of one economist to be accepted. It would also be good if the draft were more than a definition, although a definition might be accepted as a stub article as long as it is clear that the expression is not a neologism. According to Google Ngram Viewer, the expression first appeared in books in the 1870s, its peak usage was from about 1905 to 1910, it saw a modest resurgence from the mid-1930s to about 1960, and a blip of usage in the 1990s. Writing a new encyclopedia article is one of the most difficult, time consuming, and frustrating things an editor new to Wikipedia can attempt. You would be more likely to succeed at it if you spent some time becoming familiar with the workings of Wikipedia, perhaps by editing existing articles in the scope of Wikipedia:WikiProject Economics, if that's your area of interest. You can always return to convertible money later. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:36, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. It is totally inappropriate in tone, it has no sources and appears to be autobiographical. Wikipedia only reports on what reliable sources have said. Theroadislong (talk) 12:16, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have added more depth to the references including an international article on one of the founders. Is there enough detail in this article to get it published or am I needing a lot more to get the first publish approved?

Mattcoopz (talk) 00:13, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mattcoopz. Rejection of the draft is meant to be final, to convey that the topic is not notable, so you should stop. No amount of editing will make an article about it acceptable.

10:21:34, 15 July 2019 review of submission by Softball beasts


Hi there. I'm trying to create an article for my softball club which has been declined due to unverifiable sources. The source I'm citing is the results printed on the website of the federal governing body for the sport in my country. I'm not sure what further source I can cite that would be more verifiable than this. Could you possibly help point me in the right direction? I was modelling my article based on another club in my town that has started this year and only cites news articles, yet their article for the club was accepted and published ( Basel Dragons AFC).

If you could help or suggest a route to investigate what sources are acceptable for a sports club it would be very much appreciated. Best regards, SB Softball beasts (talk) 10:21, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Softball beasts, Since you are one of the member of the subject, you have a conflict of interest here. Please note that Wikipedia strongly discourage editor with COI to create or edit the affected page as it is hard to write the content in nuetral point of view. Pls declare your COI in the article talk page and your user page. The sources we need are independent, reliable such as from the newspapers, books or reliable journals. The sources you provided are not independent since they associated with the subject. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 13:11, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear sir/madam --

I recently asked for help in getting a timely review of a draft Wiki page that has been pending for over 10 months, and I received this "sharp" reply from "Worldbruce." Please note that my message below was drafted in an effort to solicit help, nothing else. "Worldbruce" did not explain if the review can be expedited given the fact that it has been rejected multiple times over the last 10 months. If nothing else, can you offer guidance re: whether the current draft will stand a chance of being accepted?


"Hello -- can you please provide an estimate of when W. Patrick Murphy draft page will be reviewed? It has been pending for 10 months, and I really need someone's help with getting it approved. Please help! We have revised this page countless times.

Thank you very much.

Hello. I am looking for specifics on why Draft:VS. System 2PCG was rejected and what I can do to make sure it is published in the future. Thank you! Pmurray123 (talk) 14:50, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Pmurray123: - it was declined (not rejected, which is similar but indicates the reviewer thinks it's a permanent decision), on the grounds of notability.
In short, the sourcing you have isn't good enough - you need multiple sources that are secondary, reliable, independent and in-depth. Your sources don't meet all those conditions. The game may not be big enough to have generated that level of suitable coverage, I don't know. Nosebagbear (talk) 15:11, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

14:50:17, 15 July 2019 review of draft by Iattp


Hi there, thanks for taking the time to go over the article on Ljupčo Santov Gymnasium Kočani so quickly. Regarding the need to cite sources, I basically translated it all from the Macedonian page:

https://mk.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%A3_%E2%80%9E%D0%89%D1%83%D0%BF%D1%87%D0%BE_%D0%A1%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%B2%E2%80%9C_-_%D0%9A%D0%BE%D1%87%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8

I do work at the school, but only in the capacity as a Peace Corps volunteer. A lot of the Macedonian page was NOT included, as it was quite subjective and contained outdated and false information. Is there something in particular that needs citation? I could do some research and try to get information from the ministry, but it's very hard to get that kind of stuff out here in Macedonia.

Thanks,

Nick

Request on 15:17:17, 15 July 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Ryn 112


I have been advised that the detail I have placed on the wiki page that I have submitted for Mark Leake cannot be accepted as it infringes copyright regulations. The detail that has been written was taken from Mark's own university people page with his permission and run past him before placing on the webpage to ensure that he was happy with the content, is this not enough to allow it to be used? Thank you for your support

Ryn 112 (talk) 15:17, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ryn 112. The source page states "© University of York", so Leake doesn't have the power to grant a license to reuse it. There are mechanisms by which the University could "donate" copyrighted material (see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials), but the effort probably isn't worth it. Material written for places other than Wikipedia was written for a different purpose, so it is rarely suitable for the encyclopedia. Such text almost always has to be rewritten anyway.
Also note that the bulk of any article should come from independent sources, so not from Leake or his employer. Furthermore, a draft should not be "run past him ... to ensure that he was happy" with it. It is not his article, but an article about him. If you're concerned about making him happy, you have a conflict of interest, and it would be a bad idea to write about him on Wikipedia at all. --Worldbruce (talk) 19:25, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 18:59:29, 15 July 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Fede-isr


 Hello, I do not understand why my article was not published. I do believe it contains sufficient references to credible and reputable sources. Furthermore, this persons role in the financial technology industry, particularly in its regional development in Latin America  merits an encyclopedia article. If in fact the neutrality of the entre is the reason why it was disapproved, please advice on how I can improve it. Thanks!

Fede-isr (talk) 18:59, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Fede-isr The draft is full of empty marketing-speak used to promote the subject without imparting or plainly summarizing verifiable facts.
  • "advancing and creating opportunities for ... technology solutions to gain recognition in global markets"
  • "initiative presented financial technology companies, the opportunity to present and incorporate their solutions into Citi's core digital capabilities, accelerating the bank's development through Crowdsourcing solutions and generating an Open banking strategy."
  • "platform has provided fintech integration services"
  • "The core idea behind the program is to increase collaboration and enhance inter-operability between players in the new connected ecosystem of solutions and in the process foster the rapid growth of the financial industry globally."
  • "in order to provide fintech innovation programs designed to accelerate the digitalization of the financial industry and promote financial inclusion through innovative technologies."

21:53:24, 15 July 2019 review of submission by FpsJimbo


Resubmitting for approval, the first draft I made I lacked vital information, and was submitted with place holder templates, since then I have put every effort to make it a notable entry for Irish MMA fights and across the world over.

Kinda ask for your approval of this wiki page.

Regards, James

FpsJimbo (talk) 21:53, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi FpsJimbo. The reason for the rejection still stands. The notability criteria for MMA fighters (criteria for inclusion in Wikipedia) call for a minimum of 3 profession fights for top-tier MMA organizations. Of the organizations that Queally has fought for, only Bellator is top tier, and he has only fought for them once. If he fights for them twice more, the topic can be reconsidered. --Worldbruce (talk) 22:14, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response. If you believe, now that you've added a second reference, that the reason given for the rejection no longer applies, then you may resubmit the draft to have it re-evaluated. To do so, add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the draft. Wikipedia's inclusion criteria discount sources designed to hype an album release, and put a premium on critical analysis and objective post-release measures. Until the album is released, I think any article about it is likely to be redirected to the band article as "too soon", but I could be mistaken. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:45, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Some time ago, we submitted a Wikipedia article about our company for independent community review. I know we have to be patient, but I wanted to ask about the status of the process. Is there anything we can do to speed up the review? There was a scam targeting us.

06:10:53, 16 July 2019 review of draft by Pequena Princesa


I have submitted this article twice. When I resubmitted, I addressed the three comments made by the declining reviewer: (1) use of YouTube references - all are gone now (2) use of the subject's website as a source - removed (3) use of placeholders for photos - removed. I now have all independent, reputable sources not at all related to the subject. Yet now another reviewer has declined the article, telling me that I need independent, reputable sources not at all related to the subject. There is a comment about articles tangentially referring to the subject: that may be true of 2 or 3 out of 14 articles but certainly not all or even most. It seems that the goal post keeps on moving, reviewer to reviewer, and every time I comply with one reviewer's demands the next reviewer makes more of his/her own. This last reviewer's comments are simply not true, as if he did not read the sources and simply copied the grounds for declining. Is there any form of appeal?

14:49:32, 16 July 2019 review of submission by Colaguy101

The rejection reason is given as no secondary sources to confirm. I can answer any questions as the article is about my own profile. I am an author of books, hence I can answer any questions related to them. I am the secondary source for the article. Colaguy101 (talk) 14:49, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Colaguy101. Wikipedia's content is determined by previously published information rather than the personal experience of editors. You and any answers you might give to questions are not a source that may be used on Wikipedia unless that material has been published in a reliable source, such as a textbook, an academic journal, The New York Times, the Los Angeles Review of Books, etc.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:47, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To whom it may concern,

I've been trying for a while to publish my page, The Fine Art Group, on Wikipedia. Unfortunately it keeps getting rejected - mostly for a lack of significant coverage.

However I believe that I have used plenty of reputable third-party sources to evidence my article, including Bloomberg, The Art Newspaper, Vogue, Christie's, and Antiques Trade Gazette.

Any advice that you can give on how I can improve the chances for my article to be accepted would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,

18:14:08, 16 July 2019 review of draft by Williamword


Hi - for the draft of GFP Real Estate, would like to understand how to change to get this approved or how it reads like an advertisement.

"Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies."

The topic is relevant and worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia.

The article is factual and references the following sources:

5 references for New York Times 4 references for Commercial Observer (notable real estate industry source) 3 references for The Real Deal (notable real estate industry source) 1 reference for the Financial Times 1 reference for POLITICO

plus assorted other industry articles and sources for 20 references total. One reference was to their company website to confirm the corporate address. Could that be the cause for rejection?

The article was written neutrally, conveying what the referenced articles outlined. Not sure what needs to be edited out to make it acceptable in this instance.

thanks much William

Williamword (talk) 18:14, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft is certainly not written neutrally, it is full of trumpery "one of the significant developers within New York City" "the firm has acquired 10 properties with the acquisitions comprising more than 2.7 million square feet and valued at over $1.3 billion" "visionary philanthropist" " industry's most influential people".

To whom it concerns,

I submitted a draft of a Wikipedia page as mentioned above, but it was declined primarily because of notability purposes. I am confused because I included many reliable secondary sources. At this point, I am wondering if it is worth the effort to rewrite and resent a draft for potential publication if you don't like all the sources I have already provided. Looking for any guidance, thank you.

Irish Birdcatcher (talk) 23:49, 16 July 2019 (UTC) My article was deleted, (on Trumpator the horse) and I know it was a short article but it has reliable sources and its a proven real horse. Its not a joke about Donald Trump.[reply]

Hi Irish Birdcatcher. I assume that by "My article was deleted", you mean Draft:Trumpator was rejected.
Your thesis seems to be that Trumpator should be included as a stand-alone article because he sired one or more major winners. One of the WP:NEQUESTRIAN criteria says horses may be presumed notable if they meet the general notability guideline (GNG) for being the sire of a major competitor. "If they meet GNG" means received significant coverage in multiple, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject.
More discussion and analysis is needed than is provided by a pedigree. Seek advice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Horse racing about where to look for detailed coverage. They'll be familiar with the British racing / breeding press of that period. Perhaps something like this might be a start, although it isn't much more than a pedigree in prose form. If you can find three in-depth sources, ensure that they leave no claim in the draft unsupported. The only source in the current draft doesn't say anything about Trumpator being leading sire or siring Sorcerer. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:01, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@EPICGAMER890: - this was rejected because there wasn't sufficient secondary source coverage that was both reliable and independent. It was rejected rather than declined because the reviewer felt that you wouldn't be able to find enough (not just not enough atm).

First of all, I don't appreciate the rude tone of the comment left by the reviewer DGG on my page. I'm very familiar with what wikipedia is and how it works so their comment were completely unnecessary. I've provided ample verifiable and independent references for this subject and all of them are NOT just press as the reviewer mentioned. If someone can provide some actual assistance as to how I can improve this article and get it up to the standard to be moved to the live space instead of leaving potentially biased and condescending comments on my talk page, that would be greatly appreciated.

@Dsmith167: - a re-review on the grounds that the initial reviewer was wrong is usually done in a couple of days. A re-review because an error was highlighted and a fix has been attempted is roughly treated as a new submission (time-wise). As such, we have some drafts that have been waiting nearly 100 days.

@Tdurotoye: - I question the reliability of the sources.

I know this band is not very popular, but I still think the articles for them are worth being on Wikepedia. Thanks for the feedback! -BeatBro

I added several references which describe his status as a Roshi in the White Plum Asanga, his writings, and the dance performances which use his work.

Kimhancey (talk) 02:01, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kimhancey. I don't see anything in what you've added that would make the draft acceptable. You may wish to consider alternative outlets, ones with different inclusion criteria, for writing about Silberberg. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:13, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

07:28:27, 19 July 2019 review of submission by NicoleSangster


I have tried to create a wikipedia page that is not biased or advertising Simworx, however it is still being rejected. Do I need to remove some of the detailing even though they have sources? I need guidance on how to get our page accepted.

NicoleSangster (talk) 07:28, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi NicoleSangster. The draft doesn't demonstrate notability because it cites the wrong kinds of sources. It relies heavily on trade publications (Blooloop, Attractions Management (and other titles from The Leisure Media Company), NewsParcs, Park World, Leisure Management, Euro Amusement Professional, Insider Media, InterGame, InterPark (UK), and Live Design). Because of their limited audience and often too-cozy relationship with companies in the industry they cover, trade publications don't help establish notability.
Most of the other sources are companies which are partners with, or customers of, Simworx (Air Zoo, City of Dreams Manila, Groupo Parques Reunidos, iP2 Entertainment, RoboCoaster, Sun World Ba Na Hills). They are not arms-length. They have a vested interest in promoting what they got from you. These sources also suffer from a lack of depth about Simworx. Several don't mention it at all, and others mention it only in passing. Theme Park Construction Board is user-generated, so it is not a reliable source. Wisata Bandung is a trivial mention.
Scholarly sources (books and academic journals) are usually best. Notability can also be demonstrated by high-quality journalistic sources with a broad audience, such as The Guardian, The Financial Times, the BBC, and the like. The reviewer has rejected the draft because no sources appear to exist that would establish the notability of the topic. Consequently, no amount of editing will get your page accepted. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:47, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

after getting some advice, i have corrected the issues raised. and have added additional information and references, i'm now after a review to see if my revisions have suitably improved the page enough to be created.Rockwizfan (talk) 08:59, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

More reference links added to the article as requested. Please review again and provide your feedback. Dalugama (talk) 09:09, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dalugama. The draft has been returned to the pool to be reviewed. You may continue improving it while you wait (the current backlog is about 4 months). There are general suggestions in Help:Your first article and Wikipedia:Article development. Specifically, it's a bad idea to place more than about 3 inline citations after a single simple sentence. Either squeeze more content out of some of the sources, or eliminate the weaker sources (the non-independent ones, the ones from sources that don't have a solid reputation for fact-checking and accuracy, and the very brief ones). Also, one external link to the organization's home page is fine, but try to convert the other external links into references by expanding the article and citing them. There shouldn't be a large number of external links. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:29, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My post was rejected with the response "Undefined" - it would be helpful if someone could tell me why it was rejected so that I can fix it. I have placed references in the document inline. I don't know what else I am supposed to do...

11:31:59, 19 July 2019 review of submission by HHelvis


Hello. So my review got stopped because of this reason - "Basically a press release" and no more explanation. How can I know that someone will think of it as PR when it's not like that? Other exchanges have the same type of Wikipedia text, but mine is a "press release" How can I improve it so by that user opinion it does not look as a press release? What should I do? HHelvis (talk) 11:31, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

HHelvis The topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. Please wait until you can find multiple in-depth coverage in reliable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 11:37, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How can I now re-submit for approval, I added more resources. I don't have an option to re-submit it. I see a STOP sign.

@HHelvis: The reason for the STOP sign is that rejection is meant to be final, to convey that the topic is not notable (not suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia). No amount of editing can fix that. There is no option to re-submit because volunteers do not intend to review it again.
What should you do? You are welcome to write about something else; we have nearly 6 million topics to choose from. In light of Wikipedia's general sanctions on blockchain and cryptocurrency pages, if you want to write about that sphere you may wish to explore alternative outlets. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:06, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Then tell me what is the difference between Binace exchange Wikipedia and ours - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binance It the same type, then it's should be blocked also!

@HHelvis: - it's worth reading WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS on that, but I'd also note that Binance includes sources tech crunch, fortune, cnn and cnbc (the latter two are due to a major theft, but notability can be generated from bad coverage too) Nosebagbear (talk) 14:45, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Can you please tell me why my article on the London (Canada) Chamber of Commerce was rejected, but this on about the Guelph Chamber of Commerce is ok? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guelph_Chamber_of_Commerce Both use primary sources...

Or is it because the Guelph one is longer?

Kristen Duever

@KristenDuever: - yours is not suitable as it stands because there aren't any non-primary sources. However you were right to point out the Guelph one - it's currently been nominated for deletion as unsuitable for much the same reason. Nosebagbear (talk) 20:13, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

20:30:24, 19 July 2019 review of draft by I edit things that come to mind


I came across this article and noticed that it was never submitted for creation despite other articles having a link to it and appearing on the search bar. My guess is the creator made a mistake in not making it into a draft first, so I decided to move the page into a draft and submit for creation. However, a warning appeared on the page saying "The page Type 07 Vertical Launch Anti-submarine rocket redirects to Draft:Type 07 Vertical Launch Anti-submarine rocket. Please ensure it is not a copy or that this page is located to the correct title". I can ensure it is not a copy, but I'm wondering if there is something I need to do to fix this.

@I edit things that come to mind: Articles are not required to go through AfC, so that was a bad reason to move it to draft space. Return it to main space unless you have a better reason than that for having moved it. --Worldbruce (talk) 21:51, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why this doesn't qualify as an article. I have created most of the album articles for Avalon the group over the past few years. I am not being paid for the creation of this information. I copied the info over from the previous album and filled in the known information on the upcoming album. Why does this article keep being rejected? I have provided 2 sources to prove the validity of the information. Thank you. Tidushuyin (talk) 00:06, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
