The principle of notability applies to the subject of the article. The principle of verifiability applies to the content of the article. The most basic standard for inclusion in Wikipedia is notability. It is important for reviewers to determine a subject's likely notability right away, to avoid new editors having submissions declined for other reasons, only to find out later that the subject of their submission cannot be accepted because it does not meet the notability guidelines. Many problems found in submissions can be fixed through good editing, but no amount of editing can make an inherently non-notable subject notable!
If what is written in the submission meets the notability guidelines, but the submission lacks references to evidence this, then the underlying issue is inadequate verification and the submission should be declined for that reason. Notability is a higher standard than lacking an indication of importance or significance, which are grounds for speedy deletion in the article mainspace.

Articles require significant coverage
in reliable sources
that are independent of the subject.
關注度
References about the subject — at least one lengthy paragraph, preferably more. Not passing mentions, not directory listings, not just any old thing that happens to have the name in it. Several of them. The subject of the article must be notable.
可靠來源
Published sources that have a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. A major newspaper, a factual, widely-published book, high-quality generally trusted mainstream publications. Not blogs, MySpace, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, fansites, Twitter, wikis, or other sites with user-generated content. The content of the article must be verifiable.
獨立性
Nothing written by the subject, paid for by the subject, or affiliated with the subject. Not their website, and not a press release. The sources must be independent.
特定主題的關注度指引
Wikipedia has some subject-specific notability guidelines. Read through the submission and consider if one or more of the guidelines below applies. If it does, and the submission does not meet the relevant guideline or the General Notability Guideline you can decline the submission for that reason. The following table shows the notability guidelines for specific subjects. If the subject of the submission you are reviewing is not listed in the table below, only apply the general notability guideline.
Decline the submission as about a generally non-notable subject
可供查證
If what is written in the submission meets the notability guidelines, but the submission lacks references to evidence this, then the underlying issue is inadequate verification and the submission should be declined for that reason.
Decline the submission as lacking sufficient references to verify the content.
步驟3:合適度
Now you should read the submission in detail and decide whether it is suitable for Wikipedia. To be suitable, the article must be about a notable subject and be written in an encyclopedic style from a neutral point of view. The most common reasons that a submission is not suitable are provided here.

Decline the submission as having insufficient context to make the subject understandable
Too short, but could be merged into Article
Decline the submission as too short and suggest a suitable title for the content to be merged into (if applicable). Generally, the author should be able to do this themselves.
Decline the submission as not suitable for Wikipedia; consider writing to custom decline reason in these cases, explaining exactly why the submission is not suitable.
"Contentious material about living persons… that is unsourced or poorly sourced — whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable — should be 'removed immediately and without waiting for discussion.'"
If the submission is a BLP policy violation, decline it as such, ensuring you select the checkbox to blank the submission using {{afc cleared}} – this is done as a courtesy to the subject of the submission. Attack pages and entirely negative unsourced BLP are distinct from straightforward BLP violations. They should not be declined as BLP violations, non-notable, or lacking sources. Instead, they should be declined using the specific decline reason for vandalism/negative blp/attack page and tagged for immediate deletion with {{db-g10}}. This can be done using Twinkle, if you have this gadget installed.
步驟4:接受登錄條目
At this point, if you have not found any reason to decline the creation of the article, it should be accepted. Follow the steps here:
Expand this box to learn about accepting a submission
Consider adding categories, and/or appropriate cleanup templates or stub-tags by entering the code in the relevant boxes.
Add any Wikiproject banners that would apply to the article by inserting the template code into the relevant box.
If accepting an article about a person, please ensure you tick the biography checkbox, and select the relevant option from the living person drop-down menu. This ensures such articles are placed in Category:Biography articles of living people.
Click Accept and publish to mainspace. The script will move the article for you, clean it up, create its talk page, grade it, and notify the submission creator.
If you have AWB authorization, you can use AWB to tidy up the new article and carry out typo and general fixes. If you don't have AWB, you can use Auto-Ed to clean up the formatting of pages or do it manually.
If the submission is reasonably well-sourced, has a minimum of 1,500 characters of prose, and is generally interesting, consider nominating the article to appear on the main page as part of Did you know? (see instructions).
已知議題
If a submission, which should be accepted, cannot be moved because the page title is blacklisted, or the page is creation protected, you will get one of the following error messages:
If a proposed article title is triggering the title blacklist, you will see an error message that reads: Error info:hookaborted : The modification you tried to make was aborted by an extension hook. If you try and move the page manually you will see: MediaWiki:Titleblacklist-forbidden-move. Please find an administrator who will be able to assist you.
If the destination page has been creation protected because of repeated recreation, it will be necessary to make a request for unprotection at Wikipedia:Requests for unprotection.
步驟5:其他任務或檢查
Please read Wikipedia's username policy and if you recognize that a user has a prohibited username, tag the user's talk page with {{subst:Uw-username|Reason}}. This tag is also used by Twinkle under: warn → Single issue warnings → {{uw-username}}. If the username is a blatant violation of the username policy, consider reporting the username to usernames for administrator attention.

草稿的提交
Expand this box to learn about draft submissions
Draft submissions are designed to replace the userspace draft option from the article wizard. Submissions are reviewed only after a review is requested by the submitter. After a review is requested, it is reviewed like any other pending submission. If the submission meets the guidelines, it is accepted normally. If it needs improvement, it is declined. All draft submissions not pending review are located in Category:Draft AfC submissions. If the draft has not been edited for more than one week, the draft is automatically declined by ArticlesForCreationBot.
Draft submissions are not meant to replace the current Articles for Creation system. Rather, it is meant to offer new editors a way to create draft articles, without struggling with requested moves once they feel it is ready to be moved to mainspace.
A pending template can be turned into a draft template by replacing the second parameter with the letter "t". NOTE: Please only do this with the creator's permission.
拒絕提交的草稿
When a draft is submitted for review, there are two AFC submission templates. There is a draft submission template, and a normal pending review template. The draft submission template is merely used to keep track of unsubmitted drafts. Once it has been submitted for review, this template should be removed. ArticlesForCreationBot is tasked with removing the draft submission template, so only the pending review template should remain. If a draft submission meets the quick fail criteria, then it is declined like any other submission.

Articles for creation can also be used to submit templates, disambiguation pages and articles for deletion discussions. In these cases, there are no notability issues. You just need to decide whether the page is useful and appropriate to Wikipedia. For these submissions it will most likely be necessary to include a custom decline reason, using the AfC Helper Script. Refer to official guidelines for guidance on when to disambiguation pages or templates. This can be found at: (Wikipedia:Disambiguation or Wikipedia:Template namespace). Articles for deletion discussions may be created on behalf of anonymous users, who cannot start them. Aside from general reasons for declining a submission (empty, gibberish, spam, copyright violations, etc.), AFD submissions should generally be accepted. (See Wikipedia:Deletion policy and instructions for opening an AFD for more information.)
清理提交
The AFC Helper Script is able to clean up the formatting of submissions, including removing userspace/sandbox templates and unnecessary draft templates. From the Review menu, select Other options and then Clean submission. Once the script has finished, reload the page to see a much cleaner submission.
新增問題或評論
If you want to ask the submitter a question, or just make a comment on a submission, click the Comment option from the Review tab.
其他名字空間的提交
Pending submissions that have been created in userspace (including sandboxes) should be moved to the preferred AfC namespace. You will find a pre-loaded link at the bottom of the pending review template to complete this. You may need to select an alternative appropriate name for the submission, based on its content. Note that the AfC Helper Script will not work in non-AfC namespaces. Submissions in other namespaces that contain the {{Afc submission}} template can be moved to AfC space regardless of their status, if it beneficial to do so.
重複提交
Sometimes you will notice two or more different submissions on the same subject created by the same editor. You may notice while trying to move a pending submission from userspace, that the preferred AfC title already exists. This is usually the result of new editors who are unfamiliar with the MediaWiki interface and create new pages rather than editing existing ones. In such cases, you should consider requesting a technical page move or a history merge. Do not create yet another duplicate page, even with a numerical distinguisher. This risks splitting page histories or creating parallel histories and confusing new editors. If you find two pending submissions on the same subject, by the same author, you can decline one of them as a duplicate. If you are unsure about how to deal with duplicates, ask an experienced member of the project or an administrator for assistance.
