I'd like to know why my topic was deemed non-notable please.

I submitted a page about one of the founders of my field and yet it was determined the topic/person was non-notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kerryjoy (talk • contribs) 18:30, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

It is unreferenced. You need to establish her notability, and WP:ACADEMIC will be of great help to you. You can't just state "Taylor is recognized as a leading scholar in the fields of environmental sociology" and not provide references. Her own work is insufficient to determine whether she is a leading academic in her respective field. Regards, FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 20:57, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

Article Submission Question

Curious as to why the article I submitted for my beer company (which is a company description) was rejected. Any help would be appreciated. THX Anandc7 (talk) 22:24, 7 April 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anandc7 (talk • contribs) 22:22, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

It is non-notable, as stated in the submission's comments section. Also read [[WP:COI]}. Regards, FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 22:41, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

Jean-Louis de Boubers: Revision history

Hello FocusandLearn, Is it possible to remove my oldest contributions from "Jean-Louis de Boubers: Revision history" ([Here]) which are, in fact, the history of my personal sandbox ? There is no direct relationship with the article ? Thank you.--Parsedan (talk) 13:22, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Hmm...let me ping @Technical 13: and see what can be done. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 14:51, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

• What you are looking for is "Revision deletion" and requires an administrator willing to perform it, which is extremely rare and you would have to offer a really good reason. — {{U|Technical 13}} ^{(t • e • c)} 17:46, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

In any case, they're just article edits that happened to be in your sandbox. I don't see any problems with them being seen. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 17:54, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

It's correct. Just more than one year of diverse works from my sandbox since the beginning of my WP life. Anyway, no problem with them being seen. --Parsedan (talk) 18:48, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi FoCuSandLeArN -

I am a new participant with first Wikipedia article pending, so very much appreciate your feedback and help. We think we have a good article submitted, but are new to the whole works including talk discussions like this one. We notice that you left a "comment" concerning our article on climb-and-collapse: "This is a direct copy of this book, although I can't seem to get a hold of it. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 00:03, 8 April 2014 (UTC)" (The link in your comment accesses a PDF document on the same subject)

If your comment contemplates possible matters of copyright, please don't be concerned - I wrote the article accessed by your link, and it (the PDF) is an open-courseware PDF which is intended to be free for educational and non-commercial use. Other possible matters that may be of interest - the linked PDF is not a book and not a "for sale" item in bookstores or online or anywhere else. Instead, it is a short, freely-downloadable and free-for-sharing "executive summary" of the subject matter. The subject matter in our Wikipedia submission is also treated with greater detail and rigor involving references and citations.

Hope the above will be useful.
