Hi @MicrobiologyMarcus, thank you for your comment on my draft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Joel_Mordi. I've made the changes as you advised. Please feel free to offer more suggestions if needed, so I can submit my article for review and get it into the mainspace. Thank you. ~Ana (talk) 11:28, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Christiana Stanley, in my opinion, the draft still reads as promotional and as a WP:BLP, does not meet the minimum standard for inline citations. microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 13:33, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
How to translate Chinese Article about Yuta Jinguji?
Dear Marcus, Thank you for your review! My first attempt to write an article about Yuta Jinguji is declined. In fact, there has been an article about Yuta Jinguji in Japanese, Chinese, Cantonese and Indonesian on Wikipedia. I tried to translate the existing Chinese version in English. I translated, in my opinion, some important parts of the content, since the instruction on the page said I didn't need to translate all of them. However, when I tried to publish it, it showed me "Unknown unrecoverable error has occurred. Error details: You do not have permission to create new pages." Therefore, I copied my translation to start a whole new page and submitted it, which has been declined as your message. May I know how can I get permission to translate the existing page about Yuta Jinguji? Thank you so much! Sincerely, Rae Raekishi0929 (talk) 02:33, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Raekishi0929 and welcome to Wikipedia! There's a couple things that I need to address in regards to the draft you've written.
- First, because you've translated other's work, you need to provide attribution to that work. In the future, you'll need to provide that attribution in the edit summary when you add the text, per the guidance at WP:Copying within Wikipedia § Translating from other language Wikimedia projects. I've done that for Draft:Yuta Jinguji in the edit summary at Special:PermanentLink/1219383695.
- Second, because the subject of the draft article is a living person, the WP:Biographies of living persons (or BLP) policy applies. As such, every statement will need to be verified and cite to an independent and reliable source, using inline citations. The inline citations for the draft only begin about halfway down in the current version.
- By citing to reliable and secondary sources, you will presumably be able to demonstrate WP:Notability of the subject, provided that there is significant coverage (see WP:SIGCOV) of the subject in those articles. Just because the subject has articles on other language projects does not mean that the subject is notable on the English Wikipedia, though other language sources may be used to demonstrate this notability.
- Further, there are a lot of issues with the prose and style of the draft article that, when combined, make it appear more WP:Promotional than encyclopedic. The use of bold and over-linking of the article text is contrary to our WP:Manual of Style, and the external links are unsuitable, especially when linking to the subject's social media, and need to be removed (see WP:NOSOCIAL). In general, I would advise you read the WP:MOS and see what other Wikipedia pages look like to get a sense of writing your first draft article and see what is required to have a draft accepted to the mainspace.
- If you have any further question, I would be happy to advise. Cheers, microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 16:29, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Video content
Hello Marcus,
I'm currently editing the article with new resources to enhance the content. I had a question about a video source... Is it acceptable to include it in the article, and what kind of source does a video represent (in depth, reliable...)?
Cheers
Antho Anthosalba (talk) 07:55, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Anthosalba, this is in regards to Draft:Sofia Pro, correct? In general, use of videos should supplement the text and not serve as the only source of a particular piece of information for an article. It's hard to know specifics without knowing which video you want to use and how you plan on using it. In general, the guidance on Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images is mostly applicable to videos. If you're looking to include the video to supplement the text as a descriptor, all the copyright concerns and free use rational come into consideration. A video in that sense is not so much a "source" as any conclusions drawn from it would be original research. Though if you want to cite the content of the video, we do have templates like {{cite interview}} and {{Cite AV media}} but then you must be careful the information you are citing is most likely primary if it is coming from the subject. Again, this is broad advice, but I'd be happy to offer more guidance, but I would probably need more specifics and context of your intended use. microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 14:03, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Marcus. Yes, it's Sofia's draft. Thank you for the full details. I would like to extract some passages in order to quote them in the article and to complete the design part of the font. I would like to rely on the author's words.
- Thanks again and cheers Anthosalba (talk) 18:17, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
- If you plan on using it as a source (and not including it in the article—my apologies, I misunderstood) then feel free to rely on the {{cite AV media}} or {{cite interview}} templates, whichever you feel would be more appropriate. In that case, consider the guidance on WP:Evaluating sources and what kind of material you are citing using your video source. Consider if it is WP:Independent or not; primary, secondary or tertiary; if it is WP:Reliable. While citing to these sources can be okay, depending on the context, different sources will support the overall article in different ways: non-independent sources may be used to support non-promotional material, but not promotional writing; primary sources may contribute to the understanding or explanation of an article, but would not support any claims of WP:Notability.
- After you've included in, I might be able to offer more guidance but again, this is all speculative and general. Happy writing, microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 18:25, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
Draft page for artist Bonnie Rychlak
I am very confused by your comment about needing footnotes in my article about Bonnie Rychlak. There are 25 footnotes and multiple links to other Wikipedia pages that establish the notability of this individual in TWO careers: artist and curator/writer. Per Wikipedia's criteria, this person is: a person is notable if: "1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors; or 4. The person's work (or works) has been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums." Having worked with the eminent artist Isamu Noguchi for decades, archived his work, created countless exhibitions and publication, and a founding member of the Noguchi Museum, Rychlak is considered one of the most authoritative voices on this artist and is widely cited. If there are specific references that are incorrectly cited, please point those out to me.
I am responding to the call to remedy the gap in Wikipedia entries between male and female artists. There are hundreds of entries of male artists of far less significance with far fewer references that have cleared the bar for this category.
How can I get this entry reviewed by someone in the Women Artists Project, who I think would be in a better position to assess. I have attempted to draw in others on this discussion but am not clear how to do so. Gaw54 (talk) 19:14, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- Gaw54, I've left maintenance tags in response to some my concerns about the article, but if you feel my considerations aren't valid, you are more than welcome to revert my changes and resubmit to allow another editor the chance the review your submission. microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 20:41, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Draft:Canal Boat Diaries: what am I doing wrong?
I thought I've added reliable sources such as links to the programme from Guardian and Daily Mirror news articles? But it's still getting rejected.
