01:28:20, 28 September 2021 review of draft by J5320219


Hello, I can't really understand the reason not being accepted. It says "the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article". Should I add something else in the article? J5320219 (talk) 01:28, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • J5320219, Draft:Vincent Mattera says (after markup-stripping): This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Which three of the (of course published, reliable, and secondary) sources show significant coverage? Specify them below. As for your other draft, in this edit you had your little fun with comments made by Theroadislong. This edit of yours was silly, childish and disruptive, and if you continue to make such edits you will be prevented from making any edits at all. -- Hoary (talk) 04:28, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

08:58:31, 28 September 2021 review of draft by Mtmh2


I am not affiliated to the hospital and I provided several links to news media that is certainly not paid for the article. Please advice me so my wikipedia project can be published.

Mtmh2 (talk) 08:58, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mtmh2 I'm curious as to how you came to edit about this hospital company. In any event, a Wikipedia article must do more than tell of the existence of a company and what it does. It must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. Press releases, the company website, brief mentions, announcments of routine business activities, and other primary sources do not establish notability. Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 10:35, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

10:52:03, 28 September 2021 review of submission by Amandawil

Hi! My draft has been rejected on the following grounds:

"This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. Neologisms are not considered suitable for Wikipedia unless they receive substantial use and press coverage; this requires strong evidence in independent, reliable, published sources. Links to sites specifically intended to promote the neologism itself do not establish its notability."

The reviewer has left the following comment: "Please discuss whether this is a actual term at the WikiProjects"

Can anyone please help me identify if "dose effect" is an actual term or not? Also, I would appreciate it if someone could help me with improving my referencing. Thanks a lot! Amandawil (talk) 10:52, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Amandawil (talk) 10:52, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Claims implicating human health and healthcare are held to a much higher standard than practically all other content on Wikipedia, and one could very credibly make the case this article would need to heed that higher standard. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 16:05, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Laurensagebrowning (talk) 19:48, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi my draft of Marissa Chibás was not accepted and I got a note of COI, but I do not think that applies. Could I recieve help in specifics of my post that read like endorsements as I believe it is all factual. Thanks.

Laurensagebrowning How did you come to write about Marissa? As noted by the reviewer, you need to summarize independent reliable sources that are completely unconnected with her. 331dot (talk) 19:54, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

21:19:10, 28 September 2021 review of submission by Noahpdoty

Hi, I submitted this draft and it was denied, and I made the requested revisions. I was hoping I could get someone to take another look at it and give me some feedback (or just accept it). Thanks! Noahpdoty (talk) 21:19, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

21:43:39, 28 September 2021 review of submission by Dixiebella

My submission was rejected as "contrary to the purpose" of Wikipedia. What does that mean? How can I correct the submission. I'm new at this. Dixiebella (talk) 21:43, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dixiebella The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. It is just an essay, without sources. A Wikipedia article must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a subject, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of notability. Please see Your first article. Be advised that successfully creating a new article is the absolute hardest task to perform on Wikipedia. I might suggest using the new user tutorial, and spending time editing existing articles first, to get a feel for how Wikipedia operates and what is expected of article content. 331dot (talk) 21:48, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

21:48:59, 28 September 2021 review of draft by 2A00:23C5:9F0E:6200:5CDA:FBAA:4299:2746


Please get this article reviewed by who can read Bengali - else they will not be able to understand the references and this is why it is getting rejected. 2A00:23C5:9F0E:6200:5CDA:FBAA:4299:2746 (talk) 21:48, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I sincerely doubt that is why the draft is being declined. It's more that you're citing our sister project Wikisource; we generally don't accept cites to Wikisource any more than we accept cites to Wikipedia. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 22:49, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

22:04:06, 28 September 2021 review of submission by Dixiebella

I have added to source for this page. Dixiebella (talk) 22:04, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As the draft was rejected, it will not be considered further. Please read my comment above; we need multiple independent reliable sources to summarize, not just one. If you have additional comments, please edit this existing section, instead of creating additional sections. 331dot (talk) 22:22, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

13:43:49, 29 September 2021 review of submission by Emmarose12


Hello my username is Emmarose12 and I corrected my article Multimmersion on September 15 before re-submitting it to your team.

I would like to know what is the problem with my article, and how can I fix it so it can be posted.

Thank you in advance for your kind help.Emmarose12 (talk) 13:43, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]


Emmarose12 (talk) 13:43, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Emmarose12: Apologies for the wait. From the looks of this, this reads like a research essay or some sort of native advertizing (we don't use (TM) or (R) or any similar trademark/copyright symbols). Even if the sources are valid, which I'm in no position to say if they are (Copy required), the article would need to be substantially rewritten. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 16:47, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The draft contains references to Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3, but there are no figures. Either they have been removed, or they should not have been referred to in the first place. Portions of the draft read like an advertisement for the proprietary Multimmersion system. Wikipedia is not for advertising. Portions of the draft are marketing buzzspeak.

17:41:15, 29 September 2021 review of draft by Samuel-Rothstein


Hello, my article submission to Articles for Creation was not accepted. The reviewer left a comment stating that "Youtube etc are not considered sources (except special circumstances)." However, the article itself is about a viral Youtube video, so that video itself was referenced. Therefore, this is not a secondary source. Given this context, is this a sufficent reference? Samuel-Rothstein (talk) 17:41, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Samuel-Rothstein: you are correct the reviewer missed some vital information. They should have stated that none of the references are considered reliable as none of them are independent. The first reference is to the video it self and should not be used as a reference and instead be only list as an official link. A Youtube link is only considered reliable if it from a source that we already consider reliable, with the proper editorial oversight and fact checking. This would include most news media and the like. In order for this to be considered notable you need to base the article what others have said about in published reliable sources. Generally a rule of thumb is 2-3 independent published reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 17:49, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

18:31:31, 29 September 2021 review of submission by Emmachernandez

Hello! I have modified Conor Allyn's article a couple times to prove his notability but it has not been approved! I looked up the guidelines of notability and he seems to fall within those guidelines as he is a director and producer for award winning films and has had his work applauded in publications such as New York Times, LA Times, and the Hollywood Reporter. I have contacted the editor on the talk page and have not received feedback. Is there anything you know of that I can do to improve my odds of getting my article accepted? Thank you!

Request on 08:56:19, 30 September 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Oyindebrah


I stumbled on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abimbola_Fashola. So I decided to create Wikipedia pages for first ladies in Nigeria.

Apparently I am starting with Kebbi state. I am having issues with the page, the person is a first lady of a state, she sits on an international board. had done quite a lot of things on cancer which I have also reported but the message reviewers keep leaving is about her notability.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Zainab_Bagudu

Here is the draft above, please help

Oyindebrah (talk) 08:56, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPOL does not grant a presumption of notability to people on NGO boards or to first ladies/husbands. Please refer to the top table here:
Only one of your sources is usable, and even then it's not a particularly good one. The notability threshold has not been met, let alone the biographical sourcing requirements. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 22:01, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

dear Colleagues I wanted to improve the article "Throat Singing" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throat_singing, but it is a DISAMBIGUATION PAGE, not a regular article Then, I edited with an explanation about the subject, that was regarded as not suitable by a reviewer I also started creating a page on "Throat Singing Techniques", that has a different meaning than "Throat Singing", but the reviewer did not accept it and suggested that the contribution could be transferred to the existing one. BUT HOW CAN A DISAMBIGUATION PAGE BE CONVERTED INTO A REGULAR WIKIPEDIA PAGE? Thanks a lot Leo Fuks

19:11:12, 30 September 2021 review of draft by DamesnetV


Why is this being declined when it contains more references than some articles that have been published? DamesnetV (talk) 19:11, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@DamesnetV: We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Every claim about a living or recently-departed person that could potentially be challenged for any reason what-so-ever MUST be cited to a strong, in-depth, third-party source that corroborates it or (if no such sources can be found) removed. This is a HARD REQUIREMENT when writing about such topics on Wikipedia and is NOT NEGOTIABLE.A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 21:18, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

04:39:55, 1 October 2021 review of draft by Sutatatabunwa


My draft has been repeatedly declined on the basis that it does not meet the criteria for notability of music-related topics, but I have already provided sources proving that

1. the band in question has been the subject of or mentioned in multiple nation-wide published works that are reliable independent and not self-published, including books, newspaper and magazine articles

2. the band has had multiple albums in a national music chart (in this case, Japan's major music chart Oricon)

3. the band has released multiple albums from an important indie label (P-VINE, which has Wikipedia articles in both Japanese and English)

4. the band is internationally recognized as a prominent example of the Japanese shoegaze scene

5. the band has performed music for a notable work of media (in this case a theatrical performance featuring Rina Ikoma, who has Wikipedia articles in both Japanese and English)

6. the band has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio network (in this case TBS)

If meeting six out of the twelve criteria isn't enough, then what should I do?

Sutatatabunwa (talk) 04:39, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sutatatabunwa As noted by reviewers, the sources that you provided are of poor quality or are not independent reliable sources. Even if the band technically meets the notability criteria, it still must receive significant coverage in independent reliable sources. 331dot (talk) 08:46, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
331dot But The Japan Times is a national newspaper; Sound & Recording Magazine Guitar Magazine and Bass Magazine are both nationally available magazines; and Shoegazer Disc Guide is a nationally available secondary source (musical reference book), all of which are neither self-published nor self-penned by or affiliated with the band. You are asking for "published" "reliable" "secondary" sources that are "independent" from the subject and I am providing them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sutatatabunwa (talkcontribs) 11:16, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

09:33:36, 1 October 2021 review of draft by Emfletch91


I have recently had my first article declined due to lack of referencing - I have since made improvements on this however I have two sources that I am unsure on how to reference. The articles in question are old newspaper articles and cannot be located online, yet contain information that I have referenced. Please can you advise how I would go about referencing these? Would I scan them on and use them as an image on the article? Thank you

Emfletch91 (talk) 09:33, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Emfletch91: You are allowed to cite offline sources - see Wikipedia:Offline sources. Make sure to include at least newspaper name, release date (for periodically released newspapers), (page number,) article title and ideally article author. See {{cite news}} for a template that can assist with creating a newspaper citation. Please do not scan and upload them to Wikipedia, as this can, depending on the aage of the newspaper, be a copyright violation. Just include all information required to find the article you cite in a library. Victor Schmidt (talk) 09:59, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Emfletch91: I am concerned about some of the images, particularely File:Leigh Spinners Dance.jpg. You state that you are not the copyright holder (and probbably correctly so).

Pathum M Ranasinghe I hope that you have a successful career, but you cannot use Wikipedia as a way to aid your career or enhance search results for you. Once you are shown with significant coverage in independent reliable sources, showing how you meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable musician, someone will eventually take note of your career and choose to write about you. Don't try to force the issue and go out and work on your career. Be advised that a Wikipedia article is not necessarily desirable.

02:41:39, 2 October 2021 review of draft by NruasPaoYPP


Hello,

Would you like to help me please? My question is about my draft "Ban Phou pheung noi". It has been denied twice. The problem is because there were some YouTube video references cited there and they needed to fix the time and date of the videos. There was another thing too, and it was about the topic of my article. Is it the mountain "Phou pheung" or the village of "ban Phou pheung noi"?

Actually, the two issues are fixed. All YouTube videos have been removed from my article. An the topic of article is about the village "Ban Phou pheung noi", it's not the mountain which is "Phou pheung".

Would you like to help me and check the paragraphs of my article if they make sense to readers? Do you see any video references cited there need to remove from my article? What should I need to change or remove?

Thank you.

Since the Neptune Festival is the largest festival in the Commonwealth of Virginia by number of attendees and money generated, and because of Nied's activism in climate change and success in organizing the planting of 7,000 trees around the world, Nied's activism warrants a biography on Wikipedia.

I made the article of Skye Folf to help him grow and be able to be recognized like how other people are in the Wikipedia site. If you guys can please accept this I'd appreciate this so much and it help me out so much as a creator to keep making articles.

ArcherSkulldog The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. It is almost completely unsourced. All articles, especially those about living people, must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about (in this case) a person, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person or notable musician. Wikipedia is not a means to recognize someone or "help them grow", they must have already become notable to merit an article. This is just one of many people who post music online, which is possible for any of us to do. 331dot (talk) 07:04, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi This article was created for Vinod Mishra who is a notable figure from Mumbai, he is elected representative and corporator. We have also added relevant references of published in News. Please reconsider this article. 1.22.228.185 (talk) 08:31, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please refer to the top table here. I will be skipping over the sources I am clearly going to be unable to assess due to the language barrier.
Based on the English-language sources, notability has not been met even if the non-English sources are acceptable. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 16:35, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I feel that the singer CHINCHILLA is notable enough for a Wikipedia article, but I do not have enough experience to create a good article. I would like some help understanding how to write a suitable article. Chlopim (talk) 08:44, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Chlopim Writing an article is the hardest task to perform on Wikipedia; you increase your chances of success and reduce the chances of frustration and hurt feelings by first gaining experience by editing existing articles in areas that interest you, and also using the new user tutorial.
In terms of the draft, interviews are not acceptable as a source to establish notability. An article about a musician must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about them, showing how they meet Wikipedia's special definition of a notable musician. Please see Your first article. 331dot (talk) 10:50, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

10:37:17, 3 October 2021 review of submission by DK-cchcrp

Hi! I really do not understand why the article (Draft:Transregionalism) has been rejected. Transregionalism as a term is very often used among researches of new regionalism and international relations. A lot of new international initiatives (like Belt and Road, Quad (Quadrilateral Security Dialogue), TPP or Indo-Pacific, are letated as TRANSREGIONAL. So it is not a neologism as pointed by the reviewer. but for University's students it would be great to have such a page with a brief and easy theoretical explanation of the phenomenon. Please consider it one more time. Thank you!

DK-cchcrp (talk) 10:37, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DK-cchcrp You may resubmit it, but any article about this term must show with significant coverage in independent reliable sources that it is in widespread use, as you were told by the reviewer. Note that the whole URL is not needed for a link. 331dot (talk) 10:46, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

14:54:59, 3 October 2021 review of submission by 88.10.153.144

What does a well-known person need to be sufficiently notable in Wikipedia? Because in this case, Iker Unzu has over 8 million followers on the internet, yet he is not considered notable. He has also got a Google Knowledge Graph, which basically proofs his notability, with many other articles/news. It would mean a lot if you could answer these questions and thanks for reviewing the article! 88.10.153.144 (talk) 14:54, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Followers can be bought, and having a Knowledge Graph doesn't prove anything about his notability as Wikipedia defines it. We don't cite YouTube or Google. Refer to the top table here:
Thus, notability has not been shown. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 16:18, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

18:28:09, 3 October 2021 review of draft by RankingPedia


Of the reference sources that the article contains, I would like to know which ones are reliable and which ones are not. By then continue to improve the article

RankingPedia (talk) 18:28, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello RankingPedia, none of the references used are considered reliable or useful towards showing notability. We don't care what the organization say about themselves or what they post. We only care what others say about it in independent published reliable sources. Reliable sources need oversight and fact checking, if they do not have this then they are not usable. This eliminates any sort of social media and user generated content. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 19:21, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello :)

Draft:The_Lottery_Office

I sadly have received a decline on a draft which I am trying to publish. The sources for referencing are independent and reliable, there is also a reference on every statement made in the article. There are many references. I really don't know what to do here, can you recommend anything? Are there any references I should remove? If you guys don't want this article published, that's totally fine. I proposed the article as it would be a good addition to Wikipedia, because this lottery has been very mainstream for a few years now in Australia and Wikipedia is outdated.

The comment the reviewer left was: Needs to summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about this organization itself, not just tell what they do.

05:54:29, 4 October 2021 review of submission by 117.193.136.129

I do not know why every reviewer of this draft gave the comment that it is not notable as it is not really possible to give only show reviews as a reliable reference because not every Indian newspaper gives only reviews about the tv shows in their articles. It will always have to do with launch dates, actors and other short descriptions about the show. Why are the reviewers so adamant about the draft to be having only reviews to show notability that and they don't give the article any chance? Does that mean this show Draft:Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana does not even deserve an article in Wikipedia? This show has been on-air for the past two months and has satisfied both WP:TVSHOW and WP:GNG but the reviewers gave some or the other reasons and kept declining the submissions. There is also a additional claim that the people are paid and are promoting the show. I really don't know about the others but I'm neither paid nor do I want to promote the show but I am a fan of the show. Can please do something about Draft:Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana. I can understand the issues of disruptive editing but for that can't the article be protected once it is published? Or can you atleast reduce the page protection required for it's creation given to atleast the extended confirmed users than the administrators? Because no administrator is interested in contributing to the creation of this page. I humbly request please help with Draft:Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana. Thank you--117.193.136.129 (talk) 05:56, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The draft was rejected, and as such will not be considered any more. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a subject. This does not include routine announcements such as casting decisions or announcements of production. Please read other stuff exists. 331dot (talk) 08:28, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
331dot I totally get your point about other stuff exists but believe me this show has much more reliable sources than those given in it's draft Draft:Zindagi Mere Ghar Aana. To be frank, I really don't get why Wikipedia does not want this article to be included. This show does have everything required for any Wikipedia article of it's own. Please I request again, please give a chance. Atleast make the protection of creating the page to extended confirmed users because I'm sure the extended will surely create the article respecting all guidelines of Wikipedia, there are some really good extended confirmed users of WP:TVSHOW articles like Shinnosuke15 and Mann Rocks whose editing track records you can check. Otherwise, atleast suggest some admin who can help with creating the article. Anybody from India and once they create it then please give the article ultra-level protection such that nobody will cause any mess in that article but for that you have to give one chance please--117.193.136.129 (talk) 09:56, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

06:02:04, 4 October 2021 review of submission by Weatherforyou

I have added 8 refernces to the article already. 3 of the references(story published by newspapers) have their own wikipedia pages. All the 8 refernces directly target the person or refer to the person(actually all 8 have published a story of the subject in their newspapers, separately from 2 years, as you can check the date of the articles, among which 3 newspapers have their own wikipedia pages in which the subject's story was published. The last time I included around 15 news media portals/newspapers (in URL form) that have taken forecasts from the subject, one of the reviewers told me there is no need to mention it as the subject is enough notable and would obviously be in the newspaper. So, I removed the list. Should I add all of them again? or you would allow publishing of the wikipedia page. Please take a look into this. Thanking you in anticipation. Weatherforyou (talk) 06:02, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weatherforyou Wikipedia has articles, not mere "pages". This is a subtle but important distinction. The draft article was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. The sources you offer seem to mostly be interviews with him; this does not establish notability as interviews are a primary source. A Wikipedia article summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own, not based on any materials from the subject or brief mentions, to say about a topic. 331dot (talk) 08:32, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
