01:59:49, 4 August 2022 review of draft by Senpei


Hello, please let me know what the criteria is for "reliable sources." One of the sources came from Newsweek, which is an accredited publication. I am confused as to what media I should include. Please clarify. Thank you.

Senpei (talk) 01:59, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Senpei: you should probably ask the reviewer directly; I couldn't see anything too obviously wrong with the referencing. (Except to say that, per WP:RSP, Newsweek is no longer considered categorically reliable, although to me this particular article seems okay, and I don't think that would have been the reason for declining in any case.) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:51, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for replying! Ok I have sent a direct question to the reviewer and will probably remove the Newsweek citation. Again, thank you for your engagement! Senpei (talk) 16:32, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

06:47:19, 4 August 2022 review of submission by Zohaib Alee

This article is an entity of Neo News which is already published on Wikipedia. This article is about one of its main show "G SARKAR". The program does not have any articles which could state exactly about the program. That's why I am not able to reference it properly. I have also attached some links about the discussions in the program. The show is also available on YouTube and Facebook. Zohaib Alee (talk) 06:47, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Zohaib Alee: this draft has been rejected, and you've just explained why that is. Therefore, what is your question? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:56, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, my bad. I thought you asked me why I want my article to be published. Can you please explain me where I am doing wrong and how should I reference it properly? So it can be published on the website. Zohaib Alee (talk) 07:30, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
By your own contention, it cannot be referenced properly, because, as you say, there are no appropriate sources available to demonstrate notability. Hence, the draft has been rejected and will not be considered for publication. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:56, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

15:27:15, 4 August 2022 review of draft by Meistravels


Hello, can someone take a look at my article and give feedback to help get it published?

Meistravels (talk) 15:27, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Meistravels You have submitted it for a review, which will be done in due course. In the interim you may want to address the paid editing claim. 331dot (talk) 15:30, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@331dot: who thinks alike, again? Oh, yeah. Great minds. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:34, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Meistravels: you have submitted the draft, and it is awaiting review. You don't need to come here to ask for feedback, that will be provided when the review is done.
You should, in the meantime, disclose any relationship you may have with the subject. I will post a message on your talk page with instructions on how to do that. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:31, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
thank you! Meistravels (talk) 15:39, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This draft has been rejected, will not be considered further, and hasn't improved at all from the last time I saw it. Still has unreferenced biographical claims, sources are still absolutely worthless. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 17:26, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Forbes profiles are irrelevant, like literally every other professionally-produced profile in existence (too sparse), and this doesn't address anything about the draft's fatal flaws. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 18:18, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2601:182:CA00:F390:C092:B804:91A2:69D3 (talk) 17:56, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Better sources, for one. We're looking for articles that are (1) in-depth, (2) not routine, (3) independent of the subject, (4) written by an identifiable author and (5) published in an outlet that rigourously fact-checks. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 18:04, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

18:05:23, 4 August 2022 review of draft by Amansaggu26


I am unsure which 'subject editors' for Forbes are allowed on Wikipedia. The subject is cryptocurrency data service provider. These are the links (I asked in the live chat but I was instantly banned for some reason (I assume because I put these links). I hope I do not get banned for asking here. I am only trying. Any help appreciated :-(

18:45:40, 4 August 2022 review of submission by Friendly Engineer

Well my application to have this page posted was denied for lack of reliable sources. I quoted the daily star/express/mail and apparently they're not considered reliable by the person who reviewed my page. So, I've removed the bits including references to those newspapers and have slightly expanded the stuff quoted from Bustle (the only reliable source on the draft according the the reviewer). Aren't facts taken directly from the website reliable, also what about the stuff about the twitter account? That clearly states the number of followers so surely that isn't a questionable source. Also the reviewer didn't consider media bias fact check a reliable source despite a nature article and study commissioned by researchers into the fake news using it as a way to ascertain what's fake news and what's not. Nature article: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-77660-4

I should disclose that I'm a moderator for the DEFCON Warning system but it's a voluntary position. How can I get this article published? Advice would be welcome thank you.

Friendly Engineer (talk) 18:45, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is my first page so I'd appreciate constructive feedback thanks. Friendly Engineer (talk) 18:49, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also if the subject isn't worthy of a wikipedia page can you please tell me how to move it back to my sandbox so it doesn't get deleted because I'm kind of proud of the work I've put into it and don't want it to disappear into nothing Friendly Engineer (talk) 18:51, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
Firstly, the reliability or otherwise of sources is a matter of community consensus, not individual opinion. If you look at WP:RSP, you will see that The Express has been deemed generally unreliable, and the Daily Star and The Mail are actually deprecated. So the reviewer was right to discount those.
Secondly, we need to distinguish between sources that are factually correct and reliable, and can therefore be used to support article contents; and ones that are independent of the subject, and can therefore contribute towards notability per WP:GNG. If an organisation says on their own website (or, at a pinch, their Twitter feed) that their CEO is Jane Doe, we can usually take that as read; similarly, if they say they are HQ'd in Singapore. (If they say they're the leading organisation of their kind in the world, we certainly cannot take just their word for it!) But the point is, however many times you cite their website to support such facts, this does nothing to establish their notability; for that, we need independent and reliable secondary sources.
Finally, thank you for disclosing your connection with the subject. I will post a message on your own talk page which gives instructions for how to disclose this more formally and permanently (this thread will be archived soon), and how to manage the conflict of interest arising from this.

Request on 03:34:54, 5 August 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Википисатель

@Википисатель what is your question? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:47, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@DoubleGrazing My question is that I wanted to create my first article many times Draft:Rakhmatilla Akhmadjonov, but it was rejected due to some errors. I want you to be able to create or accept an article in the AfC, or correct my mistakes in the article. I was registered in the Uzbek Wikipedia, but despite this, I want to create my first article in the English Wikipedia. If you accepted my article or your friends accepted it, I would be very, very happy with you. This gives me strength to contribute to the article, motivation and improvement of the article. Thank you very much! Википисатель (talk) 06:17, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, that's still not a question, but at least we can get started now.
Firstly, your draft was declined, not rejected. This is an important distinction, as it means you can continue working on it, and resubmit when it has been improved.
Secondly, as much as it would give me pleasure to accept a new article, this draft isn't yet ready for that. Don't be discouraged, though; just continue working on it.
Of course, in order for any draft to have a chance of acceptance, it must demonstrate that the subject is notable enough to warrant a place in a global encyclopaedia. This is mostly a question of the quality and quantity of sources: please see the guideline at WP:GNG. Your draft was found lacking in this respect, so you will need to find and cite more and/or better sources.
The draft must also be written in a way which clearly and succinctly describes the subject and explains its significance. Again, your draft needs more work in this area.
Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:33, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@DoubleGrazing I feel like I can't. I'm not 100% English like you. For me once if you accept my essay. You would do great. In honor of the English Wikipedia, I would like to publish my first article. This is my dream, please accept it for the sake of the Uzbek people. But I promise I will edit well. I'm new in this direction. Thanks you very much!

09:07:45, 5 August 2022 review of submission by Rishit.kumar.kundu


Rishit.kumar.kundu (talk) 09:07, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rishit.kumar.kundu You don't ask a question, but your draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. Wikipedia is not a place to tell the world about your book. When independent reliable sources with significant coverage choose on their own to write about your book, and it can be shown that your book meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable book, it might merit an article, but it does not at this time. 331dot (talk) 09:13, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Rishit.kumar.kundu: you don't ask a question, but your draft has been rejected and won't be considered further. Wikipedia is not the place to promote your book. Come back when at least a couple of notable critics have written a review of it in reliable mainstream media. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:13, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

12:01:06, 5 August 2022 review of draft by Shayu.2511


Can you please help me with my draft

Shayu.2511 (talk) 12:01, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Shayu.2511: you need to address the reasons why the draft was declined.
The first thing you have to understand is that writing a Wikipedia article isn't a question of you telling what you know about the subject; it's a question of your summarising what independent and reliable sources have said about the subject. So the first thing you need to do is find several such sources, as the sources you have listed so far are not sufficient. See WP:GNG for more detail on what sort of sources are acceptable.
As you go about summarising these sources, you have to cite each source against the information that it supports, so that reviewers and readers know where the information is coming from, and can verify it if needed. This should ideally be done by way of inline citations and footnotes, of which you currently have none. See WP:REFB for advice on referencing.
There are other things to consider also, but these two — namely, notability and referencing — are critical, so deal with them first and foremost. Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:22, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

what do I need to do differently to get the page accepted? Lognetics (talk) 12:58, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lognetics There is nothing that you can do. No amount of editing can confer notability on a topic. 331dot (talk) 15:15, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

21:16:27, 5 August 2022 review of draft by Imfletch9


This article says it was rejected for not having enough sources quoted. But that was the problem listed last time and I went back in and added 8 different sources from extremely reputable outlets: The New York Post, The Chicago Tribune, The New York Times, The Montreal Gazeette... so I'm not sure what's missing now. Thanks for your help. Imfletch9 (talk) 21:16, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 10:08:10, 6 August 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Rayanfds


hi the above article was not accepted because of "WP:FILM-Lacks critical reception and no reviews from national critics". Actually it is a regional film spoken by only small community of people living in Mangalore-India .These films usually won't make it to national news.So how do i make it get approved?.I added almost all the detailed and citation availabe. Thank you.

Hi @Rayanfds unfortunately, if sufficient sources do not exist to support the film meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines there is nothing you can do to get the article approved. S0091 (talk) 16:33, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am trying to add Oasis Fertility on wikipedia and the platform is not accepting. Its one of the notable hospitals in India and there are many others similar to this that are live. I have submitted at least half dozen of times but its not getting approved.

It really taking lot of stress and pain to convince the wiki team to make this listing live.

Please help us in taking the company live. The company does CSR activities and has one of top3 hospitals in fertility space.

16:18:42, 6 August 2022 review of draft by Rafe1985


I inserted the references with sources but it still says no sources. The information in the content is all my own with information garnered in my academic years.

Rafe1985 (talk) 16:18, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Rafe1985: it doesn't say "no sources", it says "not adequately supported by reliable sources"; meaning, there are some sources listed, but they're either not enough, or aren't being used in a way that adequately supports the contents. Please see WP:REFB for advice on referencing, including how to create inline citations.
Also, you say "the content is all my own with information garnered in my academic years". This is somewhat problematic, as in order to establish the notability of the subject (per WP:GNG), we need to see what other, independent and reliable published sources have said about it, not (just) what you think about it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:05, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Rafe1985 Please see No Original Research (click here). 71.228.112.175 (talk) 08:15, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Khura14: Renaming the article would be akin to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. The name isn't why the draft's been declined/rejected. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 02:13, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Khura14: the reason was lack of notability, as noted in both declines and the final rejection. In any case, as this has now been rejected, continuing to debate the whys and wherefores is somewhat futile, alas. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:35, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A musician is not notable because they associate with other musicians that have articles(not "pages"). For a standalone article about this musician, you must show that they themselves meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable musician. 331dot (talk) 08:14, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

My draft got rejected again for insufficient notability. However, I believe that I have fixed the first reviewer's request for proof of the use of the term "disease modifying treatments", "disease modifying therapies", or any other variations of that term by adding eight more examples of the use of that term beyond the scope of "disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs." These other examples included secondary source references of the "disease modifying treatments" term being used in various other medical literature such as HIV/AIDS, ischemic heart disease, and numerous neurological conditions that are beyond the scope of rheumatoid arthritis and have treatment classes beyond the scope of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. Therefore, I was wondering if I could get more guidance on what more I could do to make the article notable enough to be approved. Thank you very much for your help and time!

04:40:14, 8 August 2022 review of submission by Bennair

I specifically fail to understand why this page is being rejected and considered as promotional. This page is about Union Coop, which happens to be one of the largest Consumer Cooperatives in the UAE today and is prevalent among the Emirati community in Dubai specifically. I will really be thankful if the moderator could point out specific CONTENT which is going against Wiki policy. Thank you for your time and Kind Regards, Bennair (talk) 04:40, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bennair The entire draft is promotional. Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about something and what it does(such as, among other things, listing its press releases). A Wikipedia article must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability- in this case, the definition of a notable organization. The sources you offered are entirely announcements of routine business activities, which does not establish notability. 331dot (talk) 08:11, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Wikipedia Team,

We have revised our article following the values and ethos of Wikipedia.

Could you please review it?

Thank you, Dimitris

@Dcontu Not a formal review, per se, but all the same I'd say TRIL's earlier rejection still stands. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:44, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
One of the "values and ethos" of Wikipedia is not plagiarising content. Another is writing descriptively and neutrally, rather than this advertizement/proselytising you've written. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 18:46, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

19:39:24, 8 August 2022 review of draft by Notadean


Hi - this if my first submitted article and I'm actually not sure what I/we can do to convince the reviewer that the topic is appropriate for Wikipedia. There are numerous newspaper articles, including both local coverage and US-national news coverage, of the events discussed and outlined in the draft article, including both factual primary and secondary review/opinion articles. The article itself provides the history of an important academic program at one of of the two major universities in Montana, from it's creation in 2000 to it's dissolution in 2019. Over that period, the program trained thousands of students and performed nationally and internationally recognized biomedical research in the area of Neuroscience. In addition, the program was the first Neuroscience training program (undergraduate and graduate level) in the state of Montana, making it an historically important program.

I'm glad to take a stab at revising, but really not sure where to start -- any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Notadean (talk) 19:39, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Notadean! The first thing I notice while looking at the draft is that there are a lot of completely unsourced paragraphs. For example, the history section doesn't have any references. In general, you should try to make sure that at least every paragraph has an inline citation that supports it.
You can also try to look at similar articles to see how they are laid out. If you look at Department of Journalism, City University and Department of Law, University of Calcutta, you can see they are much shorter and just summarize the information. >>> Ingenuity.talk(); 19:52, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ingenuity I would gently suggest that when you advise someone to look at other articles as a model, that you suggest they use those classified as good articles, to reduce the odds they will pick one that is not a good example. 331dot (talk) 20:00, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Notadean (ec) A Wikipedia article about a university department should summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about it, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable organization. It sounds like it could be notable, so you are partway there, but the sources and article content are the issue. Most of your sources seem to be either primary sources, which do not establish notability, or news reports that mention the department. What are your three best non primary sources?
The list of faculty plus their brief bios should be removed. 331dot (talk) 20:00, 8 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

00:56:48, 9 August 2022 review of submission by Joshua Grech

Hello reviewer, I am trying to submit my article 'Rolling Line' article for creation however I am having trouble with its acceptance due to lack of 'reliable sources'. This is not my first time publishing articles for Wikipedia as I have successfully published the article: 'Burnett_railway_bridge' however the article 'Rolling Line' article is about a video game which has different types of sources.

I have attempted to use secondary sources to achieve a neutral point of view, although due to the nature of the topic (being a video game) most sources would appear as if they were a promotion of the game. In spite of that, I had tried to use articles which would give feedback in both the pros and cons about the game. I had only referred to primary sources when regarding the development of the game and gameplay elements.

Please let me know how I can resolve this problem and perhaps which articles would be the best for citing. Cheers


Joshua Grech (talk) 00:56, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Joshua Grech: if you cannot find suitable sources to satisfy the WP:GNG notability standard, then you cannot publish an article on this topic, it really is that simple. (Okay, yes, there are some exceptional topics that are considered inherently notable, but alas video games isn't one of them.) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:47, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 07:40:55, 9 August 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Lucynder


I published an article twice but it keeps getting declined. I have followed all the criteria needed for drafting an article. Why does it keep getting declined?


Lucynder (talk) 07:40, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Lucynder: three of your sources don't work, one is used twice (as in, with a duplicate rather than named cite), one talks about the issue of human trafficking rather than the film, and the YouTube trailer is meaningless in what comes to supporting the draft; this leaves basically just one valid source, which is not enough to establish notability. And given the problems with some of the sources, this also means that much of the content cannot be verified. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:04, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
How do I delete the duplicate of the first article (the duplicated one)? Can the sources (references) that do not work be highlighted? Lucynder (talk) 08:16, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have highlighted the non-working ones, marking them as failed (this shows up in the text, right after the source is cited, rather than in the References section).
You don't need to delete the duplicate source, I was just making the point that there is one less source cited than what is listed in the References. If you want to use named references, see WP:NAMEDREFS. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:32, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

18:48:33, 9 August 2022 review of submission by Livitshiro

I am wondering why the page was rejected, I am aware that the sources are fairly exclusive to the esport it belongs to but that is because they are the most relevant references and since all of his teammates have their own pages I think it should be accepted but if it's not I can work with more specific examples of what is wrong so that I may add or adjust as needed. Livitshiro (talk) 18:48, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Livitshiro: the problem with niche publications is that they (perhaps understandably) think everything in their space, in this case esports, is newsworthy; they also tend to accept a lot of press releases and other marketing material, without applying any real journalistic judgement. Furthermore, many of the sources cited in this draft are primary, and don't contribute to notability in any case.
The whole thing is also very promotional in nature, and quite informal in tone, and could IMO just as well have been declined for those reasons. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:47, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

20:58:51, 9 August 2022 review of submission by WarMagician


I'm seeking advice on how to get this page published. I have limited the page to the bare minimum to constitute a page. All of the sections are factually accurate, and I've included citations to external sources to back these up (such as Companies House details, Times Educational Supplement articles, government website list awards status, etc). I've avoided any language which would constitute an advertisement. Could I trouble a reviewer to advise on what I should do to get this one over the line. Any help gratefully received!

WarMagician The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. No amount of editing can confer notability on a topic. Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about an organization and what it does. Any article about an organization must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the organization, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable organization. A small number of high quality sources is preferable to a large number of low quality sources. The reviewer rejected the draft because they think the changes of establishing notability are low.

My submission was declined for lack of notability. I think the refrences in the page are enough to show that this subject is notable. I believe that this complies with the notability guidelines. I do not why it was considered not notable by the reviewer. Rudyon (talk) 00:03, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Rudyon: sorry, but a CoHo record and three pieces of churnalism do not establish notability. Nor is there anything particularly encyclopaedic in the draft; it simply states that the company exists and provides some services. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:21, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
