00:37, 29 December 2023 review of submission by Alias Chosin

Hi I would like assistance with my submission that keeps getting denied. I'm unsure what I'm doing that does not allow it to qualify for publishing. Alias Chosin (talk) 00:37, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Alias Chosin: I would say that Sungodtemple's review comment remains highly pertinent; and I quote: "Are you talking about Eric Holder, or the murder of Nipsey Hussle? Either way, you have to prove that the submission is notable enough to be separate from Nipsey Hussle - for example, by showing evidence that the case has influenced laws".
You should also review WP:BLP1E. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:44, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

09:48, 29 December 2023 review of submission by Nirmal Madhavan

The draft Wikipedia page for Geoffrey Brooks has been declined due to a few key issues: 

  1) Insufficient Inline Citations: The draft lacks the minimum standard for inline citations as required by Wikipedia. You need to cite sources using footnotes. Wikipedia's guide on referencing for beginners could be helpful here.

   2) Non-Encyclopedic Tone: The submission's tone does not meet the formal and neutral style expected in encyclopedia entries. It should be revised to reflect a neutral point of view and avoid promotional language or "peacock terms."

   3) Connection to Subject: There is a suggestion that a major contributor to the article may have a close connection to the subject, which could affect neutrality. It's important to ensure the content complies with Wikipedia's policies on neutrality.

   4) General Improvement Tips: The rejection notice also includes links to resources for improving Wikipedia drafts, such as guides on editing, referencing, article development, and finding sources.

Hence need assistance to revise the draft please Nirmal Madhavan (talk) 09:48, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

09:50, 29 December 2023 review of submission by 46.211.88.235

can you please be more specific about what is wrong with the draft as I don't see any decline-mentioned issues. 46.211.88.235 (talk) 09:50, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A lot of the content is unsupported by referencing, and at least some of the sources cited are not reliable.
The REFBOMBING makes it difficult to analyse the sources quickly, but it looks like many of them are primary, and thus unable to establish notability per WP:GNG / WP:NORG. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:53, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't post the same query more than once. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:58, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
there's only one ref is primary source - the law. all other are mostly news, which are secondary. so, still don't see the described issue.
sorry for double - page just stuck and was reloaded. 46.211.88.235 (talk) 10:00, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There are several .gov.ua sources, those are usually primary.
But let's turn this around: can you highlight the 3-5 strongest sources in terms of being secondary (and please do click on that link to check you properly understand what this means), independent and reliable, and providing significant coverage (ditto) of the subject. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:07, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 / 10 (that one last not sure as meets your reqs). that's only secondaey sorces avoiding gov.ua domain, despite there's also secondary ones exists (local/global administrations/governmental news). Will it help if I'll i.e. exchange some (most) secondary gov.ua sources to not gov.ua ones with the same content? 46.211.88.89 (talk) 10:52, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If the same content exists at a primary and secondary source, then it depends on which is the original. If a primary source says something, which gets repeated by a secondary one, that still makes the source ultimately primary. Conversely, if a secondary source says something, which a primary source repeats, that makes it secondary. If you're aware of both, and know which is the original source, you should always cite that. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:05, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
got it. I'll check refs for it. 46.211.234.71 (talk) 14:32, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Of those nine sources, most don't provide significant coverage of the subject (and one doesn't even work, returning 404) and/or aren't reliable and independent. There might be one or two that are okay, but I wouldn't categorically be able to say that the decline decision was wrong. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:16, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
404? probably imispelled something. probably i don't really understand what does mean 'to provide significant coverage' by source. can you please lead exactly whrre to read about that? do you mean I have to find some truly secondary source that describe the article subject in detail for it to be enough to maake the article worth to be published? 46.211.234.71 (talk) 14:31, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
found WP:SIGCOV. please comment other questions. thanks. 46.211.234.71 (talk) 14:36, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
is that some kind of article subject significant coverage (for now missing at the article): 11? 46.211.234.71 (talk) 14:42, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

11:23, 29 December 2023 review of submission by Caroline Carlson

This article has multiple sources from News and Some press releases from the government of India and other government websites.

I am still wondering why this got rejected. Caroline Carlson (talk) 11:23, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Caroline Carlson what is your connection to this company? Let's go through the sources one by one:
  1. a primary source - does not confer notability.
  2. a company listing - does not confer notability.
  3. no mention of Hirehike.
  4. no mention of Hirehike.
  5. no mention of Hirehike.
  6. this source does not load for me.
  7. a trivial mention of Hirehike.
As such I am declining again. Qcne (talk) 11:29, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It reads like an advert. All the sources are press releases issued by India's leading PR agency, PTI. – DreamRimmer (talk) 11:32, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16:27, 29 December 2023 review of submission by Robert Neustadter

Thank you for your feedback and the "C" rating. However, I have a few questions:

a). When I do a Google search on Britannia Village, Ottawa, the article does not come up?

b). Can I now add a fair use photo to the article?

c). Where can I find comments from the reviewers?

Thank you

Robert Neustadter Robert Neustadter (talk) 16:27, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Robert Neustadter:
a) Newly published articles get indexed by Google when they've been reviewed by NPP, or when 90 days has passed since publication, whichever comes sooner. This article was autopatrolled upon acceptance, so should appear shortly, if it hasn't already.
b) Yes, AFAIK.
c) The AfC comments are removed automatically when the draft is accepted, but you can still find them in the edit history.

17:10, 29 December 2023 review of submission by 142.181.229.69

I am the official creator of the Wikipedia page "Ida of Upper Lorraine", which was drafted, and sent for review, and rejected. I am confused, because I spent many hours on it, trying to find sources, and I thought I had done the article I wanted. Why was it rejected?

It would be very nice if you, or another kind person, could tell me what is wrong with my official article. I have seen articles similar to mine. I do accept that there may be a missing area of article that I missed about her, and I do accept that it might not reach the standards, but I would like to try and publish this article.

Thank you for your time. 

142.181.229.69 (talk) 17:10, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi IP editor.
- the article was declined, not rejected. Declined means if you address the issues you can re-submit.
- the article is not your article, see WP:OWN.
- the reason for the declining is in the grey box: in summary you have not proven Ida is notable enough to merit a Wikipedia article (using our special definition of notability which can be found at WP:NPEOPLE). You have three sources, but they're all the same source. It seems like the source is reliable, but we'd need more than a single source to prove notability.
Hope that helps, Qcne (talk) 17:25, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

01:44, 30 December 2023 review of submission by M066690

Sir/Ma'am,

BLUF: I am trying to contribute to the knowledge of society concerning an official US Government Organization operating in Japan. The mission of MSC Japan is important and having a Wikipedia page is important for the public record. I respectfully request to know a more in depth reason why this article was denied publishing. I'd prefer not to keep the public in the dark about this organization and request "reference" assistance to make corrections in order to move forward. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Denial reasons are below, however, references given were official government websites (reliable), US Military Public Affairs websites and Stars & Stripes, an official Military News reporting organization (in depth). These articles include an impartial description of the Command and its mission, and are not part of the Command in question (i.e. secondary). If you google "MSC SSU Japan" or "MSC Japan" you will see all several related articles. But as with many government Organizations, the government does not provide many official websites with additional information due to cost savings.

Article was denied publishing due to the following: This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are: 

   in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
   reliable
   secondary
   independent of the subject

I've used Wikipedia for the last 20 years, and I've never had such an issue with contributing knowledge. Please assist me with making whatever necessary corrections to successfully get this article published. I have a copy of the official Command Brief (unclassified), however I don't believe this will assist as were only trying to site items already on the internet and not contribute new information.

Thanks & Very Respectfully, m066690 M066690 (talk) 01:44, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@M066690: the decline reasons contain sufficient information about what needs to be addressed. Please read them and make the necessary improvements accordingly. – DreamRimmer (talk) 05:21, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The point is, M066690, that Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. Your references are all to official sources, which are not independent of the operation. You need to find books, newspapers, or learned journals, which discuss the operation, and base your article on those. ColinFine (talk) 13:29, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
M066690, we already have a fairly detailed article Military Sealift Command. I do not see the need for a separate article about this organization's activities in just Japan. Cullen328 (talk) 22:36, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Cullen328. I respect your opinion, but isn't Wikipedia's goal to be a comprehensive collection of all of the knowledge in the world? Isn't it to be a widely accessible and free encyclopedia comprehensive of information on all branches of knowledge? Why hinder that effort? What is achieved?
Military Sealift Command (and that article) is about just the headquarters for separate Command's located throughout the world which all have separate mission sets. Military Sealift Command Japan is an entirely separate Command which is responsible for operations throughout an entire Country and a Fleet of over 50+ US Military vessels. MSC Japan has been in operation since the end of WWII and was a huge component of supporting military operations during the Korean War, Vietnam War, and War on Terror.
I'll take your suggestion as a request for more historical information and I'm open to additional suggestions to improve this article. Thank you & V/r M066690 (talk) 02:27, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think a better use of this knowledge would be at most a section in the article Cullen linked. blueskiesdry… (cloudy contribs…) 02:28, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your opinion, but once the article is complete, it would be too long to add as a section. You're really helping me see what I need to do to complete the article, thank you. M066690 (talk) 02:32, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

02:34, 30 December 2023 review of submission by Therefortheroom

To edit and approve the submission Therefortheroom (talk) 02:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Therefortheroom: your submission was declined, and the reason for this decline is that it does not meet notability criteria and doesn't cite any sources. Please note that the content of every article, especially BLPs, must be backed up by reliable sources. Now, you need to establish its notability by adding reliable sources that provide significant coverage of this subject. I noticed you included external links in the body of the article; you might want to add them as references. For guidance on proper citation, you can refer to WP:CITE. – DreamRimmer (talk) 03:39, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you pointing out about the external links. I misread that by adding them that they were also added as references. I’ll go back to the drawing board when I have more time and make the corrections. Again, very helpful. Thank you. M066690 (talk) 08:56, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am unable to write and submit. Is there any wiki writer who can help me publish. I have all the supporting citations. Rimithapa (talk) 02:50, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We appreciate your effort, but unfortunately, your submission was declined. The reviewer mentioned that it seems to have been generated by an LLM and resembles a CV. It requires some manual improvement. Remember, LLM content shouldn't be directly added to Wikipedia; you can use it for grammar checks, etc. Take a moment to review the decline reasons provided by the reviewer in the grey box within the template and in the comment section. Make the necessary improvements, and then click on the resubmit button at the end of the template to give it another shot for review. – DreamRimmer (talk) 03:17, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16:59, 30 December 2023 review of submission by Jackeyed One

I was given the following editorial advice to: "External links should also be removed or converted to inline citations where appropriate. Greenman (talk) 16:03, 23 December 2023"

I substituted several of the references that were external links to citation links in relevant passages. The external links are visible in read mode but when I go to editi mode the eternal links are not visible. Please advise. Jackeyed One (talk) 16:59, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Jackeyed One, your draft violates the Neutral point of view, which is a core content policy. You have written a hagiography, not a neutral encyclopedia article. You need to remove all the excessive praise in Wikipedia's voice. It is not appropriate. Cullen328 (talk) 22:08, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Jackeyed One, you seem to be confusing references with external links. Read Referencing for beginners, and format your references to display bibliographic information rather than bare URLs. Take a look at Wikipedia:Good articles/Media and drama, in particular the section at the very end: "Theatre, musical theatre, dance, and opera". Take a close look at a few articles there to see the correct way to write neutrally, and to structure references and external links. Cullen328 (talk) 22:20, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

18:36, 30 December 2023 review of submission by Vesper.and.Twilight

Hello -- I am trying to rename (move) the page title "Mark Steven Morton" to "Mark Morton" since that latter name is the one this author uses on his published works. However, when I try to do so, I receive the following message: "You have not specified a target page or user on which to perform this function." Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 

Vesper.and.Twilight (talk) 18:36, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Vesper.and.Twilight: that article was published two months ago, whereas this help desk is for drafts undergoing the AfC review process.
In any case, you cannot move this to 'Mark Morton', since a disambiguation page already exists at that title Mark Morton. You could perhaps move it to something like 'Mark Morton (author)', but I would actually suggest leaving it where it is, as that seems as good a way of disambiguating as anything. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:00, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, DoubleGrazing -- What you suggest (leaving it as is) sounds like the best option. I appreciate your guidance. Best wishes, Vesper Vesper.and.Twilight (talk) 00:32, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've revised a draft of an entry for the artist Gregory Masurovsky a few times. The last time I asked the teahouse if the sources were sufficient, which had been an issue with some reviewers. I got a general response about sourcing, which I think I have a handle on. My question is about whether these specific sources are sufficient for the article. I asked the last reviewer but didn't hear back. In the last couple of days I've received a notice that the draft has been archived. Not sure what that means. In any case, my question remains: are these specific sources sufficient? Where can I go from here? Thanks Owleyesinthelibrary (talk) 00:24, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Owleyesinthelibrary: the first, strategic decision you need to make is whether you're aiming to show notability by the general WP:GNG route, or by the special WP:ARTIST one, as this has a bearing on the sources required. A quick scan of the sources cited suggests the latter to be more likely. My advice therefore is that you study carefully (if you haven't already) the four criteria in the latter, and consider whether you can clearly and demonstrably (as in, backed up by evidence) show that this person meets one or more of them. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:58, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I think he meets the notability standard based on the artist criteria, section 4, works in public collections. (That's in line with your advice.) I added five more citations. There are now 10. I would guess that's sufficient. He also won a couple of awards at a major art show, which I would think constitute critical recognition, another criteria for artistic notability.
I also added some citations in the draft in places which a previous reviewer said they were needed.
What's the next step? Thanks for you help in this. Owleyesinthelibrary (talk) 21:44, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
PS: You probably received a message saying some of your comments/questions on a talk page somewhere have been archived. The draft is still there; in fact, there is no way of 'archiving' drafts. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:59, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I would like to understand why my article is not being published. All of the references I've used are reliable, published books in the Philippines on this topic.

Hi. I would like to understand why my article is not being published. All of the references I've used are reliable, published books in the Philippines on this topic. I have written four other articles accepted by Wikipedia with similar sources. Rosepolicarpio (talk) 06:45, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Rosepolicarpio: it may well be that all the sources you've cited are reliable, but they're offline sources cited in a way that makes it difficult or even impossible for anyone to verify them, as they don't provide full bibliographical information of the publications. See WP:OFFLINE for advice on citing such sources.
The other problem with this is that quite a lot of the content is unreferenced with entire paragraphs and even sections without a single citation. This inevitably causes the reader to wonder "how do we know that's true" or "where did this information come from", and the reader should never have to ask such questions. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:45, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Rosinant357: this draft has a few different issues, but it was declined for lack of evidence of notability. You need to show that the subject is notable either by the general WP:GNG notability guideline, which needs much stronger sources than you're currently citing; or by the special WP:MUSICBIO one, which requires substantial career achievements (and evidence thereof). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:06, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The book sources you provided are primary. One's own books should not be added as references to back up statements. Writing books and distributing them to book-selling platforms doesn't establish notability. You need to add reliable secondary sources that offer significant coverage of the subject and are independent of the subject. – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:16, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:00, 31 December 2023 review of submission by Drjsilverstein

The labeling of my work as pseudoscience is rather disturbing and indicates a lack of comprehension and the use of a defamatory term. It was reviewed within minutes of being submitted and thus suggests superficial editorial oversight.

Sincerely, Dr Jay Silverstein Drjsilverstein (talk) 17:00, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Drjsilverstein, this draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further. For your information, once you submit a draft for review, it is up to the reviewers to evaluate it.

19:28, 31 December 2023 review of submission by Mgalligan

I really would appreciate some help with my article. I want my draft to be accepted because I know that Nanny Assis is a noteworthy person, performing and working with many high-profile musicians in New York, touring internationally, and receiving many awards in Brazil and beyond. I'm not well-versed in how to find good sources that will comply, and how to show notability, because I'm not a professional, is there any way to get some help from other contributors on this article? I'd really, really appreciate any insight that you can provide. Mgalligan (talk) 19:28, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mgalligan, none of us are professionals. We are all volunteers. If you believe that this person is notable, then you are obligated to find signigicant coverage of this musician in published, reliable sources that are entirely independent of the person. At first glance, the All About Jazz source appears to be the best, but a closer look reveals that it was written by a Terri Hinte, a professional publicist, and is therefore not independent and is of no value in establishing notability. I have done a basic Google search and all I can find are passing mentions, calendar listing, press releases and the like, none of which contribute to notability. Cullen328 (talk) 19:47, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Mgalligan part of the issue is all the name dropping. Notability is not inherited (read that) so him working with other notable musicians has no bearing on him meeting the English Wikipedia's notability criteria, not to mention much it is unsourced. The other issue is most of the sources are poor with many being primary sources. What is needed are secondary sources, such as reputable news or music media, that have written in-depth about him and/or his work. If he won an award, secondary sources are needed to support the importance of the award. Please also read the notability guidelines for musicians. S0091 (talk) 19:49, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there, the sources you provided are from music platforms that might not establish the subject's notability. At the moment, I'm uncertain if the subject meets the criteria for inclusion, especially considering I couldn't find any additional sources on Google.

08:13, 1 January 2024 review of submission by Technobabylon

Hello - Why does this draft keep getting declined? I have already ensured a good number of articles which are third party with decent coverage having been included. You keep repeating the same generic comment every time and this is not helpful at all. Please clarify which articles are not suitable for this article and I will amend accordingly. Thank you Technobabylon (talk) 08:13, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Technobabylon: the reason why this keeps getting declined for the same reason is that the said reason has not been addressed. You need to read and understand the decline notice, the grey box inside the large pink box. Click on each of the links, which point to various policies and guidelines. They will tell you what is missing. TL;DNR = there is no evidence whatsoever that this person is notable by Wikipedia standards. The referencing consists of two 'profiles' and four things he has written, none of which contributes towards notability in the slightest. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:18, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I read the guidelines a number of times already, so no need to keep repeating the same thing over and over again please. I have referenced a number of reputable third party sources and it is unclear what level of famousness is considered as "notable". The reason some of his works are listed is because that particular section is called "Writings and Publications". Of course, if Wikipedia doesn't allow to reference any works done by the subject, I can delete this entire section altogether, but it will make the article less useful to the public. Apart from this and the book written by the subject, all the other sources are third party (External Links section). Technobabylon (talk) 04:07, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Technobabylon: you'll note I said read and understand...
Yes, you are allowed to list articles written by this person, but they don't contribute towards notability; neither do author/speaker profiles and the like. Once more: we need to see significant coverage of the subject by independent sources.
As for the items in the 'External links' (which shouldn't even be there, strictly speaking) and any other appendices like that, if you're relying on them to establish notability, you need to base your draft contents on them, and cite them as sources. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:11, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note that Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. All or almost all of the references need to be of that sort. ColinFine (talk) 14:49, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Almost all of the references come from third party sources not related to the subject. Hence I don't understand where your comment is coming from. Please read the draft. Technobabylon (talk) 03:54, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft lacked the information required to submit it(which is provided when you use the Article Wizard) but adding that information would just be academic as your draft was clear promotion.

I'm wondering whether this article is successfully in the queue to be reviewed because it doesn't seem to show in the 'Category:Pending AfC submissions' list, and also it continues to have a message about it being declined even though I subsequently then re-submitted it to address the issue (basically because I'd mistakenly created a duplicate page which I then deleted).

15:45, 1 January 2024 review of submission by Lbhallonquist

Hello,

I am trying to understand my mistake here. From what I see from other Business school pages, there doesn't seem to be much of a difference. Can you please provide a few examples that indicate that this articles reads as an advertisement?

Below are some of the other Business pages I referenced: Wharton School Ross School of Business Foster School of Business Lbhallonquist (talk) 15:45, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Lbhallonquist, emphasis mine:
- it has evolved into a premier institution, offering comprehensive business education and fostering innovation in the field of business
- played a pivotal role in the
- has consistently earned recognition for its academic excellence, faculty contributions, and impactful research
- crucial component of the Culverhouse College of Business, is recognized for its exceptional graduate programs and commitment to producing business leaders
- particularly recognized for its commitment to producing business leaders through rigorous and innovative graduate education
etcetera.
These are all the sorts of phrases that one would find in a student marketing brochure, and I should know as I used to write them. This is not appropriate for Wikipedia, which should be purely summarising or paraphrasing sources in a dry, formal, neutral way.
The existing articles you linked do have some problems themselves, but have far less promotional language than this draft.
By any chance do you work for the school, @Lbhallonquist? This type of speak is common amongst Marketers and leads me to believe you may work in the Marketing Department? If so, you must immediately declare this by following the instructions at both WP:PAID and WP:COI. Failure to do so is a breach of Wikimedia Terms and Conditions. Let me know, Qcne (talk) 16:02, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Qcne,
Thanks for the feedback. I have remove most of your suggestions. However, I did leave comprehensive business education. Culverhouse provides bachelors, masters, and doctorates, which makes it comprehensive. Not all schools of business do this. For example Harvard and Stanford do not offer bachelors for business. However, I did rewrite some of the content in the paragraph to reflect the meaning. Hopefully, this helps clarify and is sufficient.
Additionally, I think the content may sound like marketing speak because I do work in marketing, just not for the school of anything related. I actually work in automotive.
Please let me know if I am good to resubmit. Lbhallonquist (talk) 18:45, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Lbhallonquist Can you let me know first if you have any conflict of interest with this school? Qcne (talk) 19:06, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Qcne I have no conflict of interest with the school. I do not work there, nor am I being paid to create this content. Additionally, another moderator added some comments so I took their suggestions as well. Lbhallonquist (talk) 19:23, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for letting me know.
I think it's going to be difficult for you to write this with a marketing background, its very easy to slip into marketing speak. You must understand that the Wikipedia voice must never be used to promote a subject, make assertations, or try and sway opinion. Pretend you are writing an autopsy report.
The draft is written better now, but some of the language could still be tightened up. You also need sources for the Alumni section. I think it is likely passes our notability criteria so hopefully if you can get that done it can be approved. Qcne (talk) 19:29, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is still marketing speak. Oy vey. I will look again and will add some sources to the alumi section. I figured linking to their wikipedia pages would suffice. Thanks for your patience on this. Lbhallonquist (talk) 19:45, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I updated with abundant references. Lots of volunteer organizations like ours are represented on Wikipedia. I reformatted. I’ve been a modest contributor for a number of years. Hoffda (talk) 21:27, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As noted by reviewers, your formatting makes the draft unreadable. Please review some other articles to learn more about style and structure, as well as Referencing for beginners.
If you are editing about your organization, please read about conflict of interest. 331dot (talk) 21:40, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hoffda, I agree with 331dot that non-standard formatting of your draft makes it exceptionally difficult for a reviewer to analyze. WP:CHEASTSHEET lists the basic formatting wikicode that can be used in the source editor to create section headers, for example. You do not need to try to write a non-standard table of contents or reference list. When your draft is properly formatted, the MediaWiki software creates the table of contents and the reference list automatically, and corrects them automatically when the article or draft is modified. Cullen328 (talk) 00:56, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Hoffda. Not one organisation (or person) is "represented" on Wikipedia in the way you suggest, because Wikipedia is not about "representing" anybody or anything: it is about summarising what independent reliable sources have published about something, nothing more. Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources.
It is unfortunately quite possible that some of those articles you are referring to have been improperly created or edited, and should be corrected to return them to a neutral point of view, or should be deleted. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. ColinFine (talk) 21:18, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

00:19, 2 January 2024 review of submission by Twelve31

This submission was denied on the basis of the subject doesn't show "Significant coverage". The subject's work is already well noted on multiple wiki pages that have already been approved and are active which is why the work is linked internally within wiki. You can look at those artists discographies and see the subject as credited as a writer of the work. What other external sources are needed here to verify "significant coverage"? Twelve31 (talk) 00:19, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Twelve31, writing a hit song or even several hit songs does not make a person notable. Being mentioned on other Wikipedia pages does not make a person notable. Far from it. What is required is significant coverage of the person in reliable, published sources that are entirely independent of the person. An example might be a detailed article about the person's life and career in a respected music industry publication like Rolling Stone (there are others). Cullen328 (talk) 00:44, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AliM7mdd, your draft incorrectly uses external links instead of references. Please read Referencing for beginners and convert those that are reliable sources to references. Get rid of the rest.

Cullen328 (talk) 06:58, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, AliM7mdd. Like most new editors who try the challenging task of creating a new article before they have learnt how Wikipedia works, you have written your draft BACKWARDS. First, find independent, reliable, sources, which discuss your uncle at some length. If you can't find any, then you will know that he does not currently meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability, and you should give up. If you find some then second, forget everything you know about him, and write an article which is a summary of what those independent sources say. --ColinFine (talk) 21:23, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

10:38, 2 January 2024 review of submission by 31ch153

Hi, I have been editing an article about a German artist Helga Franz since December 2023, which was declined several times. Therefore, as you are suggesting, I cut most parts of the article and left only 2 lines, which are supported by 2 secondary sources.

One source is a website of a community college of Berlin which is run by a public organazation, i.e. Berlin city itself. The other souce is published by "Landesverband Bildende Kunst Sachsen" which is an artist union in Sachsen-province. I am sure these 2 sources can be classified as reliable. They mention either "Helga Franz" herself or her work as the main topic.

Can you let me know whether the modified article would meet the criteria for publication or not? If this modification would not be sufficient, I will stop editing the article until I find further reliable secondary sources. But if you could suggest another solution, I would be very thankful for your kind support. 31ch153 (talk) 10:38, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think that you have gone too far in the other direction. An article needs to summarize independent reliable sources with significant coverage of the subject. You have two sources, and the article does little more than state that the person exists and that they have a piece of artwork in a public space. You have not summarized sources that discuss how this artist meets the definition of a notable creative professional. 331dot (talk) 10:44, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The draft does not describe how the company meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company according to what independent reliable sources say about the company; it just summarizes the activities of the company and its offerings. That the CEO was named as an influencer isn't relevant to the company itself, and doesn't add to notability of the CEO personally for that matter(as only awards that themselves merit articles contribute to notability, like Academy Award). 331dot (talk) 11:37, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, thank you for the clarification! In my point of view, as a Finnish person, I think that Solita is a notable company as it is one of the few Finnish tech companies that has been able to grow its business and become international. It also played a huge part in the corona virus pandemic in Finland as it helped to develop a app to prevent the spread of the virus. So, if I add this info to the text, could it be published?
Thank you! 185.185.168.136 (talk) 12:18, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you have independent reliable sources that discuss these things on their own(not an interview with someone from the company, not a press release) that may help, though I can't make a guarantee.
Note that the Finnish Wikipedia probably has different rules than this Wikipedia, and what is not acceptable here may be acceptable there. 331dot (talk) 12:44, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alenjohnj Your draft was only declined, not rejected. "Rejected" has a specific meaning in the submission process, that a draft may not be resubmitted. "Declined" means that it may be resubmitted. What specific help are you seeking? 331dot (talk) 11:56, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I can tell you just looking at the first line, "was a person who gifted invaluable treasures to the Kerala Malabar Syrian Church with his Syriac scholarship and keen interest in service" is highly promotional. Articles need to be written very dry and should not talk up the subject. If he was a church official, it should just say "Malpan Andrew Kapalura was a church official who (what he did)". If independent sources describe him as gifted, that can be discussed later in the article in that context("X source says that he was gifted for the reason....."). 331dot (talk) 11:59, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lisapaulinet I fixed your link, it lacked the "Draft:" portion. We don't have "company profiles" here, not a single one. We have articles about companies that meet our special Wikipedia definition of a notable company, as shown with significant coverage in independent reliable sources that can be summarized in an article. Your draft just summarizes the activities and offerings of the company, it doesn't summarize what independent sources say is important/significant/influential about the company.

MickelClark I fixed your link, it lacked the "Draft:" portion. Please see other stuff exists; the existence of other article that themselves may be inappropriate cannot justify the addition of more inappropriate articles. I suggest you hold off on submitting the draft until you have more information to place on it. It hasn't even aired yet; to merit an article about it before it even airs, there must be substantial significant coverage in independent reliable sources to summarize.
You don't need the whole url when linking to another Wikipedia article or page, simply place the title of the target in double brackets, as I've done here. 331dot (talk) 13:18, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think that you misunderstand what Wikipedia is for. Wikipedia is not a place for people to tell about themselves and what they do like social media is. Wikipedia articles summarize what independent reliable sources state about a topic, and are typically written by independent editors wholly unconnected with the subject. My suggestion is that you go on about your music career and forget about Wikipedia, and when independent editors take note of coverage of you, they will write about you. 331dot (talk) 14:12, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This article is definitely notable. But it keeps getting rejected even though it has a lot of information and has >30 sources. Shmego (talk) 15:17, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Shmego: this draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further. And given its edit history, I would advise you to drop it and find something else to write about.
If you do wish to keep beating a dead horse, however, your only option is to appeal directly to the rejecting reviewer. You will need a reasonably strong case, however; just saying "this is definitely notable" when multiple reviewers have concluded otherwise is not a very persuasive argument. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:31, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the rejector. The governing determination of notability is not number of sources. It is determined by the criteria at Wikipedia:Notability_(weather)#Tropical_cyclones.

Carrolleditor (talk) 16:59, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Carrolleditor: this draft is highly promotional in tone and content, as well as being almost completely unreferenced; pretty much a definition of promotional writing – see WP:YESPROMO. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:05, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
PS: You shouldn't "share [your] knowledge"; that's not how Wikipedia works. You should summarise what independent and reliable secondary sources have said about the subject. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:06, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay... None of what I said in the article is incorrect. I shared the written history and different neighborhoods within the district. This is my first article I don't understand what about this looks like an advertisement. A page for the City already exists with references to the district and the page doesn't exist. Carrolleditor (talk) 17:10, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Carrolleditor: whether what you said is correct isn't the point. As I said already, we only want to know what secondary sources such as newspaper/magazine articles, books, TV/radio programmes, and the like have said about the subject. This is important for reasons of notability and verifiability, both core requirements for inclusion in Wikipedia.
Expressions like "serene and picturesque view", "luxurious and diverse housing", "a place to explore and enjoy", "rich history and a vibrant atmosphere, full of charming shops and eateries", etc. may be appropriate for the marketing material of whoever is promoting this place, but they are categorically inappropriate for an encyclopaedia. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:18, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, Cool90630, I'm afraid that none of those will make any difference at all. The only thing that can make it worth spending even a moment more on that draft is to find some independent reliable sources which discuss TVB dramas in 2024 in detail (see WP:42). When you have found such sources, then you need to go through the draft making sure that every piece of information you have mentioned can be found in these sources. (What you have done, as most people do who try to create an article before they have learnt enough about how English Wikipedia works, is to write your draft WP:BACKWARDS).

02:11, 3 January 2024 review of submission by 172.113.157.142

I'm not sure why my entree was declined. I read the explanation by the reviewer, but didn't understand it. I cited 5 different news sources to back up my writing. All the sources are very much so reliable. Long Beach Post is one of the main news sources in Long Beach, California, USA. Glas Srpske is literally one of the oldest and most reputable newspapers in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Similarly, when speaking about film news and film critiques in specific, Film Threat is one of the more known film reviewers.

I was planning to expend on this topic, too, but to my understanding, articles can start small and then be expended on once published. Am I not right about that? I basically didn't want to do too much work on this article, or any other future article for that matter, until they don't get approved/published first because what's the point of spending hours and hours of research and writing just to be declined in the end? Honestly, that is one of my biggest fears. I don't have that much free time on my hands to do all this work and then go nowhere with it. I hope you understand what I'm talking about here.

In any case, I would appreciate if someone could explain to me why this specific entree was declined because if I want to fix it and resubmit it, I obviously would first need to know what was the actual issue with it. I'm not an experienced Wiki writer – this was my first attempt – but I felt I did a pretty good job of finding some legitimate information about the topic and referencing enough of different reliable news sources to back up my findings. 172.113.157.142 (talk) 02:11, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The relevant SNG notability guideline for the subject is WP:NDIRECTOR, which it doesn't meet. Therefore, you need to establish notability following WP:GNG guidelines. The sources you provided don't offer significant coverage of the subject. Now, you need to add at least three reliable secondary sources that provide significant coverage of the subject and are independent of it. Regarding your other question about expanding the article after creation, yes, you can expand an article later, but there should be a minimum context in the article initially. – DreamRimmer (talk) 02:41, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Note that "more people should know about him" is explicitly not a good reason to write a Wikipedia article: it is exactly what Wikipedia means by promotion, which is forbidden.

Why is this article rejected when the entity has credible independent news sources? 2.50.172.101 (talk) 06:06, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

At first glance, this appears to fall under WP:BLP1E as almost all of the sources focus on when Narendra Modi praised him for his skill. However, his involvement in the WorldSkills championship is a second significant event, which could justify a standalone article. Nonetheless, since it was created by a sockpuppet and a previous reviewer suggested disclosing any potential conflicts of interest, it's necessary to disclose any connection you may have with the subject. Please read WP:COI and WP:PAID. – DreamRimmer (talk) 06:45, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

15:22, 3 January 2024 review of submission by Niklas.Andersson.95

Hi!

I want some help with the Theoria page. I have been working on it since last year, but then I needed to focus on other things. Now I want to come back and complete the page. As it stands right now, it says the page needs either more citations or to remove passages that are unsupported or too promotional. Is there anyone who could guide me through each part so I can make the necessary edits?

Thanks in advance! Niklas.Andersson.95 (talk) 15:22, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Niklas.Andersson.95: the feedback provided by the last reviewer is still relevant, and you can improve it accordingly. In summary, please add reliable secondary sources or remove unsourced paragraphs. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:29, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thank you for the quick response! Can I see where these sections need to be either removed or edited, meaning, have they been marked somehow? Niklas.Andersson.95 (talk) 15:42, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Niklas.Andersson.95 Ideally every fact, assertation, paragraph, or section should be appropriately sourced (going in order from most common to least). Qcne (talk) 15:46, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For instance, the 'Abstracting and Indexing' section in the draft lacks sources; hence, you need to add reliable sources for all the entries in this section. If you're unable to find sources to support certain statements, consider removing the unsourced material. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:53, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, this is most helpful, thanks! I am kind of relearning editing on Wikipedia as it has been a while now. Is it okay to ask here again about the editing of the page? Niklas.Andersson.95 (talk) 15:58, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Don't worry at all! Feel free to ask anytime, just make sure to add your question in this same section and ping me so I can help. – DreamRimmer (talk) 16:03, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

yes sorry..... my bad Mayukhjitc (talk) 16:19, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Mayukhjitc If you truly do meet the definition of a notable musician, someone will eventually write about you. Articles are typically written by independent editors wholly unconnected with the subject.
I suggest that you read with a parent or guardian this page about how an article is not necessarily a good thing. There are good reasons to not want one. My advice is that you go on about your music career and forget about Wikipedia, and if you truly are notable, an article will organically develop. Trying to force the issue is rarely successful. 331dot (talk) 16:20, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not every living person merits a Wikipedia article- the overwhelming majority of the 8 billion people on this planet do not.

I would like to understand about the notability reason about your rejection. Obviously, Josammy Technology is the greatest wonder that is accomplished to rehabilitate and satisfy human curiosity in all levels of science and their life. It is notably meant for laymen, scientists, and philosophers who are focusing on the hardest and critical questions relating our existence and our presence in planet. Josammy technology solve all universe enigma and explains the reactivities of dark energy and dark matter. The composition of dark matter and dark energy is 95% of universe. This scientist should understand the reactivities of dark energy otherwise they mislead people. Dark energy is the clue of science and universe comprehension. Josammy technology is the highest world technology that displays and explains all the reactivities of dark energy, dark matter, Higgs Boson reactivities, superconductivities and superfluidity reactivities. However, gravity has been poorly explained since the earliest time mankind still have enigma and low level of science comprehension. I believe it would be worth trying to learn about real universe with technology Josammy. 2600:1700:D3F0:C250:55B1:D3A8:6F69:F490 (talk) 16:59, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dvisionentmt I am sorry but no amount of editing can overcome a lack of notability. I would would strongly encourage you to not write about yourself, writing about yourself means you have a large conflict of interest with the subject of your draft. Seawolf35 T--C 23:04, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello: I am trying to create a page about Eugene Chodorow with a friend of mine. Hee is thee Historian and I am the tech guy.

The draft has been denied seemingly because it does not have enough external links to show that enough people are/were talking about Eugene. I notice that there is a much shorter page for August Henkel that has even fewer links. I am confused.

Can someone please give me some concrete advice on what I need to do to make the Chodorow article acceptable?

Thank you Go1denScarab Go1denScarab (talk) 01:45, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please see other stuff exists. These other articles you have seen may also be inappropriate amd simply not addressed yet. If you want to use other articles as a model or example, use those that are classified as good articles, which have been checked by the community.
The main purpose of an article is to summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage say about the topic. Much of your draft is unsourced. 331dot (talk) 01:57, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A corollary to what 331dot says: if there is little or no independent published information about a subject, then there is little or no material that can go into an article! Wikipedia has little interest in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is almost entirely interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. If enough material is cited from independent sources to establish notability, a limited amount of uncontroversial factual information may be added from non-independent sources.

Dark energy and dark matter represent 95% of universe. However, mankind never understood the reactivities of universe because dark energy governs universe in microscopic scale as well in macroscopic scale. Nobody can assume to understand science and universe without considering the impact reactivities of dark energy. This is a reason to which we have a lot of enigmas in all fields of science. The basic reactivity between proton and electron in the atom is not understood yet. They mislead mankind. The big bang theories and all universal science are misinterpreted, and they seem to be pseudo-science because they never understand the implication reactivities of dark energy, dark matter, Higgs Boson, superfluidity and superconductivity, universe expansion reactivities in the process development of universe. Obviously, with no implication of dark energy no one can assume to understand science and technology. Gravity has been poorly explained since the earliest time, and we still have a lot of enigmas. People tend to be blissfully unaware of their incompetence. This lack of awareness because poor performance is doubly course. Their lack of skills deprives them not only of ability to produce correct responses, but also the expertise necessary to understand that they not producing them. In this planet, people base their perceptions of performance, in part, on their preconceived notions about their wrong skills, because notions often these notions do not correlate with objective performance, they can lead people to make judgements about their performance that have little to do with accomplishment. Obviously, I discovered reactivities of dark energy and all universe and understand the real reactivities of dark energy and all universes. I challenge all mankind on gravity knowledge my legitimate goal is to explains the real reactivities of universe to all people in this planet. Alpha & Omega thermodynamic Sigma ZG Matrix is the highest world technology, explains all universe reactivities and solves all scientific enigmas. I am illuminating this world on Gravity knowledge with implication of dark energy reactivities. What is your problem with my discoveries? I just want to illuminate this world with gravity knowledge? 2600:1700:D3F0:C250:55B1:D3A8:6F69:F490 (talk) 01:57, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. i didn't see a blank page, but rather something I know nothing about. In a previous attempt to find a sandbox, I saw my own introduction. There's a video from Wikipedia that gives directions to get to a sand box that is out of date. Are there current directions that you are sure work?

I would recommend the Visual Editor which is a Microsoft Word-style editor which means you can create and edit articles without having to know our coding language called Wikitext. It is not quite as feature rich as the code editor but should be totally okay for beginners: I use it a lot.
The tutorials for the Visual Editor are in that above link. Your sandbox is located at User:Linddaski/sandbox and feel free to play about with the Visual Editor - that's what the sandbox is for.

Hello!

I did paraphrasing, but since my sources are in Thai, I must be ready with this too: WP:RSUEC and lead me to include this: WP:RSUEQ.

References: 2, 14, 15

Sources: Elle Men, Vogue, Elle

Is it fine, or copyright?

What should I do if it's not allowed to quote and trans for footnotes?

Will it be okay if I put the English trans but change the quote in Thai into something like: (see paragraph with bold parts) or (see the second paragraph from the end part)?

Or not even trans and directly put those see here, see there? Miracle for0110 (talk) 05:54, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Miracle for0110: sorry, I'm really struggling to understand what you're asking, but I'll take a wild guess... Yes, you are allowed to quote a source, as long as you mark it clearly as a quotation. Yes, it's okay to cite non-English sources. Yes, it would help the reviewers (and later readers) if you could include in the citation a short quotation translated into English. Does any of that answer your question(s)? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:47, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your answer and verifying~
And maybe I should have highlighted the copyright part.

You've not actually submitted this for review yet, so I'm not sure where you got the "Review waiting..." message from. By any chance is there a second draft, similarly named?
To submit for review click the blue Submit the draft for review! button. However, don't do that yet as the draft has some inappropriate language and incorrect referencing in it and would be declined in it's present state.
You currently have no references but a bunch of empty in-line citations, which makes me think you perhaps copied the draft from somewhere, maybe Microsoft Word? We need in-line citations for every statement. I would recommend following the tutorial at WP:INTREFVE to understand how to do this.
Some of the inappropriate language that breaks our neutrality policy includes:
- renowned for his appearances
- consistent expert presenter
- diverse portfolio
- featured nostalgic songs
- often sought after for his after-dinner auctioneering expertise and knowledge

You have not properly used in-line citations. Instead, you have used external links and then dumped the bare URLs at the bottom of the article. This is not how articles should be formatted.

Your draft just tells of this software and what it does, it does not summarize significant coverage of it in independent reliable sources showing how it is notable- what do independent sources consider to be important/significant/influential about it? 331dot (talk) 17:48, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced drafts that do not demonstrate notability will not be accepted. If this person meets our definition of a notable musician, you haven't demonstrated that. Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 17:43, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This draft has been rejected and will not be considered further, sorry. Qcne (talk) 17:43, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draft article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:EssentialTech_Centre

Hello, I do not understand the reason for the article being declined: I rewrote the article with numerous additional sources (mostly peer-reviewed journals) and can see little difference between the declined article and the accepted one on a similar topic, here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvard_Humanitarian_Initiative

Many thanks in advance. Louep147 (talk) 18:02, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
